Fighting the Wall at al-Ma'asara

The Alternative Information Center, 02 June 2009

 

On April 22, at al-Ma'sara, the weekly protest in this village near Bethlehem was met by armed soldiers who had blocked the village exit road with razor wire, denying the people their right to access their land. Around 80 people marched to show their support for al-Ma'saras struggle against the Wall. Locals were joined by Israelis and internationals. The organizers of the protest, the al-Ma'sara Popular Committee Against the Wall and Settlements, held speeches calling for an immediate end to the colonization of Palestinian land and an end to the occupation.
