@ Timothy: as far as I can tell, this occupation is peaceful and is backed by student and popular support; the Israeli occupation of Palestine is inherently violent, backed by force and superior arms, and draws condemnation from the global community.

Occupations can win concessions. London School of economics agreed to condemn the bombing and send educational aid to Gaza. Nottingham Socialist Party supports your campaign. Our members have visited the occupation along with the many others who have shown their solidarity.
We support the idea of workers sanctions against the arms imports to Israel. Mass action to destroy the boarders that imprison Gaza.

Well done to the Notts activists – as a former Notts student, I’m proud of their efforts to stand in solidarity with the Gazan resistance.
