This is Beirut

This is Beirut is designed to give voice to the millions of Lebanese who are suffering while the world sits silently. We are not interested in propagating hatred. We want the world to witness through the eyes of Lebanese citizens the destruction and the suffering that has been brought on in the name of defense. If you have a story, poem or letter to share, please email amyabdou@gmail.com We will work together to end this violence.

Rally - Voices for Lebanon and Palestine

End Israel's attacks on Lebanon and Palestine

Demand a ceasefire now!

Sunday 30 July 1-3pm Trafalgar Square

The latest news is that comedian Alexei Sayle and actor Simon Callow have confirmed they will be speaking at Sunday's rally!

They will be joining actors including Maxine Peake, John Austin MP, veteran peace campaigner Bruce Kent, Tony Benn, 13-year old Zeinab Daher who has just returned from Lebanon, and many others (full details of speakers confirmed to date are on the attached leaflet)

The rally is organised by the PSC and supported by CND, Stop the War, British Muslim Initiative and many others.

Despite increasing international pressure for a ceasefire, our government has refused to put pressure on Israel to end its assault on the Lebanese and Palestinian people. We need to send a strong and clear signal to the government that we are calling for an end to Israel's attacks and for an immediate ceasefire. Please join us on Sunday and get everyone you know to come too.
