*** November 9th - International Day of Protest Against Israel's Apartheid Wall ***
Leading Palestinian activist Dr Mustafa Barghouti has called for an international day of protest against the "Apartheid" Wall being built in the Occupied Territories by Ariel Sharon. The wall is a symbol of the barbaric apartheid system being imposed on the Palestinian people. According to existing plans Israel is planning to build 360km of fences and walls to imprison the Palestinians. At least 295,000 Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem will be completely isolated from the rest of the West Bank. At least 10% of land in the West Bank will be confiscated by Israel because of the route of the wall. Many people willl lose access to farmlands, orchards and ground wells. *** Melbourne Protest *** Build a symbolic "wall" blocking sections of Brunswick St to protest Israel's Apartheid Wall and inform the public. 12pm, Sunday November 9th Cnr Brunswick and Johnston Sts Fitzroy.
