Death of Khader Adnan, Palestinian political prisoner, hunger striker, and member of Palestinian Islamic Jihad

May 10, 2023
In the early hours of 2 May, 2023, Khader Adnan, after 86 days on hunger strike, finally succumbed to the terrible torture on his body, and passed away, kept from his family and any humanitarian care or assistance, in isolation in an Israeli jail. Although 237 Palestinian prisoners have died In Israeli custody since 1967, he was the first Palestinian to die on hunger strike in 40 years. There has been an outpouring of grief and anger throughout Palestine, with protests held in countless towns,… Read more

From anti-Semites

Anti-semitic Argentine butchers worked closely with Israel

May 22, 2013
Videla reserved special treatment for Jews, and among those kidnapped there were approximately 1300 Jews, significantly higher than their share of the population. They also received special treatment in terms of torture. There is a slight irony that this antisemitic ruler secured the fervent cooperation of the Israeli government. In late 1977 the Ambassador to Buenos Aires [Ram] Nirgad declared that "since the military junta came to power there has been an improvement in the relations between… Read more

Church of Scotland General Assembly slams Israeli apartheid and land theft - suggests BDS needed

May 17, 2013
The Inheritance of Abraham? A report on the 'promised land' is a ground-breaking report by the Church and Society Council that was overwhelmingly agreed this weekend at the annual General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in Edinburgh. In adopting the report with only a handful of votes for remitting it, the Church of Scotland rejects the use of the Hebrew Bible to “sanction…occupation of land which involved the displacement of some 750,000 people living there”.

2018: CAMPAIGN PRESSURED ARGENTINA TO CALL OFF GAME IN ISRAEL

Dec 20, 2022
On 5th June, 2018, Israeli fans were “stunned” when the Argentine national football team cancelled their game with Israel due four days later. The game had been highly anticipated in Israel with tickets selling out in 20 minutes. Netanyahu pleaded in vain with Buenos Aires, then blamed unspecified “terrorism” from “anti-Semitic elements” for forcing the cancellation. Palestinians were elated. The team’s decision followed an international campaign across South America to urge Argentina not to go… Read more

According to the front page headline in the Scotsman of Saturday 8 August 2015, Hilary Clinton weighed into Edinburgh film festival row, the court-mandated publication of her emails from 2009 reveal that the US Secretary of State worked from Washington to mobilise support against an SPSC boycott initiative, while Hollywood film makers were being asked to boycott the Edinburgh International Film Festival (EIFF) and intimidate - 'lean on' - other film makers to do likewise.
