|
Our organization has made partnerships with many european lawyers to promote the peace in the world, as well as Amnesty and many other international organizations. we are ready to participate in any partnership and network to strengthen the global movement for a culture of peace.
|
ACTIONS: What activities have been undertaken by your organization to promote a culture of peace and nonviolence during the ten years of the Decade? If you already made a report in 2005, your information from 2005 will be included in the 2010 report.
|
We formed our organization lately in 2008, so until now we did not have the opportunity to participate in writing any report for promoting a culture of peace and nonviolence during the ten years of the decade.
|
PROGRESS: Has your organization seen progress toward a culture of peace and nonviolence in your domain of action and in your constituency during the second half of the Decade? |
From 2008 until now our organization has filed many complaints against the violence committed by the Israelis against the Palestinian civilians in Gaza. We saw a little progress in the International Criminal Court as it starts to study these complaints hoping that it will soon open the investigations to prosecute every criminal and spread peace in this world. Our organization hold also the responsibility of many cases in the Arab world and particularly Lebanon, including the case of Ali Hussain Sibat, who was a presenter on a TV show on the Lebanese satellite TV station Sheherazade, where he gave advice and predictions about the future. He was arrested by the Mutawaeen (religious police) on charges of sorcery in May 2008 while he was in Saudi Arabia to perform a form of Muslim pilgrimage, the umra.
|
OBSTACLES: Has your organization faced any obstacles to implementing the culture of peace and nonviolence? If so, what were they?
|
the only obstacle we are facing concerning our case before the ICC, is the delay of the court to start investigations in this issue, noting that our complaints include all the articles of the Rome Statute that Israel has violated in its war against Gaza. Otherwise, we make every effort to spread peace and justice in the whole world.
|
PLANS: What new engagements are planned by your organization in the short, medium and long term to promote a culture of peace and nonviolence?
|
Our organization will never stop all its efforts and attempts until prosecuting all the criminals and stop violence and spread peace. Given that we file every month a new complaint inluding new facts and crimes committed by these criminals, as well as the laws that indict them. On the other hand, our organization has many plans listed among its activities concerning: Academic Freedom AIDS and Human Rights Arms Caste Discrimination Child Soldiers Children's Rights Collective Punishments Corporations and Human Rights Counterterrorism Diplomatic Assurances Drugs and Human Rights Economic, Social and Cultural Rights Human Rights Defenders Home Demolitions International Criminal Court International Court of Justice Labor & Human Rights Press Freedom Prison Conditions and the Treatment of Prisoners Racism and Human Rights Refugees Religious Freedom Terrorism Torture and Abuse Opportunism Watch: Repression in the Name of Anti-Terrorism United Nations Women's Rights Zionist Occupation of Palestine
|
GLOBAL MOVEMENT: How do you think the culture of peace and nonviolence could be strengthened and supported at the world level??
|
To strengthen and support the culture of peace and nonviolence at the world level, all these nongovernmental organizations should unite and indict all the persons who are the reason of this violence in the world and who are an obstacle before spreading peace in this world.
