Since our
event, Dr Ang Swee Chai has made available a draft of the third reprint of her
book From Beirut to Jerusalem. It is her tribute to the Palestinian people,
and should be read as widely as possible, so we've made it available to
download here for free (right click on the link and choose Save Target As). However, perhaps after reading this book,
please consider making a donation to MAP or any other charity working for
Palestinians.

Due to
difficulties with the sound and the quality of the images recorded from across
the Council Chamber, this recording of the presentation about the Sabra and Shatila massacre in
1982 was mostly recorded at the London Hospital on 16 February 2015, but is
exactly the same presentation that was given at Lewisham
Town Hall on 4 December 2014.
