فلسطيني لا يحمل شهادة ولا يتحدث اللغات الأجنبية يريد الدراسة في جامعة هنجارية
اتحاد عمال فلسطين ألمانيا في بيان شديد اللهجة حول تصریحات محمود عباس الأخيرة
From International Solidarity Movement (ISM) – Over 100 Palestinians together with international solidarity activists gathered in Hebron this Saturday to protest against the closure of Al-Shuhada Street. As a response to the infamous YouTube video of soldiers dancing near the illegal settlement of Tel-Rumeida, some protesters staged a dance protest: three dancers took the role of soldiers and searched and “arrested” three Palestinians.
They performed in front of the gate that closes off Al-Shuhada Street and prohibits all Palestinians from using it. The demonstrators called for justice and the opening of Al-Shuhada Street, and for the inhabitants of illegal Israeli settlements to leave the city and take the soldiers with them.
There are 18 check points that severely limit the movement of Palestinians in the Israeli military controlled area of Hebron (known as ‘H2’). Palestinian residents face daily attacks and harassment from soldiers and extremist, fanatical zionist colonists who are often armed and violate the rights of Palestinians with impunity.
You’re victory dance is premature. Dance all you want after you’ve won your freedonm and dignity back, but until then stop wasting time allowing further suffering with all the dance lessons and get on with the fight.
I wish it was longer and mocked the soldiers more. The choreography was pretty good though for an oppressed people. It reminded me of those Jewish wedding dances combined with the “macarena” from Mexico circa 1995 and then the TSA pat down to hand-cuff maneuver was nice. Still I would have liked to see some bulldozer motifs, and perhaps children being hit with the butt-end of a rifle. Maybe they could have a soldier harrassing an old man on the way back from the store. I don’t know, just some ideas.
