IRREGULAR RHYTHM ASYLUM -blog

イスラエルにいる友人よりメールが来ました。新年そうそう、パレスチナのビリン村でイスラエル兵によってパレスチナ女性が殺されました。それもこの女性は、０９年にイスラエル兵に殺されたバッセムのお姉さんです。以下は、友人からのメールです。

２０１１年１月１日、パレスチナ西岸地区、ビリン村での隔離壁反対デモで、再度の死者が出ました。

死者はジャワヒー・アブラフマさん、２００９年、デモ中に胸に高速の催涙弾を受けて亡くなったバッセム・アブラフマ・アル・ハティーブの姉です。
デモ中に真正面からイスラエル兵が撃った催涙弾を吸い、催涙弾に含まれる強度の毒性の成分による呼吸困難、いかなる治療も効果を示さず、今朝息を引き取られました。

また、イスラエル内でも１月２日７時半より、国防省玄関前で抗議行動が行われました。
『デモで人殺しをするな！占領はもうたくさんだ！』などプラカードがあげられました。

日 本国内でも、イスラエル支援企業のボイコット運動（ＢＤＳ）が続いています。去年は、無印良品のイスラエル出店への反対運動が大阪や東京、ネット上で行わ れました。そして反対運動の結果、無印良品はイスラエル出店を中止しました。これからも、イスラエル支援企業をボイコットしてゆくことが、バッセムや、 バッセムの姉さん、イスラエル兵に殺された多くの仲間たちへの追悼にもなると思います。そして、パレスチナ内、イスラエル内の反占領運動や世界中で起きて いるＢＤＳと連帯してゆくことが、イスラエルの占領を止める第一歩になると思います。

Israeli forces kill woman in Bil’in

Jawaher Abu Rahmah, 36, was evacuated to the Ramallah hospital yesterday after inhaling massive amounts of tear-gas during the weekly protest in Bil’in, and died of poisoning this morning. Jawaher was not present at the demonstration. She was in her home, approximately 500 meters away from where the gas canisters landed, when she suffered the effects of gas that was carried over the village by wind. Abu Rahmah was the sister of Bassem Abu Rahmah who was also killed during a peaceful protest in Bil’in on April 17th, 2010.

Jawaher is the 21st person to be killed at a demonstration against the Wall.

Doctors at the Ramallah hospital fought for Jawaher Abu Rahmah’s life all night at the Ramallah Hospital, but were unable to save her life. Abu Rahmah suffered from severe asphyxiation caused by tear-gas inhalation yesterday in Bil’in, and was evacuated to the Ramallah hospital unconscious. She was diagnosed as suffering from poisoning caused by the active ingredient in the tear-gas, and did not respond to treatment.

Over a thousand people heeded to the call issued by the Bil’in Popular Committee Against the Wall and Settlements today, and joined the weekly demonstration. Despite the siege laid on the village by the Israeli army, activists – Palestinians, Israelis and internationals – swarmed the hills and valleys surrounding Bil’in by the hundreds and managed to join those already in the village.

Jawaher Abu Rahmah was the sister of Bil’in activist, Bassem Abu Rahmah, who was shot dead with a high velocity tear-gas projectile during a demonstration in the village on April 17th, 2009. See below for a video of his shooting.

Mohammed Khatib, a member of the Bil’in Popular Committee said this morning: “We are shocked and furious for Israel’s brutality, which once again cost the life of a peaceful demonstrator. Israel’s lethal and inhumane response to our struggle will not pass. In the dawn of a new decade, it is time for the world to ask Israel for accountability and to bring about an end to the occupation.”

Adv. Michael Sfard, who represents the village in an appeal against the Wall added: “The son was killed by a directly aimed projectile, the daughter choked in gas. Two brave protestors against a regime that kills the innocent and doesn’t investigate its criminals. We will not quiet, we will not give up, we will not spare any effort until those responsible will be punished. And they will.”
