First of all, we would like to offer sincere thanks to those who
attended the recent Witness in Palestine event featuring two
speakers on the situation of the human rights struggle in the
Palestinian Occupied Territories, which turned out to be a very
meaningful event. A report is here:

As a first action toward supporting this movement, we would
like to draw your attention toward two message campaigns that
are presently underway by the Palestine Forum Japan and the
Pacific Asia Resource Center to protest the building of a MUJI
home goods store branch in Israel–which would be the first Japanese
retail company to do so. (We would like to emphasize that this
action is not about protesting the Israeli or Jewish people; but rather
about helping to end the illegal and immoral Israeli occupation of
Palestine–a goal that is also supported by many Israeli and Jewish
peace activists.) We ask for your support and participation!
