Resisting Israel’s Attacks on Palestine

August 4, 2021 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Webinar at 7 pm CT, Wednesday, August 4, 2021

The ugly truth of what is happening to Palestinians
in the West Bank and Gaza has been effectively
hidden by media silence. Israelis don’t want to
look and the West doesn’t know. The Israeli
Defense Force (IDF) and police protect and
reinforce attacks by “settlers”
which are
increasingly vicious and frequent. Israeli courts,
police and settlers have worked with the IDF
and Civil Administration for
de facto annexation
of most of the West Bank. What is happening
to Palestinians exemplifies colonialism
throughout the world.
