MER - Washington - 26 May: For the past three years Parry, a British national, has worked with considerable dedication at Bir Zeit University, the largest and most important Palestinian university. He has been the primary inspiration behind creation of the Bir Zeit Web site, and has personally published a running Internet Diary outlining what he and others connected with Bir Zeit have experienced. In recent months Parry has courageously spoken up against PA intimidation and police-state tactics, in addition to continuing to chronicle the ongoing misdeeds of the Israeli occupation army and ongoing settlement expansions. The destruction of Parry's home in Ramallah, not far from Bir Zeit, is another loud message to all who are under PA control not to speak up in any way against Arafat's police-state rule. If this can be done to a British national with considerable contacts and friends outside of Palestine, the message is clear to Palestinians - "Shut Up, Or Else". |
