AltMediaF participates in Sanctions Against Israel March

AltMediaF is part of the Sanctions Against Israel Coalition -- In exchange for support of our call for Corporate Sanctions against Media24, the forum participated in yesterday's ralley in Cape Town. An estimated 3000 people attended the protest against Israeli aggression in Lebanon, however, AltMediaF has distanced itself from calls by some in the coalition for the "destruction of the Israeli state". The dismantling of the nation-state can only come about by peaceful means and via a reorganisation of the structure of the United Nations.

AltMediaF believes people should be free to debate the issues at hand, and to hold different opinions and points of view. It respects freedom of speech and the right to protest against Israeli as well as Palestinian aggression. The forum does not support violence of any kind or the threat of force.
