Israel and
Gaza are on the brink of war. A ground assault has left
many dead, and the rain of rockets only spreads.
Israel is now considering a full-scale invasion of Gaza,
which has never worked before. The only answer is a
ceasefire deal, already suggested by Hamas and supported
by 64% of Israelis and some senior cabinet
ministers. With international help, this could make
civilians on both sides safer.
Peace itself is at stake in the coming days, as are
thousands of lives. But both sides know they are in a
battle for global legitimacy, and international opinion
matters. We need to raise a massive worldwide outcry
for a Gaza ceasefire now - sign the emergency petition
below, we will deliver it to senior Israeli and
Palestinian leaders and in a billboard campaign:
We
call for Israeli Prime
Minister Ehud Olmert and
Hamas leader Khaled
Meshaal to stop the
bloodshed and agree to
an immediate ceasefire,
and for the
international community
to engage constructively
and help broker a fair
deal for the safety of
civilians on both sides.
