Egypt 13th protests day, Day of Martyrs
The protesters named the 13th day as “Day of Martyrs,” to honor fallen martyrs. They are now calling for fresh multi-million-strong marches across the crisis-hit country on Sunday, a Press TV correspondent said.
They have managed to keep their position despite a heavy army presence and attacks by pro-government thugs.
The protesters say their achievements in recent days make it impossible for them to turn back until Mubarak quits power.
Meanwhile, the Muslim Brotherhood has announced that it has started talks with the authorities.
"Keeping in mind the interests of the nation and its institutions and concerned about preserving the country's independence... we decided to begin talks to see up to what point they are ready to accept the demands of the people," AFP quoted an official from the Muslim Brotherhood as saying.
A report says the talks have already started between the two sides, while others say a dialogue between representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Egyptian cabinet is scheduled for Sunday.
The opposition group says the move is aimed at examining how ready the Egyptian government is to accept the demands of the people.
On Saturday, Egyptian state television announced that Mubarak has resigned as chairman of the ruling National Democratic Party.
Senior members of Mubarak's party also resigned on Saturday, but demonstrators staging a 12th day of revolution rejected the shuffle as a cosmetic move.
Mubarak also reportedly held talks with key cabinet members to try to kick-start Egypt's economy, which has been hit hard by the ongoing protests.

'Victory within reach of Egypt protesters'
Franklin Lamb told Press TV on Friday that the wave of protests indicates that embattled President Hosni Mubarak will inevitably have to give up power.
"I don't think it will take another week of protests. Today, important developments occurred at Liberation square in Cairo. Arab League Secretary Amr Moussa showed up and joined anti-Mubarak protests. Also, Al-Azhar Spokesman Muhammad Rifaa al-Tahtawi has resigned and joined the protests. He has vowed not to leave Liberation Square until Mubarak's regime is ousted," Lamb said.
His comments came as Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa joined anti-Mubarak protests in Cairo's Liberation Square.
Speaking on the possibility of running for president, the Arab League chief said, "I'm at the disposal of my country of course. But we will see the political developments."
Moussa was quoted by France's Europe 1 radio, as saying that he was "ready to serve as a citizen who has the right to be a candidate [for president]."
Meanwhile, several thousand troops have been deployed at key locations across Cairo.
The opposition has called Friday the 'Day of Departure,' saying the planned massive rally aims to force Mubarak into stepping down. Civil groups have also called for massive protests in Alexandria and Suez.
The developments come as the government continues its harsh crackdown on journalists and media to prevent news coverage of the rallies.
In a recent interview with ABC News, Mubarak said he is fed up with being president and would like to leave office but fears there will be chaos if he steps down.
He denied that his government was responsible for the violence in Cairo's Liberation Square.
Vice President Omar Suleiman on Thursday described the calls for Mubarak's resignation as calls for chaos.
Suleiman said the government has urged all parties, including the Muslim Brotherhood, to engage in national dialog.
The Muslim Brotherhood rejected the government's offer in a statement released on Thursday.
Protesters have vowed to stand firm despite the deadly clashes that left several people dead and at least 1,500 others wounded in Cairo on Wednesday and the early hours of Thursday.
According to the United Nations, at least 300 people have so far been killed and thousands more have been injured during nationwide protests in Egypt.
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said on Friday that the recent developments in North Africa are the result of the “Islamic awakening, which followed the great [Islamic] Revolution of the Iranian nation.”
The Leader also described Mubarak as the “lackey of the Zionist regime [of Israel].”

Adham Abu Salmiya, the spokesman for medical services, told the PIC that the shelling targeting Abu Safiya hilltop killed Amjad Al-Za'anin, 20, and wounded two other teens with shrapnel. IOF troops had raided northern and southern Gaza Strip areas earlier on Tuesday only to be met with resistance gunfire, PIC reporter said. He added that resistance elements blasted an explosive device near IOF armored vehicles, which was followed by intensive IOF firing at Palestinian homes and farms to the east of Beit Hnaun in northern Gaza. Quds Press reported that an IOF army chopper fired a missile at northern Gaza, east of Beit Hanun, during an incursion. In Rafah, the armed wing of the popular resistance committees fired five mortar rounds at the invading IOF unit east of the city. In another development, the armed wing of Hamas, the Qassam Brigades, announced that one of its cadres died in Khan Younis while on a "Jihad mission". It did not elaborate on exact cause of the death but only mentioned that he was 23-year-old Zaher Jarghun. |

Shin Bet chief: EU countries may recognize Palestine

Zionist regime’s Shin Bet Director Yuval Diskin told the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee that one of the scenarios in terms of international recognition of a Palestinian state is that additional countries, including European counties, will join the move.
A Palestinian source estimated earlier that Paraguay, Peru, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic would be next to recognize Palestine.

