* Radio Tadamon! Popular Protest in Gaza
http://tadamon.resist.ca/index.php/post/1232

Listen to an interview with Sam Hadeeb from the Popular Committee Against the 
Siege in Gaza. In the face of ongoing Israeli military actions directed at the 
Gaza Strip, which have taken the lives of over one-hundred Palestinians within 
the past week ? including children ? a popular committee has formed in Gaza, 
which has been coordinating a series of popular direct actions and appealing 
for protests lead by social justice movements throughout the world.

On Monday, February 25th, the Popular Committee Against the Siege in Gaza, 
organize a major protest, bringing tens-of-thousands of Palestinians on the 
streets of Gaza, to protest the ongoing Israeli closure enforced on Gaza, which 
has left the 1.5 million Palestinians of Gaza without basic supplies, without 
regular electricity and often without clean water. The protest aimed to 
highlight the realities of the ongoing Israeli siege on Gaza, which Amnesty 
International recently deemed a violation of international law.

This interview with organized Sam Hadeeb provides a direct perspective on 
popular, or grassroots organizing taking place in Gaza in opposition to the 
ongoing Israeli siege on Gaza, which has been maintained in the context of 
ongoing Israeli military operations throughout the Gaza Strip, that have drawn 
international condemnation, including from the Secretary General of the U.N.
