We (5 Israelis and two Palestinians) were roughed up by Israeli apartheid
soldiers then abducted while filming the destruction of the land of
Al-Walaja. In my case, the officer recognized me and came straight at me
pushing me to the ground, kicking me then asking his soldiers to take me
away. Shireen was taken later by the invading fascist soldiers in the
village. It hurts so much to see how slowly the old trees are being uprooted
to build a wall on village land that will separate the villagers from tehir
agricultural fields. In this case, trees and An agricultural road (built
with European funding) were being destroyed in the village. The oldest tree
in the Bethlehem district, an olive tree that is perhaps 3-4,000 year old is
also in the path of the apartheid wall. The Israeli soldiers working as
subcontractors for land thieves and racists also raided the freedom theater
in Jenin (founded by our friend and martyr Juliano Mer-Khamis) and abducted
some of the workers there. We ask everyone to write to politicians, media,
and others to alert them of these persistent violations of basic human
rights. We must intensify pressure via boycotts, divestments, and sanctions.

Request: Advise or give help for a 5 year old girl who had had a cochlear
implant (inner ear) in 2007 and is now having an infection. She needs either
a new implant or removal/rehabilitation of the old implant and she also
needs rehabilitation. Any thoughts or ideas about how to proceed in this
medical situation would be appreciated or if an institution or charity can
take on this case. (the family is from a remote village and they were
staying at my house for the past four days).
