‘Refusing to Die in Silence’ - volunteers with cameras trying to protect Palestinians

worrg
Nabi Saleh - a new campaign was launched called ‘Refusing to Die in Silence’, which documents and confronts colonist “settler” attacks on unarmed citizens in the West Bank. The project aims to warn the colonists and make them feel pressured by the presence of media crews ready to document the attacks..... The group uses a coordinated system of cars and video cameras to monitor, respond to and intervene in settler attacks occurring this September across the West Bank. Speaking of the need for the group this September, Bil’in resident Mohammed Khatib of the Popular Struggle Coordination Committee noted on the committee’s website that "If anyone needed further proof that Palestinians cannot count on Israeli authorities to prevent settler violence, recent events show beyond doubt why we need to organize to defend ourselves. This is exactly what these volunteers will do in a civic and peaceful manner". http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/recent-news/43012-refusing-to-die-in-silen...

    • For some reason I don't think the owners of main stream media are going to put any of this on CNN, FOX et al.

    • Just as we cannot support the killing of Libyans or Jews, we cannot stand by and allow our money and resources to be used to kill people who are just trying to make a living in an occupied land. Violence and hate have never proven more than temporary solutions with nothing but bad feelings as a result and no one closer to a solution.
