From hnkaram at MIT.EDU Wed Aug 2 09:02:48 2006 From: hnkaram at MIT.EDU (Hanan Karam) Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2006 09:02:48 -0400 (EDT) Subject: [LCM Events] Please sign call to UN General Assembly for immediate ceasefire in Lebanon Message-ID: <2017862.1154523768149.JavaMail.root@i2.prod.democracyinaction.com> Hi, I hoped you might want to sign this petition calling for the UN General Assembly to bring about an immediate ceasefire in Lebanon, Israel, and Gaza. Under international law the UN Security Council is supposed to act to stop crimes against peace, but when it fails to do so, the UN General Assembly can act (see Brecher and Smith, "A Road to Peace in Lebanon?" http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0727-27.htm. ) Here are the links for signing, followed by the text. Thank you for considering this action. For individuals: http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/organizationsORG/justforeignpolicy.org/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=325 For organizations: http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/organizationsORG/justforeignpolicy.org/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=326 To: United Nations General Assembly Cc: Non-Aligned Movement Organization of the Islamic Conference Arab League Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries Petition for an Emergency United Nations Resolution on Lebanon, Israel, and Gaza To Bring About an Immediate Unconditional Cease-Fire in Lebanon, Israel, and Gaza We, the undersigned, Deploring the current bombing and invasion of Lebanon by foreign forces as an act of aggression in violation of the United Nations Charter and international law; Concerned by the Security Council's failure to condemn the current bombing and invasion of Lebanon and to call for an immediate unconditional cease-fire to end the bombing of Lebanon, the rocket attacks on Israeli cities and towns, and the military attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure in Gaza; Further concerned by actions of the United States and the United Kingdom to obstruct efforts to bring about an immediate cease-fire in Lebanon, Israel, and Gaza; Troubled by the humanitarian crisis, violations of human rights, and destruction and recognizing the urgent need for international assistance to the Lebanese people and the Palestinian people in Gaza; Since the Security Council, because of lack of unanimity of the permanent members, has failed to to halt the threat to peace, we call upon all Member States of the United Nations to immediately convene an Emergency Meeting of the General Assembly, under the provisions of General Assembly Resolution 377 (V), Uniting for Peace, to act to bring about an immediate unconditional cease-fire, and to enforce the obligations of states and armed groups to comply with international law; and furthermore, To mandate immediate cooperation of all nations in the cessation of armed attacks by all parties; the immediate withdrawal of the occupying forces; the coordination, by the United Nations, of the response to the humanitarian disaster in Lebanon and Gaza, with particular attention to provision of medical care, food and restoration of water and electricity supplies; and furthermore, To enforce the obligations of the invading forces under the provisions of the Hague Regulations, Geneva Conventions and other applicable international agreements; to prevent the further destruction of Lebanon and Gaza's infrastructure; to provide for full reparation to the Lebanese people and Palestinian people in Gaza for damages caused and precipitated by the unlawful use of military force; and to ensure the removal of cluster bombs and un-detonated munitions. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We will have a big Community meeting in order to organize and mobilize. Every Concerned person should make sure to call at least Ten Others.

God Bless, Fr. Timothy The Supplication Service to the Most Holy Theotokos For Those Suffering in Lebanon Wednesday, 9 August at 7 p.m. St. George Orthodox Church 55 Emmonsdale Road, West Roxbury The Supplication Service is offered for the welfare of the living, especially those who are suffering and oppressed. It is addressed to the Most Holy Theotokos or a Saint whose intercessions are sought through the chanting of supplicatory prayers and other hymns. The most popular Supplication Service is that in which the prayers and hymns are addressed to the Most Holy Mother of God for a special intention. The Supplicatory Hymns to the Most Holy Theotokos was authored by Theosterictus the Monk (9th century), and prayed in Constantinople during times of invasion, siege and civil strife. It has been prayed since then as a comfort during times of civil unrest. On Wednesday, we will offer these prayers and hymns for the restoration of peace and on behalf of the innocent victims who are suffering in Lebanon. Commemoration of the local Saints of the region will be made. Special prayers will be included for the memory of those who died in the current conflict. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It's a great opportunity for us to see our Lebanese squad playing against very strong and famous basketball teams that have many players in the NBA. Here is a link of the page showing all the channels broadcasting this world cup: http://www.fiba.com/pages/eng/fe/06_wcm/mediCent/tvBroaCast/fe_mediCent_tvBroaCast.asp?selNodeID=693&openNodeIDs=693&eventID=3507&roundID=3507 The American Channels (ESPN2/NBATV) will only broadcast the games of the American team. But we know that Aljazeera Sports is airing all Lebanon's games for sure. So does anyone know a place where we can watch Aljazeera Sports? Or how can we subscribe to it? If subscribing to Aljazeera Sports is not possible, what about all the other channels on that list? Is any of them showing Lebanon's games? The first game of Lebanon is this Friday on 10:20pm (Eastern Time). We will be playing against Venezuela. It will be great to get together, watch the game, have some drinks, and celebrate the end of the war! Please reply back to lebanon-events at mit.edu so we all get updated at the same time.

Although most of us in the Boston area may not be attending, we can still be of great assistance to Wafa Kanan, the organizer. She is currently looking for sponsorships, and has requested that people who work in different companies inquire about whether or not they would be willing to sponsor the event. Companies being consulted include Pepsi, L'Oreal, Procter and Gamble, etc... Also, if any of you are in touch with performers who may be willing to offer their time and talent at this event, please let her know. The event aims to be a MASSIVE one - raising $10 million total, drawing worldwide media attention to the humanitarian situation in Lebanon, while attracting very influential people, artists, musicians, actors and actresses. Please see the documents for more detailed information about the event and what she needs assistance in. Please spread the word. Thanks so much for your help, in advance.
