It is time for Israel to choose peace. It is time for world leaders and the international Community to join together and call on Israel to lift the siege of Gaza completely, End the occupation of Palestine and allow the Palestinian people their right to self-determination.

To help bring closer that day we can all do something. Not everyone can go with The Freegaza boat people, but supporting the BDS campaign, calling for an end to EU special trading status with Israel insisting that USA end its economic/military assistance to Israel until it upholds it International commitments.

Palestine is a key to peace in the Middle East so by us all refusing to be "silent' in the face of Israel's continued apartheid policies we can all bring closer an end to all violence in the Middle East.
