The fact that there is no scientific element to prove that black people are more sensitive to the medicine causes a thorny debate like it happens every time that any predisposition is linked to the people’s skin color. Thus, taking into account the long record of racial discrimination of the American society and the health consequences that this case entails, it would be right to ask whether NitroMed is simply trying to exploit a market developed by the food industry among the poorer classes of the population and using the current debate as a publicity campaign. Through original investigations and analysis, everyday the Focus section highlights a trend in international events. A protest campaign in France Olivia Zemor: "Israel is Lying!" Olivia Zemor is a co-founder of CAPJO (Coordination des Appels pour une Paix Juste au Proche-Orient -Coordination Group Calling for a Just Peace in the Middle East), a movement which is currently known as CAPJO-Euro-Palestine. After the presentation of a list of candidates to the recent European elections, Olivia Zemor tells about the actions carried out in France to demand the respect of Human Rights in Palestine. Zemor responds to questions made by Silvia Cattori in a moment in which 60 French associations organize a protest campaign to mark the first anniversary of the condemnation of the Isareli wall by the International Court of Justice, The Hague, and against the visit of General Sharon in Paris. Olivia Zemor Silvia Cattori: Were you surprised by French President Jacques Chirac’s invitation to Ariel Sharon? What do you think it was aimed at? Olivia Zemor: The French Minister of Foreign Relations announced Sharon’s visit in April 2004. Then, a great protest campaign was launched against the visit of this war criminal to France. More than 30 000 cards were sent to President Jacques Chirac and posters were stuck as well. The visit did not take Page 2 July 5, 2005 Voltaire - www.voltairenetwork.net place but the French government kept making concessions to Israel and increased its collaboration with this country, including the military field. Nicolas Sarkozy, Jean-Pierre Raffarin and Michel Barnier went to Israel and their statements were astonishingly submissive to Israel and its Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, who did not miss a chance to insult France and the French. The French leaders have supported the pro-Israeli pressure group in France and its blackmail regarding anti-Semitism. Therefore, we have no choice but to denounce -contrary to what other associations have done, that is to remain silent- the double standard of the French government, which supports the creation of a Palestine State and welcomes a dying Arafat while, on the other hand, stimulates Israel’s colonial and annexation policy by showing positive signs such as honoring its leaders and allowing the Israeli Army to collect money in the French territory by refusing to force Israel to apply international law. Jacques Chirac has given another step by inviting Sharon to France. It is a serious violation of the Human Rights that should be defended by our democracy. Sharon’s visit is expected to take place “after July 14 Celebrations.” Anyway, we have reacted (see the posters, slogans, pamphlets and the calls to participate in demonstrations available in our web site Europalestine). Right now, all organizations are urging people to participate in a massive demonstration which will take place on July 9, 2005 in Paris. Poster of the "Israel is lying" campaign (Text: "Israel talks about peace but takes the land") Considering that the media do not reflect these actions at all and that political authorities support the pro-Israeli pressure groups, the situation is extremely unfavorable for Human Rights in Palestine. What chances do you actually have of being heard? Olivia Zemor: Whereas in the very same Israel the media is also used by those who oppose Sharon’s policy, the situation in France is completely different. There are newspapers that define themselves as “progressive”, such as Le Monde and Libération, which refuse to give a space to Israelis such as Tanya Reinhart, Emmanuel Farjoun and Ilan Ppappe, who openly oppose Israel’s colonial policy. Nothing is published either on the abuses committed by the Zionist extreme right groups like Betar and the Jewish Defense League which are very active in our country despite being prohibited even in the United States. With regard to the pro-Israeli pressure groups in France, they not only have supporters in the media but in our government too. Nicole Guedj, one of the leaders of CCJO (Consultative Council of Jewish Institutions), was Secretary Page 3 July 5, 2005 Voltaire - www.voltairenetwork.net of State for Victims’ Rights until May and, as it happens, she regretted a lot the false anti-Semitic attacks (such as the RER D farce she widely publicized) but she never said a word about the numerous victims of real acts committed against the Arabs or the blacks. This is a situation we are constantly denouncing, whereas other Human Rights organizations usually support the anti-Semitism denunciations but do not condemn other forms of racism. Do you mean all your efforts are neutralized by those who defend adverse interests? Olivia Zemor: The truth is the intensification of Israeli military interventions in the territories is accompanied by a generalized intensification of the work of pro-Israeli groups in the whole world. Their objective is to present Israel as the victim, something that helps to divert attention from the violations the very same Israel is committing against Palestinians in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. In the regional perspective, the situation is quite disturbing too. The Israeli government wants the war to be extended in Iraq, Iran, Syria and Lebanon so that it can go on with the elimination of as many Palestinians as possible. This is a project called “transference.” Since Palestinians are very attached to their land, Israel tries to force them to leave by all kinds of pressures. It is actually a “disguised deportation” not to arise the hate of the public opinion. Are you saying the worst problem for Human Rights advocates in Palestine is to sensitize the public opinion? Olivia Zemor: Part of the public opinion is perfectly informed for they have access to Arab TV stations such Al-Jazeera; but another part is so badly informed that it can not understand what is really happening there. The very same term “Israeli-Palestinian Conflict” (which should be taken out of our vocabulary) makes us believe there is a war between two States, two Armies, when what we actually have there is an occupant and an occupied. The truth about the occupation, the State terrorism Israel is implementing, the long list of brutalities, humiliation and strangulation actions which all occupations bring along are deliberately concealed; the media confuse the people with false presentations such as “attacks/reprisals”, “return to the cycle of violence” which lead people to believe that all Israel does is to “guarantee its security” by committing “as in every single war” some excesses, of course.

