LEBANON: WE NEED YOUR HELP URGENTLY
NATIONAL EMERGENCY DEMONSTRATION
SATURDAY 5 AUGUST: ASSEMBLE 12 NOON
SPEAKERS CORNER, HYDE PARK, LONDON
MARCH PASS US EMBASSY AND DOWNING STREET
TO PARLIAMENT SQUARE FOR RALLY
After the Qana massacre, no one can deny what we are witnessing: the systematic destruction of two countries. Everyone who is horrified at what is happening can help to bring this carnage to an end. We need the biggest possible turnout on Saturday's emergency demonstration. What you do in the next few days can make a difference. Tony Blair is under the most intense pressure on all sides to detach himself from his master George Bush's catastrophic warmongering and call for an immediate unconditional ceasefire. His party wants him to stop. His cabinet wants him to stop. The vast majority of people in the country want him to stop. Our demonstration can intensify that pressure to breaking point.
Stop the War has not experienced anything like it since the run up to the Iraq war in 2003. Over 1000 people every day are contacting the Stop the War office. They want to be on our mailing list. They want to know what they can do to build Saturday's emergency demonstration in London. They want to know where to get leaflets, where coaches are arranged to transport people to London. They want to donate to help fund the demonstration.
WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW: WHAT YOU CAN DO:
1 DONATE: We have had the most fantastic response to our emergency financial appeal, from pensioners sending us a few pounds to peers in the House of Lords. But we still need much more to help fund the demonstration and publicise it as widely as we can. Please donate whatever you can big or small.
GO HERE TO DONATE: http://tinyurl.com/qvzt5
2 LEAFLET EVERYWHERE: Download the demonstration leaflet from our website and distribute it as widely as you can. Encourage everyone you know to join the demonstration and spread the word among their friends, work colleagues, neighbours etc. Leaflet mosques (we're getting a phenomenal response), churches, community centres, libraries, tube and bus stations.
DOWNLOAD LEAFLET: http://www.stopwar.org.uk
If you are in London, get leaflets from the Stop the War office: 020 7278 6694.
3 OUTSIDE LONDON: If you are outside of London, find out about coaches in your area on our website. Get together with friends and book a coach yourselves and get everyone you know to buy a ticket. People who know about the demonstration want to be on it and want to know how to get there. There are dozens of coaches already booked from every corner of Britain. More are being booked every day.
See our website: http://tinyurl.com/fzq2g
4 IN LONDON: If you live in London and have time to help this week, contact the Stop the War office. We have much to do to ensure that the people of London know about the demonstration and to prepare for Saturday. We need help for mailouts, to make placards, to leaflet mosques, churches, community groups etc. We need help to steward the demonstration on Saturday. TELEPHONE 020 7278 6694
5 THURSDAY IS TUBE LEAFLETTING DAY.
We are making Thursday 3 August tube leafletting day. We need every tube station in London leafletted in the morning and evening. Leaflets are available from the Stop the War office. Contact us now if you can help. 020 7278 6694.
Email office@stopwar.org.uk
6 KEEP SIGNING THE TONY BLAIR LETTER
Get everyone you know to sign the letter to Tony Blair, which we will hand in to Downing Street during the demonstration on Saturday. We are being sent thousands of signatures by post and email. Many thousands are signing online.

Noam Chomsky: U.S.-Backed Israeli Policies Pursuing "End of Palestine"; Hezbollah Capture of Israeli Soldiers "Very Irresponsible Act" That Could Lead To "Extreme Disaster"
Israel has intensified its attacks on Lebanon as warplanes launched fresh strikes on Beirut airport, communication networks, Lebanese roads and a power plant. Meanwhile, the US has vetoed a UN Security Council Resolution condemning Israel's attack on the Gaza Strip. MIT professor Noam Chomsky says the US and Israel are punishing Palestinians for electing Hamas, and says Hezbollah's capture of Israeli soldiers subjects Lebanese "to terror and possible extreme disaster" from Israeli strikes. We also get comments from Middle East analyst Mouin Rabbani in Jerusalem.
The One Percent Doctrine: Journalist Ron Suskind on the Deliberate U.S. Bombing of Al Jazeera, Losing Bin Laden and More
Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Ron Suskind joins us to discuss his new book, "The One Percent Doctrine: Deep Inside America's Pursuit of Its Enemies Since 9/11." In it, Suskind writes that that the U.S deliberately bombed the Kabul, Afghanistan offices of Al Jazeera in 2001.

The Israeli attack on Lebanon has entered its second week and the death toll now stands at about 300, nearly all Lebanese civilians. We go to Beirut to speak with Robert Fisk, chief Middle East correspondent for the London Independent. Fisk discusses the assault on Lebanon, Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora, the role of Syria and Iran in the crisis, embedded reporters in the Israeli military and more.