Palestinian flag raised in Washington

“We are proud to see the flag,” said the chief Palestinian envoy, Maen Areikat, who raised the flag on Tuesday, the Associated Press reported. He said, “It's about time that this flag that symbolizes the struggle of the Palestinian people for self-determination and statehood is raised in the United States. We hope that this will help in the international efforts to provide recognition for the Palestinian state.” Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, chairwoman of the US House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee, has called the move a stunt. “Raising this flag in DC is part of the Palestinian leadership's scheme to manipulate international acceptance and diplomatic recognition of a yet-to-be-created Palestinian state while refusing to directly negotiate with Israel,” she said in a statement.

| A Palestinian woman's finger was severed when Israeli prison guards slammed a door on her when she was visiting her son Bilal Abbas in the Israeli Ohlikdar prison.
Prison guards previously killed a Palestinian girl Rafida Badr after shutting a barrier gate on her head during a visit she made to her father.
The incident was one of thousands of incidents that take place during prison family visits, the prisoner society in Ramallah said.
In a separate development, Israeli authorities continue to isolate three female inmates of the Hasharon prison, the prison society said. Rights organizations have demanded their removal from solitary confinement.

Khamis Abu Rahmah suffered a fractured skull and brain hemorrhage
On 1 January 2011, 36-year-old Palestinian Jawaher Abu Rahmah from the West Bank village of Bilin died at a hospital from the effects of tear gas inhalation suffered at a protest the previous day against Israel's construction of a wall and settlements on Bilin's land. Jawaher is only the most recent protester killed or seriously injured by tear gas fired by the Israeli military. For example, Jawaher's brother Bassem was killed almost two years ago, and two US citizens, Tristan Anderson and Emily Henochowicz were injured in 2009-2010.
Much of Israel's tear gas is provided by the US company Combined Systems Inc. (CSI) located in Jamestown, Pennsylvania. The letters CSI, or CTS, a CSI brand name, are marked on many of tear gas canisters that litter Palestinian villages after they protest. The Israeli military is using CSI's tear gas as a weapon as it tries to crush the growing movement of unarmed protest against Israel's illegal confiscation of Palestinian land for Israeli settlements. Even more disturbing, US taxpayers are paying for at least some of the tear gas that Israel is shooting at Palestinian, Israeli and international protesters. For example, in 2007 and 2008, the US State Department provided $1.85 million worth of "tear gasses and riot control agents" to Israel as part of the US's $3 billion in annual military aid to Israel.
Act now by emailing executives at CSI, and at the companies that invest in CSI, the Carlyle Group and Point Lookout Capital, and tell them to stop providing their tear gas to the Israeli military, before more protesters are killed and maimed.
The Israeli military has a documented history of deliberately firing tear canisters directly at unarmed protesters, and of blanketing entire villages in clouds of tear gas whenever they hold protests against Israeli land seizure. Jawaher's brother Bassem Abu Rahmah was killed in April 2009 when he was hit in the chest with an extended range CSI tear gas canister fired directly at him by an Israeli soldier, according to B'Tselem. In the villages of Bilin and Nilin alone, 18 persons have been directly hit by extended range CSI tear gas canisters. Bilin resident Khamis Abu Rahmah suffered a fractured skull and brain hemorrhage after being shot in the back of his head. An Israeli soldier shot California resident Tristan Anderson directly in the head with a high velocity tear gas canister in a March 2009 protest in Nilin, leaving Tristan partially handicapped and suffering slight cognitive damage. New York City college student Emily Henochowicz lost her left eye when an Israeli soldier shot her directly in the face with an aluminum tear gas canister at a May 2010 protest at the Qalandiya checkpoint.
And no one knows the long-term health impact for residents of villages like Bilin and Nilin, and their Israeli supporters, who have been blanketed in tear gas at least once a week over a period of years, each time they hold their weekly protests against Israel's confiscation of their villages' land for Israel's wall and settlements.

