Sources Claim Hezbollah Prepared To Open Front With Israel To Relieve Pressure On Syrian President

Sources close to Lebanese Shite group Hezbollan have said that the organisation may open a front agaisnt Israel to deflect pressure from Syrian president Bashar al Assad if his position becomes significantly threatened. The Syrian leader has been rocked by pro democracy protests in recent weeks and months that have claimed the lives of 1,500 protesters according to some sources.

The source, which claimed that the US lost an alley in ousted Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarrak and were now seeking to even the balance of power by toppling Assad, said "the region now is at war, a war between what is good and what is backed by Washington... Syria is the good".

Syria is one of Hezbollah's major allies and provides significant funding and arms to the group in their wars with Israel, the latest of which was in 2006. Hezbollah is also dependent on Syria to allow the transfer of arms from its other major regional ally, Iran, into Lebanon.

In turn Syria has used Hezbollah as a means of retaining influence in Lebanon after it was forced to withdraw from the region after the assination of Lebanese pro independence President Rafiq Hariri in 2005. Both Syria and Hezbollah have been implicated by the UN Special Tribunal for Lebanon as having roles in the assassination.

Questioned as to whether the groups support for Assad was inconsistent with its support for other "Arab Spring" pro democracy movements in Egypt and Bahrain the source claimed there was no contradiction. "When the regime is against Israel and is committed to reforms then Hezbollah decision is to be by the side of the people and the leadership through urging them for dialogue and partnership," the source claimed.

Hezbollah receive wide support from many in the region due to their role in expelling Israel from Southern Lebanon in 2000 and repelling an Israeli attack in 2006.

Lebanon has recently announced a new government dominated by Hezbollah sypathisers following the withdrawel of the group from Lebanons previous government in Febuary.

OIC: “Water Situation in Gaza Deteriorating”

The OIC said that it is essential to establish plants to desalinate seawater in order to compensate for the sharp need of fresh water in Gaza, and called for halting the drilling of new water wells as they undermine and drain the underground water reservoir.

The OIC added in its report that some international and local organizations played in May an important role in the process of reconstructing Gaza and its infrastructure although the Israeli siege in hindering significant reconstruction and development projects.

It said that the ongoing Israeli violations, the illegal siege and attacks, are leading to civilian casualties while attacks against Palestinian fishermen are still ongoing as the army is opening fire at them and confiscating their boats.

The OIC added that the increasing number of solidarity ships who made it into Gaza, and the ongoing preparations to send for aid ships, reflects the increasing international awareness, and the international support for ending the illegal siege.

It further highlighted the suffering of the Palestinians in Gaza as a result of the ongoing electricity crisis in the coastal region.

The Gaza Strip is still lacking hundreds of medications and spare parts for medical equipment.

Approximately 178 types of medications and 123 types of medical supplies have run out, and an additional 69 types of medications and 70 types of medical supplies are expected to run out within the next three months, the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza reported last week.

Over 300 patients have died, since Israeli imposed the siege on Gaza in 2007, due to a lack of essential medical equipment. The patients were denied permits to leave the Gaza Strip to seek medical attention elsewhere.

'Freedom Flotilla 2' prepares to sail to Gaza in next few days

At a recent press conference by an Israeli naval commander, the commander said he did not believe that the flotilla would contain weapons, and acknowledged that the passengers on the boats are known peace activists committed to non-violence. But the Israeli government continues to warn that it will attack the flotilla with military force, and has pre-emptively blamed the volunteer participants in the flotilla for any Israeli attack on the boats.

US delegation participant Robert Naiman responded, “If you concede that we are peace activists who are not carrying weapons, what exactly is the urgency to confront us with force? Why not just let us proceed to Gaza unmolested? Does it pass a 'straight face test', as Speaker Boehner might say, to claim that it will set a horrible international legal precedent binding the Israeli government if you were to let us pass unmolested to Gaza, having conceded that we are peace activists who are not carrying weapons?”