*******************************
1) URGENT STOP THE WAR FINANCIAL APPEAL
Stop the War needs urgently to raise £10,000 to cover the cost of our emergency demonstration on Saturday 5 August (details below). It will be the fourth major event on the crisis in Lebanon and Gaza organised by Stop the War within three weeks. The August 5 demonstration is more important than ever, following the latest Israeli atrocity at Qana, in which up to 60 refugees from previous Israeli bombing, at least 21 of them children, were slaughtered when Israel destroyed the house in which they were desperately sheltering.
The Stop the War office is being inundated with messages and calls from all over the country asking for details of the demonstration and for transport arrangements.
Demonstrations cost money. The staging, the leaflets, the posters, the placards, the running of the national STW office, all of it is paid for by donations from Stop the War supporters. We don't have any rich benefactors, unlike Tony Blair, who, on the very day of the Qana massacre, is swanning around at a Rupert Murdoch gathering, probably expressing pride at standing "shoulder to shoulder" with George Bush and Israel.
People everywhere will want to join the demonstration but they have to know about it first. We desperately need the funds to make sure they do and to organise the demonstration. We must make our voices heard. To remain silent would be criminal. Please send us donations large and small. We can make a difference. Blair's own cabinet is split, the Labour Party is in turmoil, the vast majority of British people are outraged.
PLEASE DONATE NOW. THERE ARE THREE WAYS TO DONATE:
* DONATE ONLINE by debit/credit card:
http://www.stopwar.org.uk/new/involved/joinonline.htm
* TELEPHONE the Stop the War office (office hours) and make a debit/credit card payment: 020 7278 6694

4) ISRAEL'S BARBARISM WITHOUT LIMIT
Israel's atrocities rise daily but they are on the brink of their most horrific onslaught yet. Over 100 nuclear "bunker busting" bombs have been rushed to Israel, via Prestwick airport in Scotland, with the intention, it must be assumed, to flatten southern Lebanon completely. These are nucleur, uranium tipped weapons. A video showing how destructive these nucleur weapons are can be viewed here: http://tinyurl.com/p43yr

How can ‘terrorism’ be condemned while war crimes go without rebuke? How can 'terrorism' be condemned while war crimes go without rebuke?
Washington's partners in this hypocritical war on terror are given free rein to wreak their own brutal, illegal violence
David Clark
Monday July 31, 2006
The Guardian
As if we didn't know it already, the conflict in Lebanon shows that truth and war don't mix. All parties to the tragedy of the Middle East resort to disinformation and historical falsification to bolster their case, but rarely has an attempt to rewrite the past occurred so soon after the fact. Israeli ministers and their supporters have justified the bombardment of Lebanon as "a matter of survival". Total war has been declared on Israel, so Israel is entitled to use the methods of total war in self-defence. This would be reasonable if it were true, but it isn't. It's completely false.
The conflict was triggered by a Hizbullah operation in which two Israeli soldiers were captured and three killed. Let's be frank, this wasn't exactly the Tet offensive. It certainly didn't justify Israel's ferocious onslaught against the very fabric of Lebanese society. Yes, the rocket attacks on Haifa are an appalling crime, but they followed rather than preceded Israel's decision to escalate the fighting. They cannot provide retrospective justification for Israeli strategy.
The crisis has also been accompanied by the selective and often inappropriate use of the term "terrorism". Following the Israeli government, George Bush and Tony Blair were at it again on Friday, blaming "terrorists" for sparking the conflict. The purpose behind this is obvious enough. In the context of America's war on terror, anyone claiming to be engaged in the fight against this most contested of notions gets carte blanche to do as they please. But the result has been to politicise the term in ways that render it effectively useless as a category of moral judgment or policy analysis.
It is certainly true that Hizbullah has been linked to a string of classic terrorist attacks going back more than 20 years, including suicide bombings against civilian targets, hostage-taking and the hijacking of a TWA flight. A particularly vile example was the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community centre in Buenos Aires in which 85 people were murdered. Hizbullah strongly denies involvement, but the truth is probably murkier than either side pretends. Responsibility for these attacks has often been attributed to Hizbullah's External Security Organisation (ESO), a unit believed to be under the operational control of Iranian intelligence rather than the Hizbullah's Lebanese leadership. Britain is one country that draws this distinction, proscribing ESO, but not Hizbullah itself, under the Terrorism Act.
Interestingly, some of the earliest suicide bombings commonly attributed to Hizbullah, such as the 1983 attacks on the US embassy and marine barracks in Beirut, were believed by American intelligence sources at the time to have been orchestrated by the Iraqi Dawa party. Hizbullah barely existed in 1983 and Dawa cadres are said to have been instrumental in setting it up at Tehran's behest. Dawa's current leadership includes none other than the new Iraqi prime minister, Nuri al-Maliki, feted last week in London and Washington as the great hope for the future of the Middle East. As the old saying goes, today's terrorist is tomorrow's statesman - at least when it suits us...
