In the meantime, we are still maintaining our plans for the ZOOM interview organized by Michael Spath (Indiana Center for Middle East Peace) scheduled for Monday, February 7, 2022, at 1:00 p.m. (EST). You will also, most likely, be hearing about the latest news from Daoud about the recent attacks. We feel that now, more than ever, the message of “hope” is desperately needed by all of us who support the struggle for greater human rights and dignity for not only the Nassar family but also for the many workers for justice on both sides of the wall.

Several masked men came onto the property and brutally beat Daoud and Daher, sending them both to the hospital for an overnight stay. We are happy to report that none of their injuries were life threatening. SPONSORS CO-SPONSORS ICAHD-USA INTERVIEWS AUTHOR SYLVAIN CYPEL Bob's review of the book recently appeared in Mondoweiss (January 10, 2022): ‘The State of Israel vs the Jews’ — important new book chronicles Israel’s spiritual demise. Sylvain Cypel's "The State of Israel vs. The Jews" shows how bereft of human decency Israelis have become in their treatment of Palestinians, and how much Jewish moral patrimony has been given up in creating, supporting, and tolerating a Jewish State."

The map illustrated here shows at a glance just how invasive the demolitions were throughout much of the West Bank and within East Jerusalem. Two animated maps have also been prepared. One shows the demolitions month by month in the West Bank and Naqab (https://icahd.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3728e1a8014d53820403ca12&id=0b3ed92679&e=e7bc936ee5) . The other illustrates the demolitions in East Jerusalem between 2004 – 2021 (https://icahd.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3728e1a8014d53820403ca12&id=481fb5be63&e=e7bc936ee5) . These maps are suitable for use on mobile phones and social media. Please use these maps for your awareness raising and lobbying political representatives.
