repressione manifestazione - da Operazione Colomba
Lo scorso 26 giugno migliaia di pacifisti ebrei israeliani, musulamni e cristiani palestinesi, e anche internazionali provenienti da diverse parti del mondo, mentre dimostravano in modo nonviolento sulla strada tra Gerusalemme e Ramallah contro la costruzuione del Muro, sono stati ripetutamente caricati dalla polizia israeliana. Gas fumogano CS, bombe sonore, pallotole di gomma, minaccia di uso pallotole normali. 5 israeliani e 3 palestinesi arrestati. Presenti alla manifesatzione anche la prima autorita religiosa musulmana e la seconda autorità della Chiesa Greco/Ortodossa, nonche i boy scout. In questi giorni si sta costruendo il Muro che separerà gli abitanti di Gerusalemme da se stessi. A Muro ultimato ci saranno parenti divisi, lavoratori tagliati fuori dal la loro lavoro, cittadini della Municipalita che non potranno accedere ai servizi stessi.

so my friends, today we, palsetinians, israelis and internationals, icluding the Mufti of jerusalem and Abuna*the father, Atta Alla Hana and some other palestinian and israeli parliamentries, took part in a non viloent demonistration in Al Ram, those of you who have been in Jerusalem few weeks ago will not believe how the situatuion is now, will not recognize the area. we gathered to protest the Aparthied Wall that is being built around palestinian villages and cities. the israeli occupation forces, turned the demonistration into a violent one from the first minutes...it was so violent, one can not imagine how brutal the humanity can be...they even shot an ambulance that was almost burnt, when inside this ambulance there was an injured who suffered from gaz tears...
