DEC Appeal

For some unknown reason, the BBC is refusing to broadcast The DEC Appeal For Gaza. So it falls to the blogosphere to get the news out. Please consider donating to the cause, and pass on the URL to others.

[Follow-up] The BBC has explained its decision here, mentioning that it has been a UK-wide media blackout and that it "wanted to avoid compromising public confidence in its impartiality". Given that the BBC were not exactly impartial over the Darfur appeal, it makes you wonder just whom they're trying to appear impartial to? Certainly not the UK....
