March 30th marks the Palestinian annual “Land Day”. This year protests
were organized under the banner of a “Global March to Jerusalemâ€, to
mark the point that millions of Palestinians are prevented from reaching
the holy city from Arab countries, Gaza, and the West Bank. In solidarity,
tens of thousands protested in Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, and in the
occupied Palestinian Territories. The Real News’ Lia Tarachansky reports
from East Jerusalem where Israeli forces met protesters with policemen
on horses. At least one demonstrator died in Gaza and dozens were
injured in the various demonstrations.
