It was a very successful event and there wee lots of media presence. Dozens of other peaceful demonstrations today were faced by violent Israeli repression (e.g. metal bullets used in Beit Ummar).   But we Palestinians could do a lot more especially if those getting salaries from the Palestinian authority (money that belongs to the Palestinian people) would join directly in the resistance. Many of them merely talk about it or about past resistance even as hords of racist settlers march on Jerusalem with T-shirts showing destruction of the Dome of the Rock.  But we see growth in the resistance in dozens of villages and truly inspiring acts of resistance.

Join us Sunday 12 May 2013 in Beit Sahour at 10 AM for a peaceful march to Ush Ghrab
