Over 20 progressive news outlets, including TeleSUR TV and Pan African TV, have signed a statement condemning the assassination of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.
In a report submitted to the UN Human Rights Council, UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Michael Lynk says that the situation in the occupied Palestinian Territory has moved beyond occupation and annexation, and now amounts to the crime of apartheid.
Born on April 10, 1979, in Olympia, Washington, Rachel Corrie, a liberal arts major, a peace activist, and a human rights volunteer/observer was brutally murdered by Israel Defense forces in Gaza on March 16, 2003.
Amnesty International recently released a 280-page report with a sharp headline, “Israel’s Apartheid Against Palestinians.” Amnesty “concluded that Israel has perpetrated the international wrong of apartheid, as a human rights violation and a violation of public international law.”
