This is not a call for burning flags or demonizing the guilty ones and blindfoldly fighting on the side of the righteous ones. Of course the "conflict in the Middle East" has a long history and there are many perspectives on its causes and responsibilities. Although a genuine debate on these issues is an urgent and necessary need the first and foremost step should now be the immediate halt of innocent loss of life. Our main aim is to respond to the disproportionate use of force by Israel and to the irresponsible exposure of innocent civilians to violence and death.
This is a general appeal, calling on everyone to contribute short statements in the form of texts (500 words), short video clips or other materializations of protest. The texts will be presented to major newspapers, the clips will be shown during the Biennale des Cinémas Arabes and other media.
Pleas send your texts to Fouad Asfour (texte@gmx.net), and your video clips to Joana Hadjithomas (1001prod@cyberia.net.lb).
