This is FUTILE EFFORT AND USELESS MUSLIM MOVE. Why go to Gaza when Africans and even YOUR FELLOW MUSLIMS ARE DYING OF HUNGER IN SOMALIA AND KENYA ETC? Your efforts are senseless. A look at Africa will reveal that 90% of troubles in Africa are caused by Muslim fundamentalist and their Gaza background. From Libya to Nigeria it is same case.

Of course, free Gaza. And yet, I'm aware of South Africa ANC, "kill the Boer, kill the Boer farmer, kill their white babies" SO, please Palestinians, when your day comes, don't follow in these footsteps. Make the world proud for having stood with you.

".. the many people who have questioned why I came, I say: Israel worked very closely with the apartheid regime. I say: I've made peace with many men who slaughtered our people like animals. Israel cooperated with the apartheid regime,..." he said. - Nelson Mandela's First Visit to Israel/Gaza October 22, 1999 Jweekly

The temptation in our situation is to speak in muffled tones about an issue such as the right of the people of Palestine to a state of their own. We can easily be enticed to read reconciliation and fairness as meaning parity between justice and injustice. Having achieved our own freedom, we can fall into the trap of washing our hands of difficulties that others faces.

Yet we would be less than human if we did so. -NELSON MANDELA 1997

When in 1977, the United Nations passed the resolution inaugurating the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people, it was asserting the recognition that injustice and gross human rights violations were being perpetrated in Palestine. In the same period, the UN took a strong stand against apartheid; and over the years, an international consensus was built, which helped to bring an end to this iniquitous system. -NELSON MANDELA 1997
