Starting off


So I've decided to give blogging a go. Not really sure how this is all going to work out. You're going to find less personal updates and thoughts and more about the situation here.

As most of you know, I have been living and working in occupied Palestine for the last two months now and I am currently traveling around to different cities and villages around the West Bank. I am working with the International Solidarity Movement, a Palestinian-led direct action movement that is committed to challenging the occupation. So most of my work is supporting Palestinian resistance; going to demonstrations, documenting Israeli settler and soldier violence, locating political prisoners, breaking curfews, and being on-call for military invasions. I also work with the Jaffa women's embroidery co-operative in the old city of Hebron.

I will try to post every two days or so. Please share these stories, they need to be told!

Yours in struggle,
Tom
