Today, international headlines are occupied with the news of the environmental disaster unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico– with inevitable comparisons made to the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989.

What’s less well known is that this amount of oil is spilt every year in Africa’s Niger Delta* – one of the ten most important wetland and coastal marine ecosystems in the world.

What’s worse is that the spill in Nigeria is happening next to people’s homes and water and food sources, without anywhere near adequate clean up.

Imagine an environmental activist being intimidated, jailed or even killed for asking British Petroleum or the US Administration to do more to prevent this kind of environmental disaster.

Reunion] Résumé du cmaq.net (Indymedia-Quebec) : Non seulement le Conseil de sécurité des Nations unies demande une enquête impartiale, elle déclare que le blocus imposé par Israël pendant trois années maintenant a sévèrement limité la distribution d’aide aux 1.5 million de résidant-es de Gaza.

 Members of Swedish Parliament demand security for Ship to Gaza
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2010 May 20 - 10:29pm 

Press release 20 May 2010

On Wednesday, Helén Pettersson, Social Democratic member of the Swedish Parliament, submitted a written inquiry to Foreign Minister Carl Bildt, asking what measures the government intends to take in order to protect Ship to Gaza’s peaceful, lawful, humanitarian initiative. The reason for the inquiry is that Ship to Gaza and the Freedom Flotilla—the coalition in which the Swedish initiative will be included— has been threatened with military resistance from Israeli authorities and private individuals. The following is Petterson’s inquiry in its entirety:

“One and a half million Palestinians are living in isolation on the Gaza Strip, in pure misery. There is a shortage of food, medicine and other necessities, such as building materials to repair homes, schools and other buildings which were destroyed by the bombings during the war around Christmas in 2008. In order to address the situation, Ship to Gaza is planning to take the sea route to Gaza, bringing medicine, desalination plants, cement, etc. in order to help the people in need. Ship to Gaza is a politically and religiously independent, non-profit organization that is working to promote increased respect for human rights and general international law. Israel’s government has now threatened to stop Ship to Gaza and to use force if necessary. Does the Foreign Minister intend to protect this humanitarian initiative?”

 Palestinian teens killed as tensions rise (theREALnews Network)
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2010 Mar 24 - 2:24pm 

Four teenagers in the West Bank villages of Iraq Burin and Awarta were killed this weekend by Israeli soldiers. Initially the army denied the use of live ammunition but an X-ray of an M-16 bullet lodged in the skull of one of the killed disproved the claim. In the second incident, where Israeli soldiers detained two teenage farmers, the army claimed the Palestinians were shot (one with five bullets and the other with at least two) because they attempted to attack a soldier with pitchforks, knives, or axes. The Real News’ Lia Tarachansky spoke to Edo Medicks and Jesse Rosenfeld of The Daily Nuisance. Rosenfeld and Medicks attended the funerals at Iraq Burin when the shooting in Awarta took place and investigated what actually took place.

(Montréal, 21 janvier 2010)

Quebec - nation francophone de la fédération canadienne La semaine dernière, le gouvernement du Canada a discrètement annoncé qu’il allait retirer sa contribution financière à l’Office de secours et de travaux des Nations Unies (UNRWA) au profit d’un budget limité pour le renforcement du système judiciaire de l’Autorité palestinienne et d’autres programmes d’aide alimentaire. La nouvelle survient au moment où l’UNRWA lance une campagne de financement extraordinaire pour rassembler les millions de dollars nécessaires aux programmes d’aide instaurés dans les territoires palestiniens occupés.

L’UNRWA fournit de l’assistance à 4,67 millions de réfugiés palestiniens à travers le Moyen-Orient et gère des programmes dans les secteurs de l’éducation, de la santé et d’autres services sociaux dans 59 camps de réfugiés palestiniens.

Canada Last week, the government of Canada quietly announced it would discontinue its long-standing financial contributions to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and redirect the monies to strengthen the judicial system of the Palestinian Authority and other food assistance programs. The news came out as UNRWA launched a special fundraising campaign to collect millions of dollars needed to support programs in the occupied Palestinian territories.

UNRWA provides assistance to 4.67 million Palestinian refugees scattered throughout the Middle East and administers programs in the areas of education, health and other social services in 59 Palestinian refugee camps.
