I was released--Mazin Qumsiyeh

I was finally released. Israeli soldiers abducted me while filming an
attack on villagers of Al-Walaja. The attack started with dynamiting their
village lands near their houses, a process that already shook and cracked
houses and injured some residents before (see
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCDNg_ScDtU).

The villagers were speaking with soldiers demanding paperwork and telling them that court cases are pending and to stop blowing up their lands. Instead the soldiers arrogantly
pushed and shoved and as they tried to arrest one young man, a group of
Israeli soldiers and native Palestinians fell off the side of the bulldozed
area of the route of the apartheid wall. Outside of camera views, Mustafa
was beaten repeatedly in the car (I was hit twice) by a mean young Israeli
soldiers who said he hated Arabs. The video we have of our abduction is at

UNESCO, people of the world and other governments should step up to the
plate and donate to this institution. You can do so here:
