Stop the Slaughter in Gaza! A demonstration in support of the Palestinian people will take place in The Square, Tralee, Saturday 10th Jan @ 11.30am

What is happening in Gaza is nothing less than collective punishment of a civilian population.

Israel is saying: \"This is what you get when you support Hamas\"

This is Israel flexing its military might after its previous humiliation in Lebanon, re-establishing itself as the biggest bully on the block.

This is Israel pretending to be involved in a pretended \"War on Terror\".

This is part of a new process of making Arabs and Muslims into \"The New Jews\" of the World, a scapegoat population to be demonised and destroyed. These are the people its supposed to be OK to hate.

This is illegal and immoral.

This is madness.

"Stop The Slaughter in Gaza!"
Assemble: The Square, Tralee
Date: Saturday 10th Jan @ 11.30am

Start: 13:00

Israel’s mass slaughter and devastation of Gaza shows its barbarity has no limits. In the last two days, missiles hit a mosque and Gaza’s biggest open market, killing women and children in both cases.

Half of Gaza’s population of 1.5 million Palestinians are children, dozens of whom have been killed or injured in the past week. Hospitals in Gaza are overflowing with dead and wounded while facing severe shortages of essential medical supplies. Hospitals have no electricity and say their emergency generators are close to collapse. United Nations representatives say the horror unleashed by Israel is “inhuman” and Gaza’s population is “trapped, traumatised and terrorised”.

Start: 13:00
