There may be many things about the Turkish Prime Minister that people find objectionable but his challenge to Peres at Davos yesterday is surely not one of them. When he was prevented from being given equal time to Peres, he left the conference completely and has returned to an appreciative welcome in Turkey where feelings are running very high about the slaughter in Gaza. read full story / add a comment

The statement of the BATU strikers about this can be found at http://batustrikers.wordpress.com/ and should be of particular interest to indymedia readers as it is a brilliant example of the struggle going on against the right wing union bureaucracy and for democratic, fighting unions. read full story / add a comment

A fundraising hour for Gaza is being held by an Irish charity at lunchtime this Friday.

Irish Medical Aid for Palestinians (Irish MAP) is an Irish registered not for profit organisation, established in 2007 with the overall aim of providing the necessary help and support to the Palestinian people in order to protect, maintain and improve their health.

Irish Map (Medical Aid for Palestinians) has made an appeal for members of the public to raise money during “Gaza hour”.
Do your bit for the suffering people of Gaza.

The charity aims to raise €430,000 for medical supplies, which it says is some 10 cent for every person in the country.

Due to an embargo on Gaza’s borders, the organisation is raising money for the Palestinian Red Crescent Society rather than collecting medical equipment. Schools, workplaces and community groups are being called on to collect money using activities of their choice. read full story / add a comment
