Palestine-Israel, The joint struggle continue on the back ground of an immanent crash of "negotiations".

The political negotiations intended to prevent the involvement of international forums by the Palestinian ruling elite do not stop the joint struggle of popular movement which invigorate the B.D.S. efforts and the local non armed struggle. The increased suppression of the struggling communities and the transfer efforts in a choice location do not extinguish the flames of struggle and the persistent of the "Tsumud". Night raids in Ni'ilin, Bil'in, Nabi Saleh, and Qaddum, and arrests increase. The threats of dispersing the Friday demos with live ammunition towards the stone throwing Shabab is expressed from time to time by shots at youth legs. In Bil'in, the members of the Israeli anarcho-communist organization start to fill the gap resulted from the diminishing participation of the anarchists against the wall initiative. Our black and redNblack flags are accepted in a friendly mode.

Ahdut (Unity) blog: http://unityispa.wordpress.com/

Palestine-Israel, The more Israel is threatened by the B.D.S. the more viscous is the treatment of the Palestinians*

The emergence of the B.D.S. finds its expressions in both the Israeli media, the ruling elite, and the medium level of the capitalists. The harassment of the Ni'ilin, Nabi Saleh, and Qaddum is not applied to Bil'in which is in the focus of international attention. It seems the state forces got specific orders to be much more "lenient" even with the stones throwing Shabab. Lot of the Israeli activists lost their persistence as the development on the ground is not expanding and the advance of the B.D.S. is too abstract for them. For many Israeli and the Palestinian activists the big picture is not clear enough and they do not feel that we are winning. They do not really feel the satisfaction from the fact that our joint struggle is the important leaning point the lever of the B.D.S. need for its success.


Bil'in

This Friday we had anew experience of the weekly demo. About 10 Israelis with the anarchists against the wall, with flags of the anarchist-communist Ahdut, joined about dozens of Bil'iners in the march from the Abu Lamun grove to the gate in the separation wall. When we arrived there - yet without harassment, we started to march along the wall. the state forces started at firs a symbolic throwing of tear gas grenades which resulted in the shabab getting into action. Gradually the state force escalated, but due to strong southern wind they failed to drive us away. After nearly an hour in which they tasted their own tear gas - some returned to them by the wind and some by the shabab, they came with an armored car to distribute the teargas defectively and we gradually retreated to the village..

"2 ISRAELI activists were detained for few hours in police station when check point stopped them.
The army try to show UN who visit us on FRIDAY that they didn’t use violence and only Palestinian throw stones by talking with loudspeaker by one of the officers . But the Israeli army when they feel that the UN leave the village began gathering themselves and jeeps and bulldozer shooting tear gas canisters direct by guns and by the machine on the jeep. Many suffocated cases between us but no injured or arrested people.
The Israeli army used tear gas canisters and sound bombs during their suppression of K Q march which began at 12:15 after praying. Hundreds of people participate the march beside friends from ISM and friends from Israeli activists"

The efforts of the settlers and the IDF to expel the residents of Palestinian Susya continue.

On 11th February, 2014, settlers, probably coming from the settlement Susya, uprooted about 100 olive saplings belonging to Palestinian Susya, in Wadi Sweid. A few days later settlers uprooted the remaining saplings on that land. On 15th February, 2014, Palestinian Susya residents and volunteers planted 120 olive saplings in the area of Ar-Rujum at Susya. All the trees were then uprooted by IDF soldiers.

On Wednesday, 26th February, 2014, government representatives accompanied by police came to demolish Bedouins’ homes in the Negev. In Tel Sheva they demolished a home. In Umm Batin near Omer they demolished a home. In Kuhla, some 10 km west of Arad, they demolished another home. The next day they went on to demolish another home, in Umm Namila, north of Rahat.

Palestine-Israel, The immanent crash of belligerent Zionism push the elite to desparate acceleration*

The acceleration of the B.D.S. and international pressure to yield a bit cause a near panic in the more ideological Zionist elite. Their response is the acceleration of suppression of the Palestinians and efforts to transfer them from key areas the die hards dream of holding for ever. The Israeli state force back the irregular settlers and initiate lot of action itself. The harassment of the Ni'ilin, Nabi Saleh, and Qaddum who are not in the focus of international media is more vicious than ever. Bil'in, that earned international fame and attention of media got partial immunity. The chanting of the demonstrators expressed the real opinion on the two states pseudo solution: "free free Palestine from the river to the sea". The "no state redNblack flags" which the anarchist-communist Ahdut members hold high in Bil'in demos are accepted without any reservation.

Palestine-Israel, The smell of the nearing victory the joint struggle contribute to so much to.

The Israeli media is nearly obsessed with the escalation of the B.D.S. as if they know things they do not disclose. Both supporters and rejectors of the end of the occupation start to regard it as immanent and not in the far future. A section of the Israeli capitalist elite which is suffering from the boycott and fear its escalation start to organize to accelerate the end of occupation. 100 of them traveled for the Dabus conference and official organization was established. On the ground, it seems that the efforts of the Israeli state forces escalate their repression of on going struggles and make more efforts to transfer villagers from strategic locations. Bil'in will celebrate the ninth anniversary of the ongoing struggle on the 28th of February.

