Night time demonstration outside the BBC in protest of the bombing of Palestine / Gaza by Israel

Night time demonstration outside the BBC in protest of the bombing of Palestine. We live in hope that the fighting will stop and a peace deal will be worked out. This from the BBC: Israel has agreed "on the principles" of a Franco-Egyptian truce proposal, raising hopes of an end to its conflict with Palestinian militants in Gaza."The challenge now is to get the details to match the principles," Israeli spokesman Mark Regev said while Hamas detected "positive signs".Israel has resumed its bombardment of Gaza in a 12-day offensive which is said to have claimed nearly 700 lives.The UN Security Council seems deadlocked over the crisis.Arab countries want the Council to vote on a resolution calling for a ceasefire while Britain, France and the US are pushing for a weaker statement welcoming the Franco-Egyptian initiative.The US could well veto any vote as it is a permanent member of the Security Council, the BBC's Laura Trevelyan reports.US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said the US supported the Franco-Egyptian initiative and that she had spoken to Arab ministers and the Israelis about moving forward on it.She added that the US did not want a ceasefire that would return Israel and the Palestinians to the "status quo" preceding the conflict.Palestinian health officials say at least 683 Palestinians have been killed and more than 3,085 injured since Israel began its offensive 12 days ago, according to the UN's humanitarian agency.SmugglingIsrael and Hamas have been under pressure to accept a diplomatic solution to the conflict, which began on 27 December.Israel wants to stop rocket attacks on southern Israel and to stop Hamas smuggling weapons into Gaza via Egypt, while Hamas says any ceasefire deal must include an end to Israel's blockade of Gaza.GAZA CRISIS BACKGROUNDSmoke rises over Gaza (06/01/2009)Profile: Gaza StripWho are Hamas?In pictures: Tunnel smugglersMiddle East conflict: History in mapsIsrael said it was not sure how long the diplomatic process would take and that a working arms embargo on Hamas was needed.BBC world affairs correspondent Paul Reynolds says Israel has always said that it will accept an outcome under which rockets and smuggling are stopped - but there is a potentially long gap between accepting principles and applying practice.Security sources have confirmed senior Israeli defence official Amos Gilad will travel to Cairo on Thursday to discuss ceasefire options.Rice: The US supports the Franco-Egyptian initiativePalestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas is expected in Cairo a day later for talks.In a statement on Wednesday, France's President Nicolas Sarkozy welcomed "the acceptance by Israel and the Palestinian Authority" of the Franco-Egyptian ceasefire plan.