Last year, a similar Freedom Flotilla was attacked by Israeli forces and nine peace activists were killed by Israeli commandoes.

In a statement by the US State Department on Wednesday, the US government mentioned last year's attack and warned US citizens against participating in the flotilla, stating, “U.S. citizens are advised against traveling to Gaza by any means, including via sea. Previous attempts to enter Gaza by sea have been stopped by Israeli naval vessels and resulted in the injury, death, arrest, and deportation of U.S. citizens. U.S. citizens participating in any effort to reach Gaza by sea should understand that they may face arrest, prosecution, and deportation by the Government of Israel.”

An investigation by the Turkish government of last year's Israeli attack released its results two weeks ago, showing that the nine men killed were hit by a total of 30 bullets fired at close range, with five of the men killed by shots to the head. The 19-year old American citizen who was killed, Fulkan Dorgan, was killed by five bullets fired at a distance of 45 cm to his face, the back of his head, his leg and his back.

The US government has never investigated the Israeli attack on last year's flotilla, and has repeatedly voiced support for Israel's actions. Israel's Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu reiterated that the US is Israel's “best friend”, in his visit to the US two weeks ago. Last week, US President Barack Obama told a room full of campaign contributors from the US Jewish community, all of whom donated around $25,000 to participate in the event, that the US would remain a steadfast and uncompromising supporter of Israel.

In his statement, Flotilla participant Robert Naiman contradicted Israeli claims that their blockade on the Gaza Strip has been eased recently, saying, “Exports from Gaza remain largely blocked; restrictions on Gazans' travel to the West Bank and East Jerusalem for work, study, and medical care remain; imports of construction materials remain largely blocked; restrictions on Gaza's farming and fishing remain. Unemployment in Gaza is among the highest in the world, the UN reports.”

Palestinian unity government to be formed by June 6th

Monday May 30, 2011 11:08 by Saed Bannoura - IMEMC News

The two major Palestinian political parties, Fateh and Hamas, have announced that they are in the final stages of negotiation on a national unity agreement, and will formally institute the unity government on June 6th.

Israel and the US have both expressed discomfort with the idea of a national unity government, and the Israeli Prime Minister and other officials have stated that they will not negotiate with any Palestinian national government, as they consider Hamas to be a terrorist organization due to the group's previous involvement in attacks against Israeli civilians.

Hamas has not been involved in attacks on Israeli civilians since 2005, and in 2006 was elected in democratic elections to lead the Palestinian government. Although they formed a government in the Gaza Strip, they were prevented from doing the same in the West Bank, where the Israeli-supported Fateh government took power.

Since that time, the two parties have been at odds, with in-fighting claiming some 200 lives over the last four years. Several previous attempts at national unity governments, including a call by political prisoners led by Fateh activist Marwan Barghouthi, were unsuccessful at bringing about a unity government.

Now, officials from both major parties say that the leadership for the new government has been selected, and will be submitted to the Palestinian Legislative Council. After a two hour meeting in Gaza City, at the house of Hamas leader and elected Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, representatives from the two parties said the new government will be made up of representatives from both parties, serving a term of one year.

Nabil Sha'ath, of the Fateh party, called the agreement a “good and positive sign”, and Haniyeh of Hamas agreed, telling reporters after the meeting that he believed the national unity government was a “strategic option and a national necessity”.

Israeli government officials withheld some of the Palestinian Authority's funds, which the Israeli government controls, upon the announcement of a national unity government. The funds have since been released, but Israeli officials say they will again withhold the money if the government is put in place.

The Palestinian government, regardless of its makeup, does not control any actual nation, but two distinct territories, the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which remain under Israeli military occupation. The Israeli military controls all aspects of life in the Occupied Territories, including birth and death certification, marriage, vehicle registration, courts, passport issuance, border control, control of movement within the Territories, which is severely restricted, and virtually every other aspect of governance.

