Religion, Racism, Corporatism and the Suffering of Gaza.,

1 14 min interview with Elizabeth Corriie, a peace activist from Georgia, USA.

In June 2004, peace activist Elizabeth Corrie from Georgia US, visited ireland to publicise the illegal suffering of Palestinians at the hads of the US and Israeli States. Her cousin Rachel has been killed in mysterious circumstances while trying to prevent the demolition of a civilian house in Rafah, Gaza Strip, in March 2003.

Elizabeth is determined that her cousin will not have died in vain.

In this interview, Elizabeth speaks about the immanent withdrawl of IDF from the Gaza Strip, the possibility of a united Israeli-Palestinian State, and most crucially, the money trail and racist ideologies behind US and Israeli policies and attitudes.

The interview was recorded on June 17th 2004, and first broadcast on Near FM (a community radio station in Dublin) on July 1st 2004 - a programme called Majority World which can be heard live-streaming at www.nearfm.ie on Thursdays 4:30-5:30 pm Irish Time, and repeated Friday morning 9-10 am Irish Time.

The bitrate is only 32kbps. here so i don't think FM rebroadcasts will work well - but I think 32 is more accessible to all, and much quicker for the slow uploading speed of my ISP.

just listen to the mp3., then make a comment. The article is the mp3., everything else is just description of it.

'illegal suffering' is no better than legal suffering, but I was making the rhetorical point that International Law (for what its worth) finds the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip and Occupied Territories, as well as collective punishment and extra-judicial killings, illegal.

When you've heard the recording it took meseveral hours (with busses and editing) to complete, you might also like to decipher some of that stuff you wrote in iabout a minute.

"Illegal suffering of the palestinians at the hands of the US and Israeli state"

"Illegal suffering" ??? Are you suggesting that some of the suffering of Palestinians at the hands of ZIonist invadors is LEGAL??? What makes that suffering LEGAL???

Wow, the fine line between Zionists being CRIMINAL murderous thieves and Zionists exersizing thier right to self determination, which to some brainwashed foools clearly includes the birthright of murderous theft of SOME Palestinian lands, is that the judeo-christian dominated 1947 UN gave the Zionists thier blessings for Zionists to be murderous thieves of SOME Palestinian lands. What a load of CRAP.

Slavery was once legal. For slavery to exist, you need 3 things: Slaves, masters, and the political systom that thinks it gets to decide who gets to dump on whom. Don't be fooled into believing that because the judeo-christian dominated UN gave ZIonists thier blessins to be murderous thieves makes the ZIonist's offenses anything but a crime. This sin't the first time that Judeochristian folks decided that Europeans had a right to crusade in the same land and many other middle eastern lands. .
