UshGhrab.m4v

Ush Ghrab is a part of the land of Beit Sahour that was used by Jordanian and Israeli armies in the past, but is now being developed for the benefit of all the people of Beit Sahour. The part that is being slated for a hospital has been the target of colonial settler interest. On October 16, 2008 over 300 settlers swarmed the area protected by over 100 soldiers and police. Town people and international friends were at the site with normal activities inclusing bird watching, hiking, and music. The Settler police and soldiers attacked us and kidnapped 6 people (2 Palestinians and 4 internationals).

They were forced to release all because the Israeli government version clearly did not match the dopcuments. The last one they released was one who had a good still camera. Those pictures are graphic. They will be posted. And as noted above Israeli soldiers and colonial settlers are illegally present per international law (4th Geneva Convention)

Amazing how once the alleged 'action' takes place there aren't the images to back up the subtitled descriptions. Gee, go figure.

What is "illegal" [as well as immoral] is the Occupation.

What is needed is to wake up USA taxpayers who provide $7 MILLION PLUS EVERY DAY that goes to support it.
