Press Release Israeli Soldiers Attack Peaceful Demonstration 24 December, 2001 A peaceful demonstration, in which thousands of Palestinians and around 100 foreigners participated, was met with violence by Israelis when troops in tanks and armoured personnel carriers attacked them with tear gas and rubber bullets. The demonstration organized by the Palestinian NGO network – PNGO, was held in conjunction with the Grassroots International Protection for Palestinian (GIPP), a programme whereby individuals from overseas visit Palestine to show solidarity with the Palestinian people, to learn more about the situation here, and to also fulfil the role of international observers. The march left the Menara and proceeded peacefully to Irsal Street, to where the Israeli army has moved, refusing to withdraw. The soldiers opened fire on the peaceful civilian demonstration, using tear gas and rubber bullets. Dozens of people required medical treatment, at least three of the foreign delegation and numerous Palestinians. Matthew, a 35-year-old French participant, was completely mystified by the Israeli soldiers behaviour, "I don't understand what these soldiers are doing, and I certainly do not know why they are attacking a peaceful civilian demonstration in this way". Others were also horrified, but assured Palestinians that upon their return home, they would tell everyone what they has seen here, and remain working with the Palestinians until they had a just and independent state.
