Protest tent in Tel Aviv`s Sarona compound: "Looking the Occupation in the eyes". | | A protest tent calling on the general public of Israeli citizens to
face the realities of the Occupation will be set up in the Sarona
compound in Tel Aviv, at the corner of Kaplan and Leonardo da Vinci
streets, starting Wednesday at 14:00 noon and Friday at 16:00.
The tent, set up by citizens, women and men, not parties and
activists, not political pressure groups,
and not protest organizations, wishes to rattle the indifferent
Israelis, those who prefer to ignore, look the other way or bury
their heads in the sand, in the face of the horrors that occur daily
and hourly in the occupied Territories, where Palestinian shepherds
and farmers are persecuted on a daily basis With the help of the
army, they are displaced, their homes are destroyed, the water
sources for their flocks are looted, their orchards and vineyards
are uprooted or burned - and they, men, children, women and the
elderly remain forlorn in the fierce sun of the occupied
territories. [ak] | 26/8/2021 |