We as people of KAFR QUDOOM believe in our right to use our road free and also believe in such kind of struggle not only to open our road but to end occupation.

South Hebron hills

Harassment of Palestinian farmers and shepherds in South Hebron hills by both settlers and the army continues. These forces take over their lands and prevent them from accessing it. This coming Saturday, February 22st, we will be heading again to our activity in several locations in the area, accompany Palestinian farmers and shepherds to their lands and help them stand up for their rights. Without the presence of activists, many farmers don't get the chance to cultivate their land. There is a direct link between the number of activists who come to accompany the farmers and their ability to live a relatively normal life.


Hebron

"Hebron marked today the 20th anniversary to the Baruch Goldstein massacre in the Ibrahimi mosque. At dawn of 25 February, 1994, Baruch Goldstein, a settler and a physician, opened fire on hundreds of Muslim worshipers at the mosque, killing 29 of them. In Hebron/Khalil, there will be a protest today to open Shuhada Street. The street which was the market street, and the social center of the city, is closed to Palestinian movement since the Goldstein massacre in 1994, including to its own residents who are obliged to climb to their roofs, and exit their homes through adjacent streets. The protest to open Shuhada street are amongst the hardest demonstrations that I had experienced. The army violently disperses the protestors, and the sound of shooting echoes loudly between the houses. But no less difficult than the tear gas, stun grenades and bullets, is the sight of a checkpoint in the middle of the street, in the middle of everything, the utmost meaning of the word occupation."
Friday- February 21, 2014 About two thousand protested in Hebron today, activists from various political parties and organizations,international activists, and Israeli ones (including anarchists) came together in defiance of this continuous closure and restriction of the mobility of Palestinians in their city, calling to open Shuhada street.
The IOF responded with barrages of tear gas, rubber-coated steel bullets and stun grenades deployed against demonstrators in an attempt to disperse them. Several injuries reported. One demonstrator was taken to hospital after sustaining a head injury. Five people were arrested today (Friday) afternoon, and more than 13 were injured during the annual Open Shuhada Street protest organized by Youth Against Settlements in Hebron in memorial of 20 years since the Ibrahimi Mosque massacre.

Palestine-Israel, Just another week of joint actions against the occupation and transfer*

The struggle at Ein Hiljeh continued till Thursday night. The Israeli state forces harassed the activists along the week but due of the mounting world pressure refrained from arresting the activists even during the eviction only detained for short time few of them. Instead, they hit and injured dozens of them. The mounting effects of the B.D.S. start to panic the Israeli elite and significant part it start to pressure the government to yield to the imperial demands. The Israeli media is contemplating on it daily. The ongoing grass roots struggle continue though not invigorate yet. The struggle against the crawling transfer - mainly in the Jordan valley, the south of Hebron hills and Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem continue. The anarchist communist organization Ahdut increase its involvement in the joint struggle against the occupation with the Bil'in grass root popular activists.

Bil'in

Surprises in Bil'in never end. Half an hour at the gate and a march along the wall to the Abu Lemon grove and no tear gas grenades or shock ones thrown on us. 17 Israelis + twenty internationals and dozens of Bil'iners, complained about the missing weekly dose of tear gas to which we are addicted. Only after repeated requests by using stones when we almost given up, we got a dose of the tear gas accompanying by the usual end of the demonstration barrage of it. Six members of Ahdut waved proudly black flags and redNblack ones.

Palestine-Israel, The joint struggle continue with self assurance and without illusions

At the beginning, the joint struggle was focused on specific routes of the separation fence. There were some achievements and many villages dropped from the regular struggle. The hope for a wide spread popular struggle was not fulfilled, but additional struggles were initiated and the struggles networked with sporadic joint actions. Lately the network of joint popular struggles started regular actions - the Ein Hijleh is the second one. The continued struggle draw the international attention and give essential base to the B.D.S. The persistent struggle saw seeds in the subterranean ferment that may sprout without a warning in the appropriate conditions. The persistence and the approaching avalanche of the B.D.S. energize the more far sighted activists. The joint struggle in Bil'in, Ni'ilin, Ma'asara, Nebi Saleh, Shikh Jarrah, Quaddum, and South of Hebron Hills keep going and hold the flag of struggle high.

EinHijleh‬

"The Palestinian coordination of the popular struggles Launch “Melh Al-Ard” Campaign by Reviving Ein Hijleh Village in the Jordan Valley"

Hundreds of Palestinians announced today the launching of “Melh Al-Ard” (Salt of the Earth) campaign by reviving the village of Ein Hijleh in the Jordan Valley on land belonging to the Orthodox Church and St. Gerassimos monastery. The campaign is launched in refusal of Israeli policies aimed at Judaizing and annexing the Jordan Valley.

Campaign organizers and participants declared:

We, the daughters and sons of Palestine, announce today the revival of Ein Hijleh village as part of Melh Al-Ard campaign in the Jordan Valley. The action aims at refusing the political status quo, especially given futile negotiations destroying the rights of our people for liberation and claim to their land.

