bilin village palestine- emadbornat@yahoo.com

Friday, July 20th, 2007
(reported by Emad Bornat to MA Grady Flores)

Today a total of 300 people marched in the village of Bilin, Palestine, to the gate at the apartheid fence. Sixty percent of the land has been expropriated from the village. The villagers were accompanied by 100 Israelis and Internationals. There was a tremendous amount of tear gas used to prevent the non-violent march from reaching the gate, resulting in many injured from the gas. One of the Israeli photo journalists, Ysrael Potterman who has filmed the weekly demonstrations for the last 28 months was hit with a gas canister exploding in his face, resulting in hospitalization. Exposure to the gas can and has caused permanent lung damage. No one was arrested during the demonstration. Through his video taping, Ysrael has helped the people of Bil'in bring their story to the world.

A nice document of Israeli terror tactics. Bullying a bunch of unarmed people, on their own land. Textbook terrorism.
