Activity in Palestine

The activists of Looking the Occupation in the Eye are in regular contact with the Palestinian population and are trying to address problems that arise as part of life under military occupation. There are cases on hot summer days that the army or illegal settlers prevent the passage of drinking water tankers. Many times the crossing is made possible thanks to the intervention of our activists, either through communication with the military or with the physical escort of the tankers.
‍
In addition, Palestinians face violence from settlers from outposts and illegal settlements, which often prevents them from cultivating their land, grazing their crops, harvesting their olive groves or harvesting their crops. This is in addition to the decrees the military issues to prevent those same farmers from reaching their lands. Our activists are trying to act as human shields against settler violence to allow Palestinian farmers to work.
‍
For a long time now, our activists have been carrying out various protest actions throughout Palestine. We call the same “silent protest,” where activists stand with large signs and banners at points of friction because Palestinians in such places are not allowed to protest. The most prominent example is the Zaatra junction (apple junction in the mouth of the settlers), which we come to every week for a peaceful protest. Every Friday morning we stand there with our signs, in Hebrew and Arabic, in front of the settlers and the security forces, but not least in front of the Palestinian population. It is important for us to convey to the Palestinians a message that there are many people in Israel who believe in peace and are working to end the occupation.

It is important for us that the Palestinians know that hope for a life of liberty and harmony has not yet been lost. We see paramount importance in proving our message in Palestine as well.
