SYDNEY People gathered on January 31 outside Israel's consulate to protest against the brutal occupation of Palestine. Since the beginning of the current intifada, 192 Palestinian children have been killed by Israeli troops and settlers, 6000 have been injured and more than 600 arrested. Protesters held a silent vigil and distributed flyers to passers-by. Another picket will take place on February 28.
