Join the Struggle for Freedom
By International Solidarity Movement
March 08, 2002

Once again Internationals will be joining Palestinians in two weeks of direct nonviolent actions challenging the Israeli occupation.

Our last campaign, December 15 - January 1 stopped tanks, removed roadblocks and even suspended the operation of one checkpoint, all by nonviolent means.

Concerned people from around the world committed to justice are being asked to bring their energy, commitment, hope and action to support the Palestinian struggle for freedom. While world leaders are busy widening the gap between the west and the Arab world. We, concerned civilians, of diverse nationalities will stand together for justice.

Experience has shown that when international demonstrators join Palestinians in defying the occupation the Israeli military has difficulty using its regular tactic of shooting live ammunition into crowds.

The program of actions for April will be finalized nearer the time as the situation in Palestine changes so rapidly, but it will be based primarily in two locations:

The Salfit District .Where Activities will include a house rebuilding of one of the homes demolished during the recent invasion and massacre that took place in the village of Salfit, and removing roadblocks from essential access roads.

The Bethlehem and Jerusalem regions where we will March non-violently through checkpoints protesting the ongoing denial of freedom of movement and worship for Palestinian by denying them acssess to jerusalem.

All of these actions are being planned by the core organizing committee of the International Solidarity Movement, A Palestinian-led coalition of Palestinians and internationals. We will gather in Bethlehem for registration and orientation on the 29th of March.

If you are interested in joining the International Solidarity Movement, please send us an email confirming your interest. We will then send you a registration form and keep you informed of our plans and arrangements.
