Recording of the 15 July 2025 ICAHD UK Webinar Human Rights Defenders: Resisting Settler Terrorism Issa Amro and Rabbi Arik Ascherman

Many thanks for registering for last week's ICAHD UK webinar, a recording of which is now available via the link below:

Last year, 69 settler outposts were established where in previous years that average was for between five to seven new outposts to be approved in any one year.

All Palestinians living in Area C are very much at risk of settler terrorism as settlers seek their displacement for more Israeli settlement construction (which is illegal under international law). In addition, new Israeli road construction going east to west in various localities such as between Bethlehem and Hebron will further fragment the West Bank, cutting off Palestinians from one another.

Israeli courts have also moved to the right so nowadays, it is much harder to get justice from cases presented to it. Nevertheless, Rabbi Arik spoke about a case that will be heard in the Israeli High Court on 1st September because one of the shepherding communities that was pushed off their land by settlers wants to return to it.

Both Issa and Rabbi Arik spoke of the vital need for internationals to demonstrate their solidarity by being with them to provide protective presence.

The webinar ended with a plea to push our government to not run scared of Trump but to step up to the plate to do what has to be done to stop this violence, this terror, this re-drawing of the maps and eliminating what is left of Palestinian living space.

Rabbi Arik Ascherman – Torat Tzedek – Torah of Justice. Former Director of Rabbis for Human Rights. Recipient of numerous peace awards including the Gandhi Peace Award for non-violence. He spearheads activities defending Palestinians from settler violence.
