“If one meets a powerful person ask them five questions:
"What power have you got?
Where did you get it from?
In whose interests do you exercise it?
To whom are you accountable?
And how can we get rid of you?’
If you cannot get rid of the people who govern you, you do not live in a democratic system” – Tony Benn

Lebanon is being destroyed. A country with a rich culture and beautiful ancient architecture.
1.1 million people (including 390,000 children) forced out of their homes by relentless bombardment. Towns and villages flattened. Infrastructures destroyed. Innocent civilians killed. There is absolutely no justification for this bombardment atrocity. It’s creating a humanitarian disaster.
