Veterans For Peace in Palestine: 12 Years of Resistance in Bil'in

The first of several documentaries to be produced about our recent delegation to the people and popular resistance movement of Palestine. This short documentary covers our first day in Palestine, as we took part in the 12th anniversary of weekly demonstrations in the village of Bil'in against the Apartheid Wall and the seizure of the village's farming lands.

Will Griffin, who was a member of our delegation and runs The Peace Report, put this doc together and, along with film maker Chris Smiley, will be putting together further videos and documentaries.

Will also did me a great favor by finding and posting, on The Peace Report, the recent United Nations report that established "on the basis of scholarly inquiry and overwhelming evidence, that Israel is guilty of the crime of apartheid" (emphasis mine). This report generated great controversy as the United States, Israel's lone supporter in the world, with the exception of one or two other nations, forced the UN to pull the report from the world's view. The UN Under Secretary General for West Asia, Rima Khalaf, resigned her position in response to the UN's cowardice and the US' obscuration. The report, Israeli Practices towards the Palestinian People and the Question of Apartheid, can be found at The Peace Report.

Please give the documentary a watch and please share it widely. Wage peace.
