Con-Voy







The last week has been the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF).



Every year, the richest corporate magnates on the planet assemble- captains of industry, powerful lobbiers, CEOs, tycoons... and of course, one or two lame-duck lackeys from a government or two. The WEF is something like the parties the French court held at Versailles before the peasants got fed up and stormed the Bastille. Our Global Nobles spend a week neck-deep in conspiracy and hedonism, brainstorming ways to further fill their moneybags... oh, I'm sorry... I meant: promote Free Trade.

Tel Aviv - On the other side of the wall

Three days ago, a wall fell here - Just as the Berlin Wall fell, Just as the apartheid wall will fall, And just as all walls and fences in this country Will come down.

But the inhuman blockade That has been imposed on A million and a half human beings in Gaza By our government By our army, In our name - This siege is continuing in its full cruelty. We, Israelis from various political camps, Have come to bring basic supplies And to say to the Israeli public And to the whole world: We will not participate in crime! We are ashamed of the blockade!”

The protesters start there move from different cities in Israel heading to the Erez border crossing between Israel and the Gaza Strip, carrying five tonnes of food and medicine the convoy of about 100 cars and 20 buses that wound its way from Israel's main cities was prevented by the Israeli military to cross the Eriz border crossing.

Massive demonstration held on both sides of Erez Checkpoint against siege on Gaza

A massive demonstration was held at Erez Checkpoint in the northern Gaza Strip’s Beit Hanoun. People assembled on both sides to protest the siege and starvation in the Strip, and the denial of Palestinian citizens the necessary materials for their humanitarian needs.

Convoys arrived from within various parts of the Israeli boundaries under the slogan, “We cannot detain one million and a half people in a big prison.”

Free access to movement, to medical supplies and treatment, access to food and to the outside world, is what prompted thousands of Palestinians to break through the southern border crossing with Egypt to get out. The same had been expected for days at Erez in the north, which Ismail Haniya threatened two days ago.
