Black Ribbon for Gaza
Written by Haitham Sabbah on 02. March 2008, 1039hrs // Part of Haitham Sabbah's adventure in Action, Gaza, Israel, Palestine, Terrorism, War Crimes // Other posts by Haitham Sabbah
Hi Haitham,
When the Virginia Tech shooting happened in the united states about a year ago, many people posted black-ribbon-vt pictures on their facebook/myspace profiles which spread the word and caused more awareness of it. Similar black ribbons were used in other tragic incidents.
Thus, i made this simple gaza black ribbon for use on facebook, so that people with Western contacts could help raise awareness of this human massacre. What do you think of that idea? Can you please put it up on your blog and encourage readers to spread the word as well please?
It is really unfortunate because here in the United States, not a single word was mentioned about the situation in Gaza in any of the major news networks. Not a single word. Nothing!! None of my colleagues know that anything is happening in Gaza at all.
Best Regards,

Thank you, Za3tar!
Please use the “Black Ribbon for Gaza” in all your communication media (e.g. email, forums, flickr, facebook, blog, etc…). Spread the awareness about the atrocities and war crimes conducted by the Israel-Nazi.
Grab the code (Hat tip: Miguel and Mary):

this is a very good idea! I will post a link to this on my blog, as well as try to make the technological leap to get this on all my emails until the siege is lifted and Gazans are spared even more horrors.
The world HAS to look at the unilateral war against Gaza and ACT! It is collective punishment, a war crime and genocide!

Don’t give up!
Continue bombing their civillians!
Kill all Jews!
Palestine will be ours forever!!!!

Sawt Alwaql,
How nice? And we all suppose to cheer up for your propaganda, right?
NO, we are not Nazis like your Zionist people. We don’t want to kill civilians and all Jews. But I’ll be happy to see all ZIONIST burn in hell.
BTW, the comment above comes from a Zionist who made it sound as if coming from an Arab. His/her IP records are as follows:
person: Meytal Mizrahi
address: Smile Internet Gold - LTD.
address: Alexander Yanai 1
address: Petah-Tikva
address: Israel

oh, Haitham, if you want to see the crap Zionists have done on my blog, check THIS out: http://peacepalestine.blogspot.com/2007/05/zionist-commenters-tell-us-tel-aviv-is.html
yup, the worst stuff comes from Zionists posing as Palestinians or Arabs. Funny how the “Anti-Zionist Jews” never seem to have a problem with these people and their disgusting antics….
Now, back to basics! Miguel has sent this, the code to upload your friend’s outstanding image, to put on sites, blogs, stationery, etc. Even a computer duffus like me figured out how to put it in the sidebar! Thank your friend for his initiative!
please share this image and post it where you can. It comes from http://sabbah.biz/mt/archives/2008/03/02/black-ribbon-for-gaza/
I already put it up.
Everybody can link it from my flickr page. Remember flickr can remove images which are not linked to their website but are hosted on it; the full code for linking is:
The size (width=”129″ height=”192″) was set for my blog, so as to be the same size as the other banners. However, one can set various sizes, depending on the format of one’s page.
Go here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/55428930@N00/2303482767/
and choose among “all sizes” at the top.
You can send this to everybody on your mailing list.

Call of justice is that everyone must stand in protest against all the injustices being caused on your soil. I appeal each & every concerned to raise the issue on right platform with due pressure.
I endorse my support in your struggle towards RIGHT AGAINST MIGHT.
