    This morning 146 MPs have signed an early day motion criticising the BBC and Sky News for refusing to show an emergency appeal for Gaza


    Maybe more have signed by the time you read this. Check at:

    http://edmi.parliament.uk/EDMi/EDMDe...19&SESSION=899

    The motion in full:

    "EDM 585 DEC GAZA CRISIS APPEAL
    26.01.2009
    Burden, Richard

    "That this House is astonished by the refusal of the BBC and Sky to broadcast the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Gaza Crisis Appeal; considers that the explanations given for this decision by BBC spokespersons are both unconvincing and incoherent; and draws attention to the fact that people wishing to obtain information about the Gaza appeal can contact the DEC by visiting www.dec.org.uk."

      Of course EDMs achieve nothing. Often MPs will sign EDMs then vote against any actual commons motion (must follow the whip).

        They are not going through Lebanon, they plan to go via Egypt. And why are they calling this 'viva Palestine'. Thats Spanish. I can understand viva Espana or vive le France, it sounds a bit pretentious to me.

          Perhaps they build Vauxhall Vivas there under license.

            Actually LE2000, I don't understand this either. When who gets to the Lebanon-Israeli border?

                  Ah right. Then sneak the stuff through the tunnels. Excellent!

                    That is the thing I hate about the internet, any spud with half an idea can get a web site up and running in no time and if it can reach all the spuds with view similar to your own, even if that is 0.0001% of the population of the world, then you can have a pretty sizable support in no time and pass your argument of as somehow valid.

                      They have to sneak the stuff (food & medicine) as the zionists have forced them to. Of course weapons would probably go through these tunnels as well, but why is israel allowed to openly buy hi-tech weapons from the US and UK and a politically elected government in Palestine are called terrorists when having small weapons? Are they not allowed to resist in their own land?

                      israel did not exist until the 1940's, the UK split the Jews and Muslims up who were until this point, living an peace and harmony with each other. It was the zionists who had the aggressive stance, and wanted to control all.

                      It is obvious that israel are trying to wipe out these poor poeple, you only have to look at UN comments and interviews. Why would you round up over 110 women and children in a so-called "safe-house", then within 24 hours shell it?!

                      If you only watch the bbc and sky news reports, which most of you do on here, its no wonder you are ignorant to the truth. Don't you know that the bbc and sky are heavily controlled by isareli government/zionists? You only need to search for about 5 minutes on google to find this info...