  • The French Anti-Israeli Organization Europalestine Sent a Delegation to the Gaza Strip Hosted by the Hamas Administration
    December 31, 2012 The French Anti-Israeli organization EuroPalestine sent a delegation to the Gaza Strip hosted by the Hamas administration. The delegation held a small, low-profile display near the security fence and promised to promote Hamas' political agenda in France and international legal forums. Members of the EuroPalestine delegation create a display near the security fence (Shihab website, December 31, 2012) Overview 1. EuroPalestine is an anti-Israeli French organization headed by Olivia Zemor, a far-left Jewish-French activist. The organization participates in the campaign to delegitimize Israel and in the anti-Israeli BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanction) campaign. 2. EuroPalestine spearheaded three unsuccessful attempts to send thousands of activists to Israel on three occasions, twice through Ben-Gurion international airport (April 2010 and July 2011) and once over the Allenby Bridge (August 2012). All three events were intended as provocation, fodder for the media and to embarrass Israel. However, they did not receive the coverage the organizers hoped for and the event at the Allenby Bridge completely failed to attract media attention. 12-277 2 3. EuroPalestine recently sent a delegation of close to 100 activists to the Gaza Strip. On arrival they were received by members of the de-facto Hamas administration. They went to the border fence to hold a small low-profile display. They promised to promote Hamas' political agenda and propaganda in French discourse and in French and international legal forums. They were accompanied by members of other networks connected with the campaign to delegitimize Israel, among them nine activists from an anti-Israeli network called Freedom Flotilla Italia, involved in the Gaza Strip flotilla campaigns.

    Comunicato stampa: Se una sentenza di morte arriva a Gideon Levy Domenica mentre Parigi si accingeva a tenere la grande manifestazione a difesa dei valori dell'occidente, l’AURDIP (Association des Universitaires pour le Respect du Droit International en Palestine) ha emesso questo comunicato: «L’AURDIP s’associe à l’AFPS pour dénoncer la provocation obscène que constitue la participation de Benjamin Netanyahou à la “marche républicaine” organisée à Paris après les attentats meurtriers contre le journal Charlie Hebdo et une épicerie casher». Sempre domenica appariva su Haaretz un articolo di Gideon Levy, Meanwhile, Gideon Levy receives a death threat, che recita (in allegato 1 il testo completo in inglese): «Una lettera minacciosa inviata a Haaretz mostra che non sono solo gli estremisti islamici che cercano di impedire la libertà di stampa con la violenza. “La corte europea per i crimini antisemiti. La squadra esecutiva della Corte. “Re: Procedimenti contro i partecipanti ad attività anti-israeliane. “La Corte è stata richiesta di esaminare le attività contro Israele del giornalista Gideon Levy. “Il testimone numero 1 ha mostrato l'articolo ‘Lowest deeds from loftiest heights’ (Haaretz, July 15, 2014)…Il chairman della corte: La corte è stata convinta che si tratta di propaganda filo-nazista. Una volta che questo è stato provato, la corte non ha nessuna discrezionalità sul verdetto, quindi il sopracitato imputato è condannato a morte.

Morte per accidente: veleno, vespe, serpenti, virus, etc. “P.S: La corte Pulsa Denura non ha nessuna connessione con i sistemi di sicurezza israeliani… Questa corte è alla caccia dei nemici di Israele ovunque siano e i verdetti saranno eseguiti dalle squadre di esecuzione della corte”.
