 Israeli protest movements warn new anti-Boycott law violates fundamental rights
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2011 Jul 18 - 1:09pm 

On the night of July 11th the Israeli parliament passed the controversial anti-boycott law. The law was written in response to the mounting global movement of Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (or BDS) against Israel and profits from its settlements and industry in the occupied West Bank. The Boycott movement began as a mass Palestinian civil society call, and has been supported from the beginning by some Israelis. The new law bans them from publicly calling for a boycott, classifying it a civil wrong. To understand the politics behind the vote, The Real News’ Lia Tarachansky spoke with Noam Sheizaf, a journalist with the +972 Magazine, and caught up with MK Dov Khenin during a protest in Jerusalem. This week anonymous activists announced a week of direct actions, known as Rage Week. Also this week the Israeli parliament will decide whether to investigate human rights groups who work against the occupation.

Siriel-Media note : very interesting as we hear Israelis who support the democratic rights of both Israelis and Palestinians. / très intéressant car on y entend des Israélien.nes qui défendent les droits démocratiques autant des Israélien.nes que des Palestinien.nes.

 Iraq : Stop Blocking Demonstrations ( Human Rights Watch )
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2010 Sep 18 - 4:49pm 

Policemen face residents protesting electricity shortages and inadequate services in Nassiriya, southeast of Baghdad, on August 22, 2010.Secret Order, Government Regulations a Setback for Freedom of Assembly
— September 17, 2010, from Human Rights Watch

Iraqi authorities should stop blocking peaceful demonstrations and arresting and intimidating organizers, Human Rights Watch said today. Iraqi security forces should also respect the right of free assembly and use only the minimum necessary force when violence occurs at a protest.

After thousands of Iraqis took to the streets in the summer of 2010 to protest a chronic lack of government services, Iraqi authorities cracked down on demonstrations. The Interior Ministry issued onerous regulations about public protests, and the prime minister’s office apparently issued a secret order instructing the interior minister to refuse permits for demonstrations about power shortages.

 [Canada & Afghanistan] Harper’s hypocrisy: Two years of silence on Malalai Joya from Conservatives
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2009 May 21 - 1:00am 

On May 21, 2007, Malalai Joya – the young MP dubbed “the bravest woman in Afghanistan” by the BBC – was unjustly suspended from the Afghan National Assembly. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper was in Afghanistan on that day and, two years later, has still yet to make any statement about Joya’s mistreatment.

“Canada’s participation in this war in Afghanistan has been justified with rhetoric about women’s rights, yet Harper and the Conservatives remained silent when Malalai Joya was ousted from her elected position and again did nothing meaningful when Karzai signed the anti-women provision which sanctioned rape in marriage,” said Parvin Ashrafi, a women’s rights activist with the Iranian Centre for Peace, Freedom and Social Justice and a member of Friends of Malalai Joya—Canada.

 Afghanistan: Malalai Joya (députée/MP) condamne les bombardements de l’OTAN / condemns NATO bombings
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2009 May 14 - 11:31pm 

« Ce massacre permet au monde d’entrevoir les horreurs auxquelles notre peuple fait face »
14 mai 2009

En tant que représentante élue pour Farah, Afghanistan, j’ajoute ma voix à celles qui condamnent le bombardement de l’OTAN qui a fauché la vie de plus de 150 civils dans ma province, plus tôt ce mois-ci. Ce dernier massacre permet au monde d’entrevoir les horreurs auxquelles notre peuple fait face.

Cependant, tel que je l’ai expliqué lors d’une conférence de presse le 11 mai à Kaboul, les autorités militaires étasuniennes ne veulent pas que vous voyez cette réalité. Comme d’habitude, elles ont tenté de minimiser le nombre de victimes civiles, mais l’information que j’ai obtenue confirme que 164 civils ont été tués dans ces bombardements. À la conférence de presse, un homme du village de Geranai, accablé de douleur, est venu expliquer qu’il avait perdu 20 membres de sa famille dans le massacre.

“This massacre offers the world a glimpse at horrors faced by our people”

As an elected representative for Farah, Afghanistan, I add my voice to those condemning the NATO bombing that claimed over 150 civilian lives in my province earlier this month. This latest massacre offers the world a glimpse of the horrors faced by our people.

However, as I explained at a May 11 press conference in Kabul, the U.S. military authorities do not want you to see this reality. As usual, they have tried to downplay the number of civilian casualties, but I have information that as many as 164 civilians were killed in the bombings. One grief stricken man from the village of Geranai explained at the press conference that he had lost 20 members of his family in the massacre.
