Palestine-Israel, The joint struggle continue with fresh convincing

With the convincing that our main contribution is not so much as in changes on the ground but in the spirit of the struggle of the participants and the leaning point we supply to the international lever. The gradual increase in the international pressure which the Israeli high court verdict is that is a criminal act for Israeli to promote causing already much of damages in the economy of occupation and concern of the Zionist-colonialist Israeli ruling Elite. We see here again how small number of activists can initiate a turn in the course of history when it is applied in the ripe cross-road. It started in a small joint camp in Masha 2003 for struggle against the separation fence, after the idea raised half a year earlier in the European People Global Action conference in Leiden - in which activists from the East of the Mediterranean region participated too. The camp initiated struggles in various villages that riped at 2005 in the Bil'in struggle... which expanded and expanded...

Bil'in

The Friday demo of 10-4-15 - the most belligerent harassment of a Friday demonstration for years. An hour before the demo the Israeli state forces invaded the village and arrested one villager and confiscated a scouter. When we started the demo the state forces showered us with teat gas and invaded the village for a while for confrontation before they retreated to the old route of the separation fence. After a long while with low intensity of confrontation they went away and we dispersed. Surprisingly, no one was injured or arrested during the demonstration.

17-4-15 Bil'in today, dozen Israelis, dozens of internationals, and Palestinian activists of the west bank, joined more than 100 Bil'iners in the Friday demonstration against the separation wall and occupation, in the memory of Baasem Abu Rahme assassinated six years ago in the Friday demo in Bil'in and in solidarity with the Palestinian prisoners.
The Israeli state forces "allowed" us to march to a place near the gate in the wall, but when we arrived there they started to shower us with tear gas.
As the northern wind enabled the more stubborn demonstrators to remain in the lands, they restored to shooting of bullets rubbed with rubber and even live ammunition.
A sniper hit seriously one of the activist - Anas Mohamed Mansur age 17 who was taken to hospital.

Palestine-Israel, The collapse of the deterrent ability of Israel in the last Gaza war is expressed every where.


The frustrated Israeli state force who do not dare to prevent the weekly non armed popular demonstrations - Joined and purely of Palestinians, resort to shooting on demonstrators with frequent use of live fire by snippers. In the annexed regions of Jerusalem they no more pretend it is not an occupied area and apply there the occupation procedures - both in treatment of detaining children and houses demolition. The "hot" areas of the popular non armed struggle gradually expand but still far away from a general uprising. The international popular struggle worry the Israeli elite but the damages to the Israeli economy is still in the margins. It seems the Zionist settler colonialist elite which bribed the tycoons section of the capitalist elite with extreme neo liberal measures cannot do it any more as other sections of the capitalist elite (backers of Cakhlon) rebelled.

Bil'in

"A Palestinian youth and an international activist were injured in the demo.by Israeli occupation forces. The Palestinian youth was wounded after being shot in the leg several times with rubber bullets. The foreigner was injured after being shot in the neck with a tear gas canister at extremely close range, less than two meters. The Israeli occupation forces attempted to trick demonstrators by hiding in between the trees, from which they fired shots at them and tried to arrest the Palestinians demonstrators who regularly participate in the weekly demonstration against the illegal Israeli occupation in the village of Bil’in. Despite their attempts and their close distance, the Israeli army failed to arrest any of the protestors."

Among the hundreds who attended the march were delegates from several local popular committees such as Ni’lin Bil’in, Kufr Qaddum and Hebron based Youth against Settlements.

Friday 3.4.2015 A local photographer was shot with rubber coated steel bullet at his leg after he was promised by the IOF soldiers that he will not get shot. The soldiers called him continuously to get closer while ensuring repeatedly that no one will shot him. they didn't kept their promise.

later on when it seems that the demonstration came to its end a sixteen years old got shot in his head with a rubber coated steel bullet. He was collecting the aluminum empty shells (gas canisters) to recycle. He was at the time 50 meters away from the apartheid wall. He was then rushed to Ramallah hospital immediately.

Refusnics

Demo at the recruiting camp entrance 6-4-15 12:00
Efi Dreyshner, member of the "Unity" ("Ahdut") Anarcho-communist organization, is now a prisoner in the Zionist military prison because he opposes the occupation and does not wish to serve in the state's armed forces. The regime who jailed him does not understand that Effi is an anarchist-communist and that a wider agenda and ethical morality stand behind his refusal!
