Jeff Halper reports from the West Bank. He is accompanied by Atta Jaber, a Palestinian farmer and activist with whom ICAHD has been working since his house was first demolished in 1998. A transcript of the video will be available shortly.
Come and see Atta and his family during the study tour in May. ICAHD recommended issue-based Extended Study Tours to Palestine/Israel will resume in May. Palestinians and critical Israeli Jews are calling for internationals of courage and conviction to be with them in solidarity at this dark time in history.
“Your visits are a tangible expression of your commitment to stand with us, and it brings a sense of unity and support that is immeasurably valuable in these times,” so said Dima from PCC in Jerusalem, one of the hosts for the extended study tour in May.
We know of several delegations that have been to the West Bank during February and we have news about other organisations that have scheduled visits this spring. We have a long history of going to Palestine even when there is some risk because this is all part what happens during struggles for justice.
