Twenty of our activists came to Bruqin yesterday to harvest olives alongside Palestinian farmers, and to make sure they did not have to face Israeli settler terror alone.

The olive harvest season has barely begun, and already Palestinians have been killed, beaten, shot at and driven from their land, while their trees, homes, vehicles, crops and equipment have been attacked by Israeli settlers.

Let’s be clear about what this is: a sustained effort to push Palestinian citizens out of political life and silence those who challenge Jewish supremacy, occupation and forever war.

On Sukkot, Jews step outside the solid walls of the home and into a tent to remember the vulnerability of wandering in the wilderness, and to celebrate the harvest. This is a humbling period of impermanence and simplicity.
Sukkot message on a blue background reads: May everyone on this land soon live without fear, under a roof that protects them, in a home they know will still stand tomorrow”

We disrupted a conference of the “Together” party led by Naftali Bennett, who vowed not to establish a Palestinian state, to remind the party that only diplomatic agreements and peace – not forever war – can bring safety to the people who live here.

1/ This is what dehumanization looks like. Not seeing Palestinians as people with families, fears, and dreams — but as numbers and targets that can be killed. Once you convince yourself that an entire people are somehow less human, there is no limit to the violence you can justify against them.

Israeli settlers are harassing a Palestinian family of four by setting up camp outside their home, sometimes joined by Israeli soldiers. Settlers targeting the area isn’t new, but the harassment has increased to include cutting off electricity and essentially trapping them inside. (14/)

Statement from the Manitoba Friends of Standing Together on the despicable attack on the Rahma Islamic Centre.
The Manitoba Friends of Standing Together are are shocked and disgusted by the violence perpetrated at the Rahma Islamic Centre last night. That the centre was attacked while worshippers were inside, after threatening remarks had been made to worshippers earlier in the day, is abhorrent.
We are grateful that no one was injured.These hateful acts against any group cannot be normalized. All people have the right to live with dignity and without fear. To stigmatize people as being "other" is to deny their essential humanity.
As a collective of Jews, Muslims, Christians, and allies, the Manitoba Friends of Standing Together condemn hateful violence in all its forms.

We didn’t take to the streets just because of settler violence – we were also protesting our extremist government that backs and funds this terror. Not only does it make daily life for many Palestinians in the West Bank unbearable, but it makes us all less safe. (1/3) Credit: Omer Shusheim

Every Saturday night we take to the streets across the country. Why? Because we will not stand by as our extremist ministers cement forever war, deepening occupation, bloodshed, and grief.