Wikileaks: Israel planned to strike Hamas financially
A Wikileaks document states that Israeli Anti-Terrorism Bureau chief Danny Arditi had devised a plan to strike Hamas by boosting financial support to the West Bank government headed by Salam Fayyad, the Lebanese newspaper Al-Safir said Friday.
BEIRUT (Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - A Wikileaks document states that Israeli Anti-Terrorism Bureau chief Danny Arditi had devised a plan to strike Hamas by boosting financial support to the West Bank government headed by Salam Fayyad, the Lebanese newspaper Al-Safir said Friday. The plan is intended to establish a special Palestinian intelligence monetary unit under US and EU supervision.
The cable quotes Arditi as saying the proposal is aimed at destroying the Hamas group in Gaza financially and giving Fatah time to rebuild needed support.
According to the document, Israel's national security council has committed to an initiative to provide the Gaza Strip with enough money to buy only basic materials.
Adriti said Israel is discussing downsizing the amount of monies transferred to the Strip monthly, allowing only enough to prevent a collapse in the bankin

یک هنرمند امریکایی الاصل با نام لئو باسی مدتی است کارگاه ماکت سازی خود و نمایشگاه "اگر مسیح در قرن معاصر متولد می شد" را با هدف تنویر افکار عمومی مردم جهان نسبت به جنایات اسرائیل درسرزمین های اشغالی، از امریکا به اسپانیا منتقل کرده است.
به گزارش خبرگزاری قدس (قدسنا) به نقل ازخبرگزاری رویتر، ماکت "اگر مسیح در قرن معاصر متولد می شد" که توسط لئو باسی یک هنرمند امریکایی الاصل ساخته شده است چند روزی است که در مادرید اسپانیا به نمایش گذاشته شده است.
باسی قصد خود را از ساخت این ماکت این چنین بیان می کند: مردم بدانند که حقوق بشر در اسرائیل به هیچ وجه رعایت نشده و حتی مسیح نیز اگر در این روزگارمتولد می شد مورد آزار و اذیت صهیونیست ها قرار می گرفت.
ماکت باسی که به مساحت 16 متر مربع ساخته شده است صحنه هایی از تولد حضرت مسیح در کلیسای "مهد" واقع در بیت لحم را به نمایش گذاشته که حضرت مسیح توسط نظامیان اسرائیلی بازداشت شده، محل سکونت حضرت مریم توسط بلدوزرهای اسرائیلی تخریب می شود، نظامیان صهیونیست حتی از ورود فرشته ها به اسرائیل نیز ممانعت به عمل می آورند و بزرگان دینی آن دوران رانیز به اسارت می گیرند.
این نمایشگاه تا تاریخ ششم ژانویه در مادرید برپا می باشد و علاقمندان می توانند از طریق دوربین وب کم که در نمایشگاه نصب شده شاهد قسمت های مختلف این ماکت باشند.

Child arrested for throwing stones in East Jerusalem
since the beggining of 2010 , around 1000 Palestinian children were arrested
here photoes of one of them from 26 dec 2010Child arrested for throwing stones in East Jerusalem
While the third picture below shows the young man who was arrested in the background, it's difficult to tell if he was engaged in thorwing stones from the instant that was captured. The young child on the scooter to his right does not make the read any easier. Guilty or not, it would be terribly hard to see a child in one's family be taken away by authorities.

Gaza aid convoy heads for final stop
Gaza aid convoy heads for final stop
Sunday 26 December 2010 hour 4:36
"We really appreciate your effort to keep this momentum and to follow up your work," Abdullah said.
Laden with relief supplies, Asia to Gaza Solidarity Caravan of Asia 1 has left the Syrian capital of Damascus for the port city of Latakia in the northwest of the country.
The convoy, which currently has activists from 15 different nationalities onboard, began its journey from the Indian capital, New Delhi and traveled through Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and Lebanon.
The activists say they want to display solidarity with the Palestinian people in their resistance against Israel.
Tel Aviv has been enforcing an all-out land, aerial and naval blockade on the 1.5 million Palestinians in the enclave since mid-June 2007.
The mission has been welcomed by Khaled Meshaal, the political leader of the Palestinian resistance movement of Hamas, as well as Ramadan Abdullah, the leader of the Palestinian group of Islamic Jihad. "We really appreciate your effort to keep this momentum and to follow up your work," Abdullah said.
A seven-member delegation of Iranian lawmakers joined the mission while it was in the Syrian capital, Damascus.
The convoy plans to enter Gaza later in December, which marks the anniversary of the launch of the three-week-long Israeli war on the enclave. The onslaught killed more than 1,400 Palestinians.
There are fears that the mission might be fiercely confronted by Israel's military, which killed nine Turkish activists aboard Freedom Flotilla, an Ankara-backed humanitarian convoy, on May 31.
In this regard, an Indian activist on the mission told Press TV, “We are completely non-violent. We do not have weapons.”
In case of an attack, “We will face it with non-violence. We'll face it with a prayer in our hearts,” he added.
