Brian Becker: The Occupation of Gaza is a War Crime

On Friday, Jan. 2, 2009, Human Rights activists staged a demonstration and march, in Washington, D.C., in solidarity with the beleaguered Palestinian people of Israeli-Occupied Gaza. The rally began at the Israeli Embassy. Brian Becker, National Coordinator of the ANSWER Coalition, was one of the featured speakers at the spirited event. The activists then marched on to the Egyptian Embassy a few blocks away to stage a demonstration at that site. That part of the protest wasn't covered by this presenter.

Emergency demonstrations on this issue are continuing to take place across the United States. For details, check out: http://answer.pephost.org/site/News2?abbr=ANS_&page=NewsArticle&id=88....

Only the occupation of Gaza? The theft of Palestine and everything Israel does is a war crime both in and against ALL of Palestine.

This man is a Maoist sympathizer, he wants freedom for HAMAS and Hezbollah who mainly want to kill Jews and anyone else who supports Israel, but not for the people of Tibet! Why is that? Isn't China occupying Tibet? Oh I forgot it's a socialist paradise, and one should never question socialism! I really question if his agenda is really one of equality, and not leftist hypocracy.

This man is part of the RED PARTY from Norway... He is not reputable at all. This is besides the fact that Palestine was firing missiles into Israel with no provocation.

Thank you for speaking the truth Mr Becker. You are a truly brave hero !!!!

educate me? Looks like I just gave you a lesson on History. Here it is if you already forgot it. There never was a place called Palestine. Israel was made from apart of Jordan, Syria, and Egpyt. They had 2 wars over the land and Israel won both times.

Now get your head out of your ass. Atrocities are done on both sides. It has been going on for years. The only way peace can come to the reason if the people of Gaza take up against the muslim extremist but they are not. they are turning a cheek.
