  Bil’in on Madison Avenue: protest against Leviev

 Bush speeches and Gaza reality
Sam Bahour - ISM - If I were President Abbas I would tell the world that the Palestinian people will remain committed to the two-state solution until the end of 2008, and after that, if the international community fails yet again to end this nightmare of occupation, the Palestinian people will return to their original strategy of calling for one democratic secular state, where Palestinians and Israelis of all religions can live in dignity and mutual respect as equals.

 Bil’in`s Abdullah Abu Rahme wounded second time in a week
ISM Reports - Near the end of the demonstration, army snipers shot Bil’in Popular Committee member Abdullah Abu Rahme in the head with a rubber-coated steel bullet. Abdullah was also one of the activists hospitalized a week ago when settlers attacked a group of Palestinians who were non-violently protesting the placement of more caravans on their land. After the soldier shot Abdullah, he dances a bit and cheers, telling his comrades-in-arms that he “got one in the head!”

 UK applauds resumed fuel flow to Gaza
Itamar Sharon - Jerusalem Post - The decision was part of the state`s reply to the Supreme Court to petitions submitted by the Gisha and Adala NGOs that both demanded an injunction forcing the state not to cut the supplies (...) the renewed supplies would be enough to maintain electricity flow to institutions such as hospitals and infirmaries.

 Reporter offers Bush a Gaza, West Bank misery tour
Ben Wedeman - CNN - I spend a lot of my time covering the West Bank and Gaza: here`s what I see, and he won`t. Bush didn`t go to Gaza (...) He didn`t see Nablus...

 CIA: We said back in 1974 that Israel had nuclear weapons
Amir Oren - Haaretz - This document, top secret for 32 years, was suddenly released to the public during President Bush`s visit to the Middle Eeast. The CIA did not answer an inquiry about the strange coincidence of its release soon after the National Intelligence Estimate asserting that Iran`s nuclear weapons program was stopped in 2003.

 International peace activists turned back at the Allenby Bridge
Saed Bannoura - IMEMC - [It seems that in order to be allowed by the Israeli authorities to visit the West Bank you need to be at least the President of the United States. Ed.]

 Sharon, savior of the settler, killer of Palestine
Bradley Burston - Haaretz - The hard right and the fanatically religious can curse Sharon, gloat at his unacitation and burn him in effigy. Still, he may have done their work for them. In erasing all traces of Israel in the Gaza Strip in 2006, Sharon may have guaranteed the occupation of the West Bank and Jerusalem lands captured in 1967. ,
