| Calling British MPs to save Palestinian village school | | Jahalin Solidarity -
"On April 25, the Israeli High Court will hear the final appeal of
the Palestinian Bedouin community of Al Khan al Ahmar. If the appeal
is rejected, the school will be demolished, followed by the
demolition of the rest of the village. Pressure by the British
government on Israel has often been known to help prevent – or at
least defer – forced displacement of Palestinians. The Jahalin are
now asking British citizens to help by urging their MPs to demand
immediate action by the UK Government. Act now through Do-Gooder:"

| Young Jewish Resistance in America Hails Portman’s Stance as Turning Point on Israel | | Dina Kraft - Ha`aretz - “It certainly feels like a new moment, for
such a prominent and proud Israeli to take the stance she is
taking,” says Andrew Goldbatt of the Oscar-winning actress Natalie
Portman. "The mantle of legitimacy she lends will embolden young
American Jews – specifically fellow progressive Zionists like
himself – to feel more comfortable speaking out against Israeli
policies that they too find objectionable.It will also enable them
to say, as Portman did in her statement, that you can be critical of
the leadership in Israel without wanting to boycott the country. The
key is that she cited her `Jewish values` as the basis for her
objections to Netanyahu`s policies." [ak]

| Bereaved Israelis and Palestinians Join in Shared Grief at Alternative Memorial Day Event | | Dina Kraft - Haaretz - More than 5,000 people arrived for the event at Yarkon Park. High Court overruled defense minister who tried to block attendance of bereaved Palestinians. “I think it’s the only event that happens on Memorial Day that actually brings hope," says Robi Damelin, an activist for Parents Circle-Families Forum. Parents Circle is co-sponsoring The Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day ceremony, now in its 13th year, together with Combatants for Peace, composed of former Israeli soldiers and Palestinian militants. During the ceremony, bereaved families from both sides share stories of personal pain. [David Grossman, who lost his soldier son, was among them. The well-known writer announced that he donates the money he will get later this week as laureate of the Israel Prize to the Bereaved Families Forum and Elifelet, which provides kindergartens for children of African asylum seekers in the slums of South Tel Aviv.-bz] | 17/4/2018 |

| Court overturns move to bar Palestinians from Memorial Day service | | Times of Israel - The High Court on Tuesday ordered Defense Minister
Avigdor Liberman to grant entry permits to Israel to 90 Palestinians
who are slated to attend an Israeli-Palestinian memorial service in
Tel Aviv on Tuesday evening, saying his decision to ban them was
“unreasonable” and “imbalanced.” Liberman angrily retorted that the
ruling "created an equivalency between `terrorists` and bereaved
families". The Palestinians were invited as participants at the
annual ceremony, organized by the Combatants for Peace and the
Israeli and Palestinian Bereaved Families for Peace groups as an
alternative to the standard Israeli Memorial Day events. [ak]

| B`Tselem urges soldiers to refuse to shoot protestors in Gaza | | Amit Gilutz - B`Tselem - Tomorrow (Thursday) B`Tselem will launch a
campaign entitled “Sorry, Sir, I can`t shoot”. The campaign will
include newspaper advertisements clarifying to soldiers that they
must refuse to open fire on unarmed demonstrators. The organization
is taking this unusual step following last Friday’s events, when
soldiers used live fire against unarmed demonstrators. Of at least
17 Palestinians killed that day, 12 were killed at the protests.
Hundreds more were injured by live gunfire. Ahead of the expected
renewed demonstrations this Friday, B`Tselem is again clarifying
that shooting unarmed demonstrators is illegal and that orders to
shoot in this manner are manifestly illegal.[ak] | 4/4/2018 |

| Dublin city council votes to support BDS, call for expulsion of the Israeli Ambassador | | Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign / The Irish Examiner - Adopted
by a clear majority, the text of the resolution starts with "Dublin
City Council votes to support Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and
Sanctions (BDS) movement aimed at pressuring Israel to end
occupation and obey international law". The vote took place after
Dublin Mayor Mícheál Mac Donncha, of the Sinn Féin Party, rejected
out of hand a call by the Israeli Embassy to block the issue from
coming on the city council`s agenda. Indeed, the city council went
to vote on a separate resolution calling upon the Government of
Ireland to altogether expel the Israeli Ambassador. While that is
mainly declaratory, for its own part the Dublin City Council
concretely resolved to severe all business contact with the Hewlett-
Packard company and its HP spin-off DXC Technology, since "HP and
DXC provide and operate much of the technology infrastructure that
Israel uses to maintain its system of apartheid and settler
colonialism over the Palestinian people.” [ak]
