CITIZEN HEARINGS ON THE IMPACT OF US WEAPONS ON CIVILIANS IN GAZA

Citizen Hearings on the Impact of US Weapons on Civilians in Gaza will feature eye-witness testimony from residents of Gaza, weapons experts and first hand responders. Testimonies will be heard by a Panel of Listeners who will make recommendations to their sponsoring agency, institution or constituents. The event will be recorded and made available for future use, along with a curriculum guide for lobbying.

Testifiers include: Amr Shurrab who was on the phone with his father while he watched his two brothers killed before his eyes; Reem Salahi, a lawyer with National Lawyer's Guild and Sandee Scott (a nurse who went with Global Exchange) among others.

Interfaith Witness for Middle East Peace is a coalition of interfaith and community organizations committed to human dignity, equality and security for all inhabitants of the Holy Land. We are deeply concerned about the use of US weapons in the recent assault on Gaza.
