The European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza (ECESG) Is an Anti-Israel, Pro-Hamas Umbrella Organization Which Participated in the Mavi Marmara Flotilla
The Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center October 5, 2010 The European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza (ECESG) is an anti-Israel, pro-Hamas umbrella organization which participated in the Mavi Marmara flotilla. The ECESG is currently involved in organizing an upgraded flotilla, and in other projects to further isolate Israel, part of the campaign to delegitimize it. The Sfendoni 8000, the ECESG's vessel in the Mavi Marmara flotilla. The number refers to the 8000 Palestinian terrorists detained by Israel. 253-10 2 Overview 1. The European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza (ECESG) is an anti-Israel, pro Hamas umbrella organization operating in Europe. It participated in the last flotilla (which ended with a violent confrontation aboard the Mavi Marmara) along with a coalition of four other anti-Israel organizations led by the Turkish IHH. Since then the ECESG and the other coalition members have been intensively promoting new programs with the objective of embarrassing Israel and deepening its isolation. The coalition projects include an upgraded flotilla which has been organizing for several months as Freedom Fleet 2 (its organizers hope to include more than 20 ships from various countries), and sending a plane to the Gaza Strip. 2. The ECESG was founded in 2007, the same year as Hamas' violent takeover of the Fatah and Palestinian Authority institutions in the Gaza Strip. Its declared objectives are "the complete lifting" of the so-called Israeli "siege" of the Gaza Strip and bringing humanitarian assistance to its residents. However, beyond that goal, which is supported by Western human rights organizations and activists, lie hidden its undeclared political objectives. -

Una Lettera Provinciale Al Presidente Del Parlamento
"PER L'UMANITA' INTERA, NESSUNO ESCLUSO". SOSTENIAMO L'INIZIATIVA DEL PRESIDENTE DEL PARLAMENTO EUROPEO PER LA LIBERAZIONE DI LEONARD PELTIER In questi giorni l'attenzione dei mezzi d'informazione, e quindi dell'opinione pubblica, e' concentrata sulla tragedia afgana, e giustamente. Ma vorremmo che non venisse oscurato, e quindi ignorato, un fatto di grande importanza: la decisione del Presidente del Parlamento Europeo, David Sassoli, di chiedere al Presidente degli Stati Uniti d'America la grazia per Leonard Peltier, l'illustre difensore dei diritti umani dei nativi americani, vittima di una spietata persecuzione politica, dal 1977 ingiustamente detenuto dopo un processo-farsa in cui gli sono stati attribuiti delitti che non ha commesso. Il Presidente del piu' ampio e quindi rappresentativo parlamento democratico d'Europa ha accolto e fatto proprio l'invito promosso da prestigiose personalita' come don Luigi Ciotti, Nando dalla Chiesa, Raniero La Valle, Gad Lerner, Luisa Morgantini, Moni Ovadia, padre Alex Zanotelli, di Sindaci di vari Comuni d'Italia tra cui quelli di Aosta, Bologna, Pesaro e Verbania, di numerosissime altre personalita' della cultura, della riflessione morale, dell'impegno civile, della solidarieta' concreta, delle istituzioni democratiche. Si ricordera' peraltro che gia' da molti anni la liberazione di Leonard Peltier e' stata chiesta da figure come Nelson Mandela, madre Teresa di Calcutta, il Dalai Lama, Rigoberta Menchu', Desmond Tutu, Shirin Ebadi ed altre autorevolissime personalita' di tutto il mondo. Che la richiesta della grazia presidenziale che finalmente liberi un uomo innocente e valoroso sia formulata dal Presidente del Parlamento Europeo e' un fatto politico ed istituzionale di straordinaria rilevanza e la Casa Bianca non potra' non tenerne conto. -

16 Jan 2014 to Whom It May Concern Dear Messers, I Am the General
16 Jan 2014 To whom it may concern Dear Messers, I am the General Director of Al-Harah Theater in Palestine. A non-governmental organization working in Palestine, the Middle East and Europe. Matteo Lombardi has been cooperating with our theatre company since 2006, when I met him as a participant of a knowledge trip in Palestine organized by Luisa Morgantini and the European Parliament. In 2006, he also worked as international observer with the EU for the Palestinian elections. Al Harah Theatre Bethlehem has been cooperating with him and his organization many times since then. In 2007, Matteo supported us to organize our show "Born in Bethlehem" in Milan and we met many time in Italy to discuss the implementation of other projects. In particular, we were a partner organization in the international workshop project co-financed by the EU through the youth in action programme "PEPATO" (Participation, Empowerment, Peace, Act, through Theatre of the Oppressed) in September 2009. Five of our actors could travel to Milan, where the workshop took place and where Matteo was one of the main trainers. His skills of TO (Theatre of the Oppressed) where really useful for them once they came back to Palestine to work here in Bethlehem (the workshop was about how to use TO in a nonviolent way to manage a conflict - the topic of the workshop was chosen through a detailed work on the need of the partner involved in the project). Moreover, Matteo has been organizing and arranging a tour to Palestine for a 20/25-group of people every year since 2010. -
