'Open Gaza' demo in Den Haag IMCista - 23.02.2008 22:44
About 200 people gathered at Buitenhof, Den Haag, today to protest against the ongoing Israeli siege of the Palestinian Gaza Strip, which has left the population in a humanitarian crisis, and show their solidarity with the Palestinians' struggle. Under the slogan "Open Gaza, destroy the walls", they held banners and placards with angry slogans, while speakers and Palestinian music occupied the stage. The demonstration was organised by the Nederlands Palestina Komitee, the Palestijnse Gemeenschap in Nederland and the Internationale Socialisten.
