Gush Shalom, 22.10.2018

The week that was:

Israel rights group chief slams occupation at UN
Invited to speak at the UN plenary,  B'Tselem chief Hagai El-Ad 
slammed Israel's violations against the Palestinians in the occupied 
West Bank and the Gaza Strip. In response,  Israel’s Ambassador to the 
United Nations, Danny Danon accused El-Ad of being “a wretched 
collaborator”.
(The article includes El-Ad's videotaped speech)

In Khan al-Ahmar, I found renewed hope for resisting the occupation
Over the last four months I have spent most of my time in Khan 
al-Ahmar, watching young Palestinians resist, day after day, the 
Israeli authorities’ attempts to demolish the village. On Saturday 
night, their struggle finally bore fruit.
