Description |
The seventh of ten sessions of a season of Palestinian films, talks and discussions, held at WFA Media and Cultural Centre in Manchester and entitled 'Israel's Iron Fist Policy in the Occupied Territories', with speaker Dr Salim Sakakini, a Palestinian and member of the Palestinian Solidarity Campaign (PSC). Salim speaks about the extent of this policy to encompass every aspect of life, economic, social, political, cultural. He identifies the three main aspects of the policy as being land grabbing and settlement building; silencing any opposition and blocking the capacity for any group to emerge to negotiate; and the economic integration of Palestine with Israel and the use of Palestinians as low waged and discriminated workers. His talk is followed by questions and contributions from the floor |