Rafah Crossing Opens Allowing Hundreds Travel, Many For Fist Time In 4 Years.

Monday May 30, 2011 11:23 by Kevin Murphy - IMEMC and Agencies

After four years of closure the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the Gaza strip was opened on Saturday allowing hundreds of Gazans to travel into Egypt

There were joyous scenes at Rafah over the weekend as hundreds of Gazans took advantage of the relaxed restrictions on movement previously imposed at the behest of Israel by Egypt’s ousted Mubarak government. The new Egyptian interim government has allowed women and men aged under 18 and over 40 unrestricted travel between Egypt and the besieged Palestinian hamlet for the first time in four years.

The opening of Rafah was one of the incentives posed by the Egyptian government to Hamas in return for signing the recent reconciliation deal with Fatah. It was announced in April that the border was to be opened.

Talking to al-Jazeera, many undertaking the crossing spoke of how it was the first time they have been able to see family in Egypt or travel abroad since the siege was tightened four years ago in response to the capture of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit by Hamas.

The opening was warmly welcomed by Gaza citizens, business men and its de facto ruling government party Hamas.

Member of the Hamas political bureau Ezzet al Rasheq commented on his twitter feed that “the Egyptian decision to open the Rafah crossing permanently is a brave initiative and a new success for the Egyptian revolution after its success in effecting the Palestinian reconciliation”. According to Hareetz, Hamas also held a festive ceremony to celebrate Egypt’s decision.

The Gazan Federation of Businessman, speaking to Maan news agency, welcomed the opening of the crossing saying it would aid attempts to renew civilian infrastructure destroyed during Israel’s Operation Cast Lead in Gaza in 2008/09. A 1 $Billion investment package has been announced by the Palestinian Investment Fund to help undertake the reconstruction.

Israel has expressed concern at the opening of the border and has charged Egypt with responsibility for preventing the smuggling of weapons in and out of the area which is controlled by Hamas. In a statement to reporters in Jerusalem Israeli Home Front Defence Minister Matan Vilnai said that “the moment the Egyptians opened, they are responsible”.

Israel has called for international observers and Israeli camera monitoring to return to monitoring the border however Hamas has said they are not needed at this time, according to Hareetz. "The Palestinians have proved their ability to operate the Rafah crossing," said Hamas Foreign Minister Ghazi Hamad.

A 2005 agreement between the PA and Israel established a European Border Monitoring group at the Rafah border. However the group stopped its work after Hamas took control of the area in 2007.

The opening of the border does signal an end to the siege on the Gaza strip. The Rafah crossing remains to be closed to trade. The main crossing for commercial goods remains to be through the Israeli crossing at Eratz. Israel maintains control over electricity and water in the area.

The UN and International Red Cross have deemed the blockade of Gaza to be illegal under international law and called for its ending.

NAKSA DAY

Tuesday May 24, 2011 11:34The International Solidarity Committee, the international activist organisation for Palestine, has called for solidarity marches around the world with upcoming “Naksa” events in the Middle East.
The group, which maintains a large international activist presence in the West Bank, has called on global demonstrations to Israeli embassies around the world on June 5th, “Naksa Day”, to show solidarity with refugee’s seeking a return to their homes.

Naksa, meaning “setback”, marks the forced exodus of 300,000 Palestinians during the 1967 Six Day War between Israel and the Arab states. While it is normally marked on Nakba Day (May 15th), this year the group for the “Third Palestinian Intifada” has called on Palestinian refugees to mark the day by repeating actions taken during this year’s Nakba Day when they marched to the Israeli border in Lebanon, Syria, and in the Gaza Strip.

Referring to the events on Nakba Day the group noted that “Israeli forces killed at least 15 demonstrators on three borders (with occupied Gaza, Lebanon, and between Syria and the occupied Golan Heights), wounded hundreds more with live gunfire, artillery shells, and tear gas, and unleashed a wave of arrests and repression in the occupied West Bank. This massive violence could only have been planned as a show of brute force”.

