Christian Peacemaker Teams in At-Tuwani, Palestine

This video describes my work with Christian Peacemaker Teams in the village of At-Tuwani, Palestine.

At-Tuwani is a small Palestinian village, located in the South of the West Bank, next to an Israeli settlement. Israeli settlers have harassed and attacked villagers, including children on their way to school.

@KennyVaughan hamas cannot inherently commit an anti-semetic act, since the palistinian people themselves are "semetic." I've been to israel and have seen the lies of israel. Anti-semetic is atleast as anti-semetic as the "ashkenazie," jews are, since they are not really jews, just lost people with shiney things.

You do realize Hamas literally made a genocidal antisemtic charter right?

In Genesis 12:3, God said to Abraham, "I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you, and in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed."

Nobody says Israel has to offer citizenship to the Palestinians. Israel has two choices: relinquish the land, or accept the inhabitants as citizens. Many of us think that given the history, the first option makes the most sense, but only those two options will lead to a just and potentially lasting settlement.

Nonsense.

And the Arab world keep the condition of these Arabs, Palestinians, in the manner it is because their ultimate goal is to destroy the Jewish State. Indeed after the 1967, Israel afforded these Arabs equal right except political participation because they are Jordanian citizens or in the case of Gaza they are Egyptian citizens. but these Arabs, Palestinian, again resorted to terrorism.

The land of their birth is not Judea and Samaria but the Arabian Peninsula.

Every decent human being deserve equal rights. These Palestinian were Jordanian citizens prior to 1967 and remain so. After the 1967 war, Israel wanted to give away Judea and Samaria to Jordan , but King Husssien refused. Judea and Samaria was allocated to the Jews after WWII. The sad thing is that many of the Arabs there resort to terroristism whose goal is to destroy Israel. Why should Israel afford them citizenship if the Arab world does not? Israel is a nation state..

Your reading of history doesn't matter. Individuals have the right to full political participation in the land of their birth, period.
