No child behind bars Jan 18, action alert on illegal settlements & Jan & Feb Palestinian rights events

[palestinianrightssacregion at list.omsoft.com]

Take action:
Tell Senator Kamela Harris to remove her name as a co-sponsor of Senate
Resolution 6, which supports Israel's illegal settlements, and to vote
against it when it comes to the Senate Floor. Tell Harris she is starting
off on the wrong foot - backing the Israel lobby instead of standing up for
human rights and international law - including those of Palestinians!  Sen
Res 6 denounces last month's United Nations action affirming that Israel's
settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, are illegal. Click for more
