Palestine comment
3rd January 2009
Councillor Bernard Little, who was at the Sheffield demonstration
today in support of the Palestinian
Solidarity Campaign, said
"We cannot experience the unbelievable suffering of the Palestinian
people in Gaza and their relatives and refugees abroad. We can
only offer our support to the Palestinian Solidarity Campaign
in Sheffield. Israel's continuing assault on Gaza is not only
disproportionate it is also counter-productive, sowing the seeds
for further conflict. Reconciliation between the people of Israel
and Palestine is the only guarantee for a lasting peace. I urge
everyone to come to the continuing protests in Sheffield and write
to their local MP to demand urgent government action to broker
a ceasefire."
