Israel-Palestine, Another Media on: The construction of the WALL and the struggle that continues 20/09/04
Four anti-fence demonstrators and four soldiers were wounded Sunday following a confrontation between protesters and security forces south of Mt. Hebron. The IDF said demonstrators threw stones and bricks at the soldiers, lightly wounding four.
> Jonathan Pollak, of Anarchists Against the Wall said that "throughout the whole demonstration not one stone was thrown." Demonstrators were holding olive branches in their hands to symbolize the 1,000 trees lost during the fence's construction in the area of Beit Awwa, Sikka, Deir Aamut, said Pollak. Violence broke out when security forces tried to arrest the demonstrators. "They started kicking people and punching people," he said.
According to Pollak, some 250 Palestinians and 50 Israelis and international demonstrators headed in the direction of the construction near the settlement of Shekef around 10 a.m. "We managed to block the bulldozers for two hours or so," said Pollak. Additional security forces came "and it got pretty rough," he said. "One Palestinian demonstrator was beaten unconscious. They were stepping on his face and kicking his head. Another Israeli demonstrator got burn wounds from a stun grenade that was thrown at her. Two other Palestinians were lightly injured," said Pollak.
He said that the villages are losing some 1,200 dunams of land to the fence. Much of the arguments surrounding the fence have been reduced to the question of whether or not it is on the green line, said Pollak. He doesn't accept any wall, including on the green line. "We oppose the wall on any path," Pollak said. Construction of a wall in Gaza has turned it into one of the world's largest prisons. "We won't let that happen here," he said. "Not in our name," he added.

Palestine-Israel, Photographs, wall construction stopped at sikka/beit awwa 19/9/04
Today, the people of beit awwa were successful in stopping the construction of the wall on their lands. work was halted for about 2 hours and two were injured.
photoes credit AP and AFP https://israel.indymedia.org/newswire/display_any/697 The march left beit awwa 100 strong. Palestinians, internationals and israelis*.
men women and children. They were intercepted by IDF infantry which tried to stop the march at gun point. an officer informed indymedia that "this is for your protection i don't want you to be hurt by the heavy machinery" It must also have been out of concern that the soldiers used stun grenades and tear gas to try to stop the march.
Undeterred, the march continued to the work site near sikka where the crowed of demonstrators grew to about 200. When the demonstrators reached the work site, the worked stopped and did not resume for about 1 hour.
Confrontation with the army and border police() developed whenthey attempted to arrest people. In the end no arrests were made but several palestinians were injured. One injury was medium. An israeli women was also injured by the plastic casing of a stun grenade exploded near her.
After some of the demonstrators went back work resumed briefly but was topped again when demonstrators placed themselves in front of the bulldozers.
After about 45 minutes of blocking the bulldozers large forces of civilian police and riot police arrived at which point the demonstrators decided to retreat rather than risk more injury and arrests.
The lack of arrest and more serious injury leaves the demonstrators in a good position to intensify the resistance to the construction of the wall in the area.

Israel-Palestine, Nikmat Olalim tour + Slovanian\Italian info tour 10/09/04
Hey friends, please help spreading this msg. thanx. Me.
Antizionist Hardcorepunk storm over europe
Nikmat Olalim ("Toddler's Revenge") is the name of an extremist Jewish organization that set a pipe bomb in an elementary school in Zur Baher, a village in East Jerusalem. This subject doesn't receive much attention in the Israeli public, even though when there are terrorist attacks against Jews you would hear about them for weeks, and the intention is to show ourselves and the world that the Jews are the victims and we're under constant threat. Obviously, bringing up the existence of Jewish terrorism against Arabs damages this image. When this issue is being raised, the Jewish terrorists are presented as crazy extremists, outside the Israeli mainstream. Few make the connection between this illegal act, to the much worse actions carried out by the Israeli Army which are considered legal (at least according to Israeli law), and receive practically full support by the Israeli public. The organization Nikmat Olalim injured 10 schoolchildren and a teacher in Zur Baher. In the past three years, around 20 Palestinians were injured on daily average by the Israeli security forces, and more than 2 were killed every day.
Jewish terrorism is not some extremist or singular , terror is an inseparable part of Israeli society, and it is carried out daily. Nikmat olalim members are Israeli activists in Human\Animal liberation struggles.in groups like anarchists against walls, OneStruggle , GreenAction and more

Israel-Palestine, Tel-Aviv, The Anrchist Against The Wall get organized 07/09/04
About 30 people of the initiative gathered to improve the structure, communication and future activities of the initiative. Among other subjects was discussed the initiatives of the Cretian anarchists suggested for the 22 October.
See: http://www.ainfos.ca/04/sep/ainfos00050.html (en) Israel-Palestine: Appeal from Greek comrades for an international anarchist day of action (ca,it) Following is a greeting text The Federation of Anarchist Communists (FdCA) in Italy that was read in yesterday meeting. "Text for Anarchists Against The Wall - thanks! from FdCa"
Dear comrades,
The Federation of Anarchist Communists (FdCA) in Italy sends you its warmest greetings and best wishes for the success of your initiative.
The FdCA is a federation of militants and has been active since 1986 when it was formed from the union of several existing groups. Although we are a relatively small organization, our members share a solid theoretical base which is the continuation of the class-struggle anarchism which has existed in Italy since the 19th century, a tradition which we are happy to carry on. We are active in many struggles, for example anti-militarism, anti-sexism and, most importantly for our anti-capitalism, the labour movement.
We have closely followed the activities of the "Anarchists Against the Wall" initiative since its beginnings and are happy to note the success it has enjoyed in bringing practical anarchism to the public eye through its non-violent actions and close, non-authoritarian co-operation with the Palestinian inhabitants of the occupied areas.
As we believe the example you provide can be a valuable lesson to others (and not only anarchists), and as the importance of your struggle deserves the maximum exposure possible, we have dedicated a part of our federation's website to your activities (www.fdca.it/wall). Though you have been successful in obtaining a certain amount of public attention in your country through the media, the Apartheid Wall is still sadly ignored by large areas of the Western media, and we hope that, in Italy at least, our website on the Anarchists Against the Wall can help to focus more attention on the struggle.
We were also interested to note the initiative which has been made among you with this meeting to try to co-ordinate better your movement. We welcome any move towards greater anti-authoritarian organization of social forces and therefore we wish you luck in your work.
Long live anarchist communism!
In solidarity,
Nestor McNab
