For Immediate Release


The National Committee for the Rights of the Internally Displaced is organizing a series of protests in support of the right of return for Palestinian refugees and internally displaced and against American and Israeli attempts to impose their proposals for resettlement that aim to extinguish the Palestinian refugee issue. The internally displaced continue to demand implementation of the right of return and reject all resettlement proposals regardless of the sponsor. 

In accordance with the above, we call upon our people to participate in a protest demonstration organized for Wednesday, 26 July 2000 at 5:00 pm in front of the American Embassy in Tel-Aviv, and to also to participate in the demonstration organized in Nazareth (Al-Khanoq) on Friday, 28 July 2000, at 2:00 pm.
