GIG-FOR-GAZA ROARS LOUDER THAN DOHA DEBACLE

September 22 United Nations summit, hoping it will reaffirm East Jerusalem as the capital of the future Palestinian state.

GIG-FOR-GAZA ROARS LOUDER THAN DOHA DEBACLE

Apart from a few positives, the Qatar summit served neither man nor beast. The message it sent to Israel was clear: we make noise with our mouths, not with our guns.

How can they, when the weapons they buy from the US come with a caveat—they must not be used against Israel? Besides, it’s no secret that Israel knows who holds which weapons and where they're stockpiled, especially given the widespread belief that the US plays a double game: selling arms to Arab states while sharing intelligence with Israel.

No sooner had the summit ended with nothing but condemnations and declarations than media interest disappeared. In contrast, Wednesday's “Together for Palestine” concert-the Gig for Gaza—at Wembley in Britain was a roaring success.

Speech after speech generated hope. Artist after artist expressed solidarity with Palestine. Echoing louder than the deafening silence of the sleeping Arab capitals was the cry: “Free, Free Palestine.”
