Protests erupted on the streets of Cairo, Egypt only hours after the first air strikes hit in the current Israeli attack on the Gaza Strip. Special focus has been directed at the Egyptian government’s role in the ongoing crisis in Gaza, as protesters across the Middle East denounced Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak collusion with Israeli authorities in maintaining a complete closure on Gaza throughout the past year. Gaza remains under siege and completely cut-off from the outside world as Egyptian police and military maintain a complete closure on the Gaza Strip in coordination with Israeli along the southern Rafah border crossing.

Pour Gaza
Commentaire par Mohamed — 4 janvier 2009 @ 8:47La solution est simple et efficace mais elle nécessite une implication massive des populations arabes
UNE MARCHE ARABE VERS GAZA
Il faut que les populations arabe cassent les frontières entre eux et marchent vers Gaza, même sans armes, juste une marche.
et on verra le résultat.
