GAZA

BBC - Some 300 British Jews have signed a petition condemning Israel's
military actions in the Gaza Strip. The group, including dozens of
well-known figures, says it has "watched with horror" Israel's response
to the capture of a soldier. Palestinians in Gaza were being subjected
to "collective punishment" because of the actions of militants, said
Jews for Justice for Palestinians. . . The petition, which appeared as a
full-page advert in Thursday's Times Newspaper, condemns the way Israeli
forces have responded to the capture of Cpl Gilad Shalit. . . The Times
advert, which cost US $18,400, is signed by well-known figures in
British society including playwright Harold Pinter, film director Mike
Leigh, historian Prof Eric Hobsbawn, and actor Miriam Margoyles. The
group also includes a large number of academics. . .

Dan Judelson, spokesman for Jews for Justice said that many people
believed the attacks on Palestinian infrastructure were less about
liberating Cpl Shalit and more about seeking a pretext to over-throw
Hamas, the militant Islamist organisation elected to run the Palestinian
Authority. "Whatever your views are of Hamas, and I of course do not
share the politics of Islamists, you cannot kick out
democratically-elected governments because you do not agree with them.".
