Random pictures from Palestine

People have asked me to post more pictures I have taken about what is going on here. So here are some random pictures from the last three months.



Planting trees with farmers from Huwarra village. This farmers fields are located very near the illegal Israeli settlement of Itamar. Settlers often harass him and his family. He will only go to certain parts of his lands with an international presence.

My friend Yousef from Beit Omar. Yousef was arrested two nights ago at 1:30am by the Israeli army. He is being held without charge in an interogation center.


A demolished house in Silwan, occupied East Jerusalem. Israeli authorities destroyed this house a few months ago, displacing a large family. More than 100 houses in Silwan also face demolition, putting 1,052 people at risk of being homeless.

My friend Nasser from Sheikh Jarrah, occupied East Jerusalem. Nasser has been ordered to leave his home. Israeli authorities plan on turning his house over to settlers.

Palestinian youth set fire to tires at a demonstration against the Apartheid wall in Bi'lin. Every Friday for the past four years, Bi'lin residents have held demonstrations against the wall. Israeli soldiers often fire tear gas, rubber bullets, and live ammunition at the demonstrators. Hundreds of people have been injured.
