Around one hundred thousand people have gathered in the city of Sakhnin in order to protest the "Israeli" occupation offensive against the Gaza Strip in the biggest demonstration organized by the Arab sector in recent years.
Crowds brandishing Palestinian flags and placards marched through the city centre chanting "Gaza will not surrender to the tanks and bulldozers!" and "Don't fear, Gaza, we are with you!" Some protesters in Sakhnin called Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak a "coward" and accused him of "collaborating with the Americans."
Thousands of police were deployed in Sakhnin and across northern "Israel" on Saturday following a number of violent protests against the Gaza operation.
Balad Chairman Jamal Zahalka said an international court must try "("Israeli" Prime Minister Ehud) Olmert, (Foreign Minister Tzipi) Livni, (War Minister Ehud) Barak and Ashkenazi, who are responsible for this crime."
Hadash Chairman Mohamad Barakeh arrived at the Sakhnin rally and said that "this demonstration is another important step we take pride in as part of the protest over the ongoing massacre against the Palestinian people in Gaza."
He added that "the demonstration is an answer to those betting on the Arab population's motivation to voice its steadfast opinion against the mentality of occupation and racism."
