Activity in Palestine

The activists of Looking the Occupation in the Eye are in constant contact with the Palestinian population and try to provide solutions to problems that arise as part of life under military occupation. There are cases during the hot summer days when the army or illegal settlers prevent the passage of drinking water tankers. Many times, passage is made possible thanks to the intervention of our activists, either through communication with the army or through physical escort of the tankers.

In addition, Palestinians encounter violence from settlers in the illegal outposts and settlements, which often prevent them from cultivating their land, grazing their flocks, harvesting their olive groves, or reaping their crops. This is in addition to orders issued by the army to prevent these farmers from reaching their lands. Our activists try to serve as a human shield against settler violence to enable Palestinian farmers to work.

For a long time now, our activists have been carrying out various protest actions throughout Palestine. We call them the "silent protest," in which activists stand with signs and large banners at friction points because Palestinians are forbidden to protest in such places. The prominent example is the Za'atara junction (called Tapuach junction by the settlers), where we come every week for a silent protest. Every Friday morning we stand there with our signs, in Hebrew and Arabic, facing the settlers and security forces, but no less importantly, facing the Palestinian population. It's important to us to convey to Palestinians the message that there are many people in Israel who believe in peace and are working to end the occupation.

It's important to us that Palestinians know that hope has not yet been lost for a life of freedom and equality. We see supreme importance in making our message present in Palestine as well.
