Fowarding this message on behalf of someone:
"On 22nd November a group of activists from the UK will be heading out to the Middle East as a delegation to make solidarity with organisations fighting for peace and an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestine. The delegation has been organised my members of Alliance for Workers' Liberty (www.workersliberty.org) and opened up to any left activists.
During our 11 day visit to the region we will be meeting with activists and individuals including:
* Shministim (http://www.shministim.com/)
* Anarchists Against the Wall (http://www.awalls.org/)
* Al Qaws (http://www.alqaws.org/q/)
* Workers Advice Centre Israel (http://www.wac-maan.org.il/en/)
* Democracy and Workers' Rights Center Palestine (http://www.dwrc.org/)
* Stop the Wall Campiagn (http://www.stopthewall.org/)
* Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (http://www.icahd.org/)
* Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions (http://www.pgftu.org/ensite/)
* Gush Shalom (http://www.gush-shalom.org/)
* Hadash (http://hadash.org.il/)
So far there are 8 of us and we are collectively asking for any support you can offer. We need financial support more than anything - during our stay we will be having to travel a lot as well as paying for hostels and food. We are partaking in a couple of tours with some of the organisations we are visiting and we need to pay for the transport costs of these. We need to make the most of our time out therer and witness as much as we can and we need money to do this. We are planning our trip on a shoe string and so any help is very much appreciated!
You can help us by getting your trade union/students union/activist organisation to pass a motion to support us - this does not have to mean financial support as we are looking at twinning and building links between the workers and activist movements of the UK and those we meet so if your organisation wishes to support us in this way then please get in touch. Of course any donations or collections for our trip are welcome! We can send a speaker to any meeting if you think that would help - and we can send a speaker to any meeting upon our return to tell your organisation what their support helped us to do.
You can help us as an individual too! Any donation from a few pounds is going to help us squeeze the most out of our time - you can donate directly to us via PayPal to centre_stage_red@yahoo.co.uk or via post (email or message us for an address)!
Thanks so much for taking the time to read this - any messages of support for us or for the people we are meeting are always welcomed!"
