Stop Prawer Plan: Day of Action November 30th (fromthe Palestinian BDS movement website):
"On 24th of June, the Israeli Knesset approved the Prawer-Begin plan,which if implemented will result in the destruction of more than 35unrecognized villages in Al-Naqab and the forced expulsion and confinement ofmore than 70,000 Palestinian Bedouins. The Prawer plan is the largest Israeliland-grab since 1948. It epitomizes the nature of Israel's policy;Israeli-Jewish demographic expansion and Palestinian-Arab demographiccontainment."
The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement has put out a call for a Day ofRage and action against the Prawer Plan and the Jewish National Fund, a funderand leader in the effort.

The International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network encourages andsupports Jewish anti-Zionist students in self-organizing in support of thePalestinian movement for self-determination. We believe that anti-ZionistJewish students have a unique role to play as part of this struggle, and injoint struggle, with other organizing on campus against racism, war andmilitarism, prisons and policing, environmental destruction and pinkwashing.
We can provide: resources for study, powerpointsfor workshops and be in touch with individuals as well as groups to thinkthrough how an anti-Zionist perspective and work can best support organizing onyour campus.On Saturday evening 2 November,protestors gathered outside as the Tricycle opened an Israeli-sponsored Jewishfilm festival.
The livelyand colourful protest was called by the International Jewish Anti-ZionistNetwork, in response to the Israeli Embassy's sponsorship of the Tricycle'sFestival. People from different faiths, including an Israeli activist,Palestinian solidarity activists, and campaigners from the KentishTown-based Global Women's Strike, came together to remind the Tricycle that atthe very same time that they hosted the festival last year, Israel was bombingGaza, killing 158 Palestinians; including 30 children.
Protestors, who have valued theTricycle for decades through its vitally informative and entertaining playsabout Afghanistan, Ireland's Bloody Sunday, US Guantanamo, the Stephen LawrenceInquiry, and more, are appalled at the Tricycle hosting a film festivalsponsored by a government whose major industry is repression, not only ofPalestinians but around the world.
With placards and a loudspeaker theyhighlighted that Israel had broken the international boycott of apartheid South Africa - supplying itwith military hardware and training, and helping build its nuclear industry;had armed the Argentinean junta even as it killed thousands, including manyJews; had helped arm and train the Rwandan military and Hutu militia whichcommitted genocide against the Tutsis; and helped arm the Sri Lankan governmentwith warfare technology, including drones, enabling it to massacre tensof thousands of Tamils.*
Protestors were shocked that theTricycle was not only using security guards who refused to identify themselves,but also that a vanload of police had been called on an entirely peacefulprotest. The protestors, who are mainly local residents and theTricycle's most loyal audience, have written to the new artistic director ofthe Tricycle, Indhu Rubasingham, to say: "Given that Israeli apartheid is not loved, especially inmulti-racial Kilburn . . . Is this who the Tricycle wants to be associatedwith?
