Israeli troops attack a nonviolent protest near Bethlehem

Scores of villagers from Al Ma'ssara, located near the southern West Bak city of Bethlehem and their international supporters protest the Israeli illegal wall on Friday.

The protesters gathered at the village school then marched towereds the location where the Israeli military is building the Wall. People cared Palestinian flags and photos of George Habash, a Palestinian leftist leader, to mark the first anniversary of his death.

Israeli troops stopped the people from reaching their lands where the army is building the wall and attacked some of them, troops also took some of the demonstrators ID cards as well as a number of local journalists and held them for some time. Protesters then blocked the nearby settlers' road for half an hour in protest of the Israeli troops attack on them.

we expect nothing less from them

sad but true

No doubt the pro-zionist fools will soon be saying 'yeah but anyone of those protestors could have had a rocket launcher in their pocket'.

The anticipation crucifies me, it really does.

In the eyes of the blind, the Israeli's are innocent of all charges.
