Massacre in Gaza

We are witnessing the systematic massacre of Palestinians in Gaza. This slaughter follows almost two years of blockade which has prevented essential supplies of food, fuel and medicines from reaching the Palestinian people in Gaza and causing untold suffering.

During the six-month long ceasefire, Israel killed 22 Palestinians in Gaza. Since the ceasefire ended, Israeli F-19 jets have dropped thousands of tons of bombs on Gaza, one of the most populous places on earth, killing over 300 Palestinians.

The Israeli government is launching this horrific military assault under the pretext of 'security', and action against the rockets launched from Gaza, which have killed two Israelis in the last few days (and 20 in the last eight years).

END OUR GOVERNMENT'S SILENCE - TAKE ACTION NOW!

WRITE TO YOUR MP urging them to insist that Prime Minister Gordon Brown acts to ensure:

* An immediate end to Israel's military assault on Gaza
* An immediate end to the blockade and siege on Gaza
* An end to Israel's violations of international law
* An end to Israeli occupation.
