*Intifada,
from Arabic literature, meaning “a jumping up” (in reaction to
something), from the verb intafada “to be
shaken, shake oneself.”
Around the world people took to the streets outraged by the
scenes of death and destruction in the Gaza Strip that began when
Israel bombarded the coastal territory on 27 December. The below
images were sent to The Electronic Intifada from around the world
and document various actions, demonstrations and vigils in
solidarity with Gazans under siege.