Accordingly we have decided to revive an old Palestinian Canaanite village in the Jordan Valley next to so called “Route 90” linking the Dead Sea to Bisan. The action is part of a continuous step against the Israeli occupation’s plan to take over and annex the Jordan Valley. This step is a popular act against Israeli oppression of the Palestinian people and the constant Judaization of the land.

From the village of Ein Hijleh, we the participants announce that we hold tight to our right to all occupied Palestinian lands. We refuse Kerry’s Plan that will establish a disfigured Palestinian state and recognizes the Israeli entity as a Jewish State. Such a state will turn Palestinians living inside lands occupied in 1948 into residents and visitors that can be deported at anytime. We affirm the unity of our people and their struggle wherever they are for our inalienable rights.....

... Based on our support of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement (BDS) we call upon our friends and international solidarity groups to stand with the demands of the Palestinian people and boycott all Israeli companies including Israeli factories and companies that work in the Jordan Valley and profit from Palestinian natural resources...”

Over 300 Palestinians participate in the action which started Friday in parallel to the regular joint struggles. More than 100 Palestinian activists manage to cross a flying Israeli Army Checkpoint on their way to Ein Hijleh

"Israeli occupation forces are now surrounding Ein Hijlah village and shoot sporadic fire around to terrorize the activists...The Israeli occupation forces are getting ready to storm the village and evict the the activists... but due to international attention restricted to sporadic harassments like confiscated the water brought to our village by the medical relief team so we decided to go and reclaim it back from the soldiers and we succeeded. Afterwards we had a little protest on the main road to send out a message that no one confiscates what is ours!"

Monday morning BREAKING: The army is raiding the village in these moments. 4 jeeps of Israeli Forces and 10 soldiers are raiding the village, trying to enter Ein Hijleh, pushing the youths and looking for confrontation. It seems they are counting how many people are in the village.
Photos of the Israeli forces raiding the village as we try to figure out why they are raiding and our attempt to stop them, we finally managed to kick them out!

Qaddoum

Today at the weekly Kufr Qaddoum Demonstrations Against Settlement, https://www.facebook.com/pages/Kufr-Qaddoum-Demonstrations-Against-Settlement/381334978581576 The Israeli military treated the protesters with silk gloves, let them advance further (inside the village) than usual, and fired relatively symbolic amounts of tear gas canisters (directly at our faces).
Why?? because of the (coordinated) presence of a UN observer.
Of course, the shabab still stoned the invading force of complacent armored soldiers.

One of the officers took the effort to talk/lecture the crowed. Here's some of his gems:
"Thank you for not throwing the rock"
"you don't come forward and we go back now..."
"Maybe we can work this out"
"Thank you for stop throwing stones, that is very mature of you"

Wanna know what every other demo (and most every other day) in Kufr Qaddum looks like? See, for instance, some of Odai Qaddomi photography's videos here:

Sheikh Jarrah

The residents of Sheikh Jarrah are continuing their protest vigils in the neighborhood every Friday, protesting their violent evictions from their homes, the taking over of the neighborhood by the settlers, and the Judaization of East Jerusalem.

South of Hebron Hills

Harassment of Palestinian farmers and shepherds in South Hebron hills by both settlers and the army continues. These forces take over their lands and prevent them from accessing it. This Saturday, February 1st, we will be heading again to our activity in several locations in the area, accompany Palestinian farmers and shepherds to their lands and help them stand up for their rights.
Without the presence of activists, many farmers don't get the chance to cultivate their land. There is a direct link between the number of activists who come to accompany the farmers and their ability to live a relatively normal life.

Ahdut (Unity) blog: http://unityispa.wordpress.com/

Palestine-Israel, the future is knocking on the door of the joint struggle.

The Israeli media is ongoing reporting on the Israeli elite of the boycott on Israel that not only became significant economically and politically but also just two steps from avalanche. Lot of activists who do not understand that the battle will not be resolved here but in the international area lost heart as the immediate gains are small. They do not understand that the local struggle is the Archimedes point the lever of the B.D.S. is leaning on. So, the joint struggle continue. The international activists who come here carry the struggle in their countries when they return home. Whether understanding the importance of the joint struggle or not, hundred Israelis, and hundreds of Palestinians are every weekend in Bil'in, Ni'ilin, Ma'asara, Nebi Saleh, Qaddum, Sheikh Jarrakh, South of Hebron Hills, and sporadicly in other locations too.


Bil'in

Ten Israelis, dozen internationals and two dozen Palestinians demonstrated this Friday in Bil'in. When we reached the gate in the wall, Israeli state forces threatened us but did nothing. After a while we started to go to the south, along the wall, and the state forces started to shoot tear gas on the shabab located in the Abu Lamun Oaks wood,, and shoot in the ankle one of them with live ammunition. When the intensity of the tear gas was overwhelming we started to return to the village.

Israeli TV channel two reports on the expanding BDS campaign. The report is very self victimizing, and very lacking in self awareness. It questions the world for boycotting Israeli, not Israel for occupying Palestine. In fact it seems like the reporter thinks that Israel is doing nothing wrong, and just by chance finds itself as the international scapegoat.