In the statement the group said that international law showed clear obligations on Israel to allow Palestinian Refugees to return to their homes.

The International Solidarity Committee engages in peaceful protest and civil disobedience in solidarity with Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. The group’s notable members have included Rachel Corrie, the American activists crushed under an Israeli bulldozer in Gaza in 2000, and Vittorio Arrigoni, an Italian activist who was killed by Salafist elements in Gaza this year.

The day will be a litmus test as to what extent rumours of a third Palestinian uprising, or Intifada, are based on a reality on the ground. It will also shine a light on the question as to whether the recent events in the region, fuelled by social networking technology, have spread to Palestinians in the Occupied Territories and more broadly in the region.

SALAM FAYYAD DISERANG SAKIT JANTUNG DI A.S

Tuesday May 24, 2011 10:53

Sources report that Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad has suffered heart problems whilst visiting the US.Fayyad was visiting the United States in order to attend his son's graduation from a US college. He was taken to Seton Medical Center in Texas due to 'severe pains in the chest' according to a spokesperson.

Fayyad allegedly suffered a heart attack whilst in hospital where tests indicated a blockage in a coronary artery. A catheterization was performed in order to unblock the artery. Fayyad is a heavy smoker, which may have contributed to his illness. He has been Palestinian PM since 2007, although his political future is unclear in light of the recent Palestinian unity deal.

Yahudi Langgar Kanak-kanak Palestin Dengan Subaru

Dr. Ghassan Al Khateeb Media, Spokesperson of the Palestinian Authority, told China’s Xinhua agency that that the PA had filed a complaint to the Israeli branch of Subaru over the ad that mocks the severe injuries of two children from Jerusalem, who were rammed, in October 2010, by a Subaru vehicle driven by David Be’eri, Director-General of the Elad settlement organization.

The settler was briefly detained by the Israeli police, and was released after he claimed that he had no other choice but to ram them with his car “as he had to defend himself after the two children hurled stones at him while driving it”, the Arabs48 news website reported.

Al Khateeb described the commercial as immoral and as an act that disregards the life of the Palestinian people.

He added that such ads encourage settler violence against the Palestinians, including running over Palestinian children, Xinhua said.

The Israeli Radio reported Thursday that spokesperson of Subaru in Israel denied any relation to the ad, and stated that the company did not publish this ad and protested against attempts to harm its reputation.

The Gulf News reported on its website on Friday that the advertisement had “resurfaced a few days ago on a Facebook page for the Subaru car company in Israel, with some words in Hebrew. (We will see who will stand in front of you).

The Gulf News added sources told it that once the company noticed the picture on its Facebook page, it immediately removed it.

The sources added that Subaru-Israel also asked Palestinian media agencies to remove the picture from their websites, but they refused, Gulf News said.

The ad also led Peace Now Movement in Israel to protest against it. Peace Now spokesperson, Hagit Ghufran, stated that this ad “is a clear evidence of the existence of fanaticism in Israel’s Subaru branch, especially in areas where there is conflict with the Palestinians.

Ghufran added that such act will lead to more violence, especially against children.

Khalid Quzmar of the International Movement to Defend Children, called for taking the people behind the ad to court, adding that, “unfortunately going to the law through Israeli courts is useless because Israeli courts are serving the occupation which gave a cover to such behaviors." Xinhua said.

Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, also denounced the advertisement describing it as “propaganda that reached to the leveled of encouraging the killing of Palestinian children”.

Alleged Subaru Car Ad In Israel Shows “Power” By Running Over Palestinian Children
Saed Bannoura, IMEMC & Agencies, Fri, 22 Apr 2011 03:38:45

A new advertisement in Israel, reportedly published by Subaru-Israel facebook page, meant to show the “power and durability” of the Japanese Subaru car, caused outrage after showing a Subaru driven by a Jewish settler striking two Palestinian children in occupied East Jerusalem, Press TV reported. The advertisement was allegedly published by the Subaru dealership in Israel, featuring an incident that took place last year when the settler struck two Palestinian children with his Subaru car.

