Ghassan Abu Sitta, eminent surgeon who spent months in Gaza during the current massacre, speaking now outside German Embassy London after being deported. “They want us to unsee what we have seen”.
My full solidarity, dear Dr Ghassan Abu Sitta. Your integrity seems to be unbearable to some.
Protest now at German Embassy London London. Protesting against the arrest and forced deportation of Ghassan Abu Sitta from Germany today. Eminent surgeon. Professor at Glasgow. Treated like a criminal for being Palestinian.
BREAKING: German police stormed the building and are demanding we stop the livestream of the Palestine Conference.
This is what democracy in Europe right now really looks like!

Dr Abu Sitta has been refused entry to Germany and faces deportation. He is a renowned surgeon who has saved countless lives in Gaza. As a German, with Jewish ancestors who fled the Holocaust, I am appalled. German Embassy London your government must apologise and re-invite now.
What a bloody marvellous woman. I bought Sweet Dreams when I was 14. I was spot-on. If others could be as brave please. No more embarrassed silence. Now is not the time. Annie Lennox
