Palm Sunday protest in Bethlehem 28.03.2010

Around 200 Palestinians, Israelis and internationals walk from the Nativity Square to the direction of Jerusalem, against the restrictions imposed by the Israelis especially restrictions on the right to worship and freedom of movement as many Christians will not be able to go to Jerusalem to celebrate Easter in Jerusalem. The crowd managed to outnumber and surprise the Israeli soldiers and security forces at Bethlehem checkpoint and managed to walk through. After having walked 300 meters on the road to Jerusalem, they were stopped by Israeli soldiers. After having declared the march over and as they were walking back to Bethlehem, Israeli soldiers attacked the crowd and violently arrested around 15 persons, among them a Palestinian cameran, an Israeli photographers, members of the popular committee from Al Ma'sara, and staff from Holy Trust.

great video showing zionist israel attacking peaceful people who just want to make the symbolic march on Palm sunday. It's christmas season and the whole world must stand by Palestine, the birth place of Jesus (pbuh) who like Moses (pbuh) & Mohammed (pbuh) has come to save the whole world.

Thank you for a heroic act of peaceful resistance. I wish I was there with you.

JudeoNAZISM is alive and well, in the stolen and ethnically cleansed land of Palestine. Hitler would be very proud for raising such a cruel parasitic maggots as the JudeoNAZIS of iZraHELL.
