Characteristic features are the military occupation by a foreign power, who is trying to change the culture by introducing its own people into the region, suppressing the indigenous language, and local autonomy.

Where the people have been subject to a long and brutal occupation.

May the occupation soon end and the people be free!


Principles for the Solution of the Occupation of Palestine

1. Two sovereign states--Israel and Palestine--living side by side in peace and security based on the borders of June 4, 1967 with mutually agreed upon territorial adjustments.

2. An end to the Israeli occupation and the evacuation of all Israeli settlements, save for equitable arrangements mutually agreed upon by the negotiating parties.

3. A just solution for the Palestinian refugee problem, in accordance with international legality and the relevant UN resolutions.

4. A shared Jerusalem open to all faiths, serving as the capital of two states, providing for the fulfillment of the political aspirations of both the Palestinian and Israeli peoples.

5. Full acceptance of Israel by all Arab states, and normalized diplomatic and economic relations throughout the region.

6. A "Marshall Plan" style package of aid and investment for Palestine and the new Middle East.

Could have the same problem as under the Talaban,
 if the central government authority is not quickly extended to the whole county.

Stop the use of drugs to save the lives of its people!

 

Lets not let American footprints as occupying troops

West Africa

Too many guns, bought with money from diamond sales, support local warlords who cause instability.
Men are forced to mine the Diamonds under inhumane conditions.
Children are forced to be soldiers, instead of going to school.

Boycott Diamonds to stop the Blood Money!
