ok

here's a new proposal incorporating the freegaza arrival in gaza

anyone got a suggestion for a pic?

<p>A delegation of eight people from Brighton arrived in the Tubas region
of occupied Palestine last week. The delegation is part of the project by
the Brighton-Tubas Friendship and Solidarity Group. The group's aims are
to highlight Israeli war crimes against Palestinians in the region, raise
awareness about life under occupation and create practical solidarity
links between grassroots organisations in Brighton and Tubas region.
Members of the delegation are currently visiting the threatened village of
Al Masra to assist them with their olive harvest.</p>
<p>
On Tuesday 28th the group was attacked by a group of Israeli settlers who
proceeded to steal olives from the farmers the group was accompanying. One
of the settlers was the same man who had murdered a teenage boy in the
village earlier this year.</p>

<p>By travelling to Occupied Palestine, activists have been able to foster
links with beleagured communities, to show practical solidarity and to
report on the increasingly appalling conditions which go virtually
unnoticed in the corporate media. The visits have also played a vital part
in the growth of UK based campaigns to show solidarity with Palestinians.
Activites amongst such groups in the last month are the <a
