Human Rights Watch – Mohammed Othman Held without Charge

(Jerusalem) – The Israeli military appeals court should end the administrative detention of Mohammed Othman, a West Bank rights activist, and order his release, Human Rights Watch said today.

Israeli authorities have detained Othman without charge for more than two months on what appear to be politically motivated grounds. On the basis of secret evidence that Othman and his lawyers were not allowed to see, a military court confirmed a military order that consigned Othman to three months administrative detention without charging him with any crime. Othman has no criminal record and, to the knowledge of Human Rights Watch, has never advocated or participated in violence. His detention period, which may be renewed, ends on December 22.

Ever since the Israeli invasion of the Gaza strip last December the global debate surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has intensified with both sides upping the ante, and the stakes of the framing battle increasing almost daily.

One of the most recent — but almost totally unreported — developments in Canada is something called the Canadian Parliamentary Coalition to Combat Antisemitism (CPCCA). It is not an official parliamentary body but is a multi-party, voluntary association of 13 MPs. It is currently holding an inquiry into anti-semitism because, it says, “The extent and severity of anti-semitism is widely regarded as at its worst level since the end of the Second World War.”

Annonce d’une conférence québécoise et pancanadienne sur le BDS

UQÀM, Montréal, Québec – 22 au 24 octobre 2010

Depuis l’appel historique des Palestinien(ne)s et de nombreux individus et membre d’organisations de solidarité de la société civile israélienne pour un mouvement international de Boycott, désinvestissement et sanctions (BDS) contre l’apartheid israélien, nous avons témoigné des succès importants au sein de ce mouvement au Québec et ailleurs au Canada. C’est pourquoi, il est maintenant temps de mettre la lumière sur les succès de ce mouvement BDS accomplis jusqu’à aujourd’hui, de consolider et d’intensifier ces efforts en solidarité avec le peuple palestinien qui continue à souffrir sous le système brutal de l’apartheid israélien.
