Dear CT Greens, 
  
RE: The International Committee

In the past month, the main topic of concern among IC members has been the Israeli assault on Gaza, eliciting lots of discussion and action including:  sending a letter to the Greek Greens (with whom we have no personal contact as yet) encouraging them to protest the use of their country to ship arms to Israel; and ideas about organizing GP efforts in the BDS campaign against Israel which GPUS endorsed in response to a call from Palestinian civil society. http://www.gp.org/press/pr_2005_11_28.shtml 

Also, as a regular part of the IC's mission, we helped draft two GPUS press releases on the situation:
 Green Party: Israel-Palestine truce must include end of Israeli occupation and observance of international law or violence is likely to resume .   
 Green Party: Israel-Palestine truce must include end of Israeli occupation and observance of international law or violence is likely to resume   

Finally, we are about to consider a draft statement on the conflict to circulate among other Green parties for endorsement, about which I or the other CT reps to the IC will keep you posted.  

Justine McCabe
Co-Chair, International Committee, GPUS
