Some Israelis protest the suffering of Palestinians caused by Israel
Max Blumenthal, journalist and maker of the above video reports:
“You see how few we are,” said a demonstrator holding a sign reading “Obama, Yes-U-Can.” “This is about all the Israelis who really oppose the Occupation — it’s very small. Most of the Israelis don’t care about the Occupation and what goes on in the Occupied Territories and about the suffering of the Palestinians. I think it must come from the — the pressure must come from the outside… From here, there’s not enough.”
This video report is the sequel to my hotly debated, heavily trafficked “Feeling the Hate.” Many bloggers who focus on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict urged me to make a video that showed the “other side” of Israel, the culturally progressive element that believes in peace and international cooperation. Well, here they are. There are very, very few of them, they are marginalized, even persecuted, and in desperate need of American support.

AGIMO eGovernment consultation trial
From Sally Rose at Open Forum:
Hi I thought you’d be interested to know that the next instalment in the AGIMO eGovernment consultation trial has arrived. It is an online discussion forum for the National Human Rights Consultation Commitee (an independent body supported by a Secretariat from the federal Attorney General’s Department) and it’s being hosted by us (Open Forum an independent, non-profit organisation). People can leave comments on the forum which are then considered by the committee as part of their community consultation process. All comments are published automatically in real time, NOT filtered through a government department screening process first. Please check it out and contact me if you’d like more info. Really want to spread the word so more people participate. www.openforum.com.au/NHROC
Best Regards
Sally Rose