The settler, known to the Israeli police, fled the scene after injuring the two children. The attack was capture on video.

“We Will See Who Can Stand Against You”, was written in the right corner of the horrific picture of a Palestinian child flying into the air after being rammed by the settlers’ Subaru.

The victims were two Palestinian children aged 10 and 12. The 10-year-old child suffered a broken leg. The settler is at large, and is not even wanted for his crime.

The Fateh movement of President Mahmoud Abbas slammed the Subaru ad and described it as an act of aggression, promoting the harm and murder of Palestinian children.

The settler who rammed the children with his car was identified as David Be’eri, Director-General of the Elad settlement organization, an extremist settler real estate corporation that heavily promotes removing the Palestinians from Palestine, especially from Jerusalem, and replacing them with Jewish settlers.

The Elad movement heavily encourages Jewish settlers to move into Palestinian neighborhoods in occupied East Jerusalem, and provides them with financial support. Most of its financial comes from Zionist groups in the United States.

Wednesday December 01, 2010 05:03 by Saed Bannoura - IMEMC & Agencies

Palestinian sources reported that resident Miriam Al Hour was kidnapped by the Israeli soldiers on Monday while visiting her detained husband, Jamal Al Hour, at the Nafha Israeli prison.

Persiapan Kenderaan A2G VP5

17 Sept 2010.

Hari ini peserta Konvoi telah menghabiskan seharian mendaftar dengan Viva Palestina UK dan mempersiapkan kenderaan yang akan digunakan sepanjang perjalan dari London ke Gaza.

Mereka telah memulakan hari dengan bersolat jamaah bersama-sama dan diikuti dengan bacaan ma’thurat di penginapan B&B Willesden. Seterusnya para pesertaberkongsi tazkirah yang telah disampaikan oleh Ameer MSM, Saudara Abdul Azim Ismail. Saudara Azim telah mengingatkan tentang pentingnya meluruskan niat sepanjang masa. Banyak ruang-ruang untuk tergelincir dari niat asal termasuk syubhat dan shahwat.

Setelah bersarapan pagi Nasi Lemak, mereka telah bertolak ke Luton dan sampai di tempat berkumpul di Guardian Business Park dan buat kali pertama melihat sendiri kenderaan yang akan mereka gunakan. Mereka melahirkan rasa bersemangat dan teruja apabila turut melihat beberapa peserta dari pelbagai negara telah mula berkumpul. Antara Negara yang diwakili termasuklah dari Northern Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Kuwait dan dari seluruh pelusuk United Kingdom.

Kenderaan yang akan mereka gunakan terdiri dari Van komersial Nissan Interstar. Sebanyak 6 Van telah dibeli oleh pihak Viva Palestina UK bagi pihak Viva Palestina Malaysia. 3 daripadanya ditaja oleh Aqsa Syarif hasil kutipan dari rakyat Malaysia.

Setelah melihat secara ringkas kenderaan yang akan digunakan, mereka bergerak ke hypermarket berdekatan untuk membeli beberapa lagi barang keperluan yang akan digunakan sepanjang konvoi.

Mereka kemudiannya bergerak semula ke tempat berkumpul untuk urusan pendaftaran. Disana mereka telah bertemu dengan peserta konvoi Viva Palestina Malaysia yang lain iaitu Puan Azra Banu, Puan Azura dan Saudara Faisal. Beberapa borang perlu dilengkapkan dan kemudian bayaran pendaftaran dibuat. Viva Palestina UK kemudiannya telah mengagihkan set pelekat kenderaan untuk diletakkan bagi mengenalpasti kenderaan konvoi. Pihak Viva Palestina juga telah menyediakan pelekat tersendiri bagi kenderaan konvoi Malaysia.

