January 27, 2009
When Hanan Siam returned to review her house in Beit Lahia to the north of Gaza City, which she evacuated with her family during the Israeli heavy shelling of the area, she was astonished by the horrible destruction that changed the features of the landscape and transferred the whole area into huge cairns.
Following wondering in the Salatein Quarter, where she lives, after Israel declared ceasefire on 18/1/2009, Hanan describes the scene saying: "People were running from a place to another with wide astonished open eyes due to the horrible destruction while the aids teams were still digging with the ruins of the houses to pick up the corps of the martyrs a tens of bodies were discovered under the destruction in other places".

Avouch Your Legal and Human Responsibilities Towards Victimized Gaza |
|
6/1/2009
The Israeli aggression on Gaza is going on for the eleventh day resulting in hundreds of civilian victims of martyrs and wounded. The Israeli military institution is using all its modern militant equipment (air force, tanks, marines, and artilleries) against armless civilians in Gaza Strip.
The aggression did not start just eleven days ago but the road for it was paved since the mid of June 2007 when the Israeli government decided to besiege Gaza and deny right to mobility to its 1.5 million Palestinians. The Israeli siege banned providing Palestinians with medical relief and equipments as well as banning providing all types of fuel and food. The Israeli procedures reached their summit on the morning of 27/12/2008 when the Israeli air force started shelling Gaza City to declare its clear war against civilians in a way that violates all human rights especially right to life. The Israeli military and official propaganda hid behind the presence of missiles in Gaza that threaten its security to justify their aggression. However, it could not be imagined that shelling a house over the heads of two parents and their five kids was targeting the stores of missiles. Nor could it be imagined that such missiles are stored in the barrels (assigned for flour) as there was no flour allowed for Gazian people and consequently they store missiles instead. That was lying and falsifying truth, the thing that the Israelis are famous in doing.

Open Letter to President Sarkozy |
Mr. Nicolas Sarkozy
President of France
Mr. President,
 Palestinian women, living under a most oppressive occupation, deprived of their freedom and their rights address you today as heir to a people who offered the world the legacy of "Liberty, Equality and Fraternity" and that of a legendary resistance to the Nazi occupation.
With such a rich legacy, Mr. President, Palestinian women trust that you would not hesitate in upholding the principles of equality and freedom and applying them in dealing with world affairs, especially in Palestine, a country that has been subjected to one of the most protracted occupations in modern history.
