Salma interviews two of the 1400 Gaza Freedom Marchers currently in Cairo, Egypt, where Egyptian police are harassing them and preventing entry into Gaza. One is from Woodstock NY and is on hunger strike. The other is from the nation of Portugal. These are no ordinary interviews!
As a postscript, we hear the audio from a recent Youtube posting, indicating that Israel's brutal siege of Gaza, blessed and financed by president Obama and both houses of Congress, has finally begun to appear in mainstream corporate media.
As our treasured associate Salma Abu Ayyash has been urging on this program... WHISPER, TALK OR SCREAM, but DO NOT remain silent!

This Week In Palestine (a weekly part of Truth and Justice Radio) is (normally) a three-quarter-hour segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization, and now bombing, devastation, imprisonment, and murder, of their homeland, thanks in part to U.S. taxpayer funding.
It's part of Truth and Justice Radio, aired Sundays 6-9:30am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, streaming (and also archived for two weeks) at wzbc.org. Our website, truthandjusticeradio.org, links to audio archives of 2008/2009 editions of This Week In Palestine; even more editions are obtainable at the URL "tinyurl.com/twiplist2" which links to our postings on radio4all.net.
The most important message we repeat is that all caring humans must GET INVOLVED!