Proses menyiapkan pelekat di kenderaan konvoi memakan masa yang agak lama. Walaupun meletihkan tetapi semua peserta merasa seronok. Ini juga merupakan peluang para peserta mengenali lebih mendalam hati budi peserta yang lain sebelum perjalanan bermula. Mereka dibantu oleh pelajar-pelajar Malaysia yang turut datang bukan dahaja dari sekitar London, juga sejauh Loughborough, Bath dan Southampton.

lemang dan rendang yang disediakan oleh keluarga Timbalan Ameer MSM, Saudara Azman Ali. Untuk makan malam, mereka telah dihidangkan pula dengan nasi pilau, ayam dan kambing bakar.

Setelah selesai semua urusan, peserta konvoi telah bertolak pulang ke penginapan di Willesden. Peserta telah sempat singgah di rumah En Mahfuzh untuk kudapan. Mereka sampai di tempat penginapan sekitar jam 11 malam.

Sementara para peserta mula berehat, ketua Konvoi sempat merakam wawancara dengan MSM tentang dakwah dan tarbiah. Video tersebut akan dikongsikan sedikit masa lagi.

Keseluruhannya, hari ini merupakan hari yang meletihkan tetapi sangat menceriakan dan memberi semangat. Semoga semangat ini dapat sedikit sebanyak menyuntik tenaga buat perjalanan mereka.

Ketibaan Konvoi di London Disambut Pelajar Malaysia

Sep 17 |14:01

16 September 2010 – Konvoi Darat Aqsa 2 Gaza VP5 selamat tiba dari Doha dengan Qatar Airways tepat jam 1.02 petang waktu UK dengan suhu tempatan sekitar 15C. Rombongan disambut oleh Ameer Majlis Syura Muslimiun UK & Eire (MSM) Saudara Abdul Azim Ismail dan beberapa pelajar Malaysia di London-Gatwick Airport. Sebaik sampai mereka menunaikan solat berjamaah di Multy-faith hall yang diimamkan oleh Ustaz Rofazlin Jusoh (Sukarelawan dari AQSA Johor).

Seterusnya mereka dibawa dengan menaiki 3 buah kereta ke penginapan yang disediakan oleh MSM di Willesden London. Sepanjang perjalanan hampir 1 jam setengah ke penginapan, para sukarelawan berpeluang menikmati pemandangan landskap UK yang kebetulan cuaca cerah, seolah-oleh menyambut ketibaan para sukarelawaan Malaysia. Ketibaan mereka diraikan

dengan jamuan makan petang sambil beramah mesra.

Ujian Pertama Kumpulan Sukarelawan AQSA

Sebaik sahaja tiba di lapangan terbang, salah seorang dari anggota sukarelawan iaitu Hj Norazmi Talib telah ditahan untuk soal-siasat pihak imigresen UK. Ketua konvoi, PM Dr Mohd Zin , meyakini bahawa semua anggota sukarelawan telah terlebih dahulu dipastikan memiliki semua dokumen perjalanan yang lengkap, termasuk pendaftaran dengan Viva Palestina UK.

Kemungkinan besar insiden tersebut hanyalah suatu pemeriksaan rawak yang dijalankan secara rutin oleh pihak berkuasa UK. Harapan beliau insiden tersebut menjadi pengalaman berharga dan diambil secara positif walaupun terpaksa menunggu hampir lima jam sebelum dilepaskan pada jam 5.20 petang.

Ujian kecil tersebut tidak mematahkan semangat mereka walaupun para sukarelawan pada peringkat awalnya agak cemas. Bantuan dan nasihat dari Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Task Force Konvoi AQSA di Malaysia PM Dr Hafidzi dan Viva Palestina UK telah diperolehi dan sedikit sebanyak membantu menyelesaikan masalah tersebut.
