Guest guest Posted April 11, 2003 Report Share Posted April 11, 2003 oo just missed this one too http://www.guardian.co.uk/israel/Story/0,2763,935018,00.html Israel troops just shot a British peace activist / human shield with the International Solidarity Movement...... as he was trying to move children away from gunfire... that's the second peace activist they've shot or are there more? "Mr Tom Handoll was reportedly trying to help two children caught in gunfire to cross the street when Israeli soldiers shot him in the head." "It comes a month after Rachel Corrie, an American activist working with the International Solidarity Movement, was killed when she fell in front of an Israeli bulldozer in Rafah. ISM claimed the bulldozer ran over her, and then backed up. The army denied the claim, saying that the bulldozer operator did not see her. " "Last week, another American activist with the group, Brian Avery, was shot in the West Bank city of Jenin." ok three... and Israel was protected over 40 times from UN Resolutions by the US Veto... in the past 30 years. The first to note was in 1972 - this was a motion "Palestine: Syrian-Lebanese Complaint. 3 power draft resolution 2/10784 " 9/10/1972 Voted For: 13 to 1 and one abstension.... The veto was by none other than George Bush Snr. Source: http://www.us-israel.org/jsource/UN/usvetoes.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However AFAIK she was 'accidentally' run over (then reversed over) by a bulldozer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
