WATCH: Israeli forces threw stun grenades and pushed and dragged Palestinians who were protesting the demolition of four buildings in the West Bank village of al-Walajeh over the weekend. 10 Palestinians were injured. [Via @nasseratta5]
Israel has demolished over 48,000 Palestinian structures in the occupied West Bank since 1967, the start of its military occupation of Palestinian land aljazeera.com/news/2017/02/d…
"When Israeli forces routinely and repeatedly demolish homes in occupied territory without showing that it’s necessary for military operations, it appears that the only purpose is to drive families off their land, which is a war crime”--@hrw hrw.org/news/2013/08/2…

Palestinian musician Naseem Alatrash just released his latest music video titled Lifta, after the Palestinian village destroyed and depopulated during the 1948 Nakba. The video is shot in what remains of Lifta village today.
In 1947 2,550 Palestinians lived in the town of Lifta. There were coffeehouses, shops, an elementary school, and a social club. But later that year Lifta was targeted by zionist militia and destroyed, its inhabitants displaced. eyewitnesspalestine.org/delegation66-e…
Naseem Alatrash is a globally acclaimed Palestinian cellist. He studied at the Edward Said National Conservatory of Music, a Palestinian music conservatory, before coming to the US to broaden his skills and perform on the global stage. berklee.edu/people/naseem-…

Israeli army checkpoints suffocate, humiliate, and collectively punish millions of Palestinians. Blocking patients from hospitals, children from schools, and workers from jobs. Decade after decade, a population being split into isolated islands, without one day of freedom.
"Ahmad’s alarm went off at 3:00am. That’s what time the 25-year-old from the West Bank village of Yatta needs to get up in order to get through the checkpoint and avoid being late for his construction job, which starts in Jerusalem at 7:00am." abc.net.au/news/2017-06-0…
There are at least 100 Israeli checkpoints in the occupied West Bank: If someone wants to run an errand that should take 10 minutes, it could turn into an hour, and the reason for that is the existence of the checkpoints. aljazeera.com/news/2015/11/i…

BREAKING: American artist Lana Del Ray just announced that she will not be participating in the Meteor Arts Festival in Israel this September after weeks of encouragement from BDS activists.
For weeks, Palestine rights activists and fans urged the American pop singer and other slated performers to cancel their appearances and not cross the Palestinian picket line. electronicintifada.net/blogs/nora-bar…
Back in April, Natalie Portman also made waves when she cancelled her trip to Israel to receive the Genesis Prize and in December, New Zealand singer Lorde cancelled her concert in Tel Aviv. hollywoodreporter.com/news/lana-del-…

<Thread👇> How does the @INSSIsrael Plan propose to redraw the #Israeli🇮🇱-#Palestinian🇵🇸 map? (N.B.: This is NOT a proposal for a peace treaty, but a back-up action plan for Israel to start separating from the Palestinians if final-status negotiations prove impossible.)
1/ The basis is Areas A + B from Oslo (40% of the West Bank). B might be expanded to include Palestinian "spillover" into C. PA security control over Area B, as in A. This is basis for a future Palestinian state, and possibly a Palestinian state in temporary borders.
2/ 25% of West Bank from Area C allocated for Palestinian economic development & int'l effort for industrialisation and building. Security and planning responsibility in Israel's hands, to be transferred incrementally to PA. Territorial contiguity, new transportational network.

The One State Reality - #Israeli control of #Palestinian daily life. Palestinians in West Bank must by water from Israel's national water company Mekorot, which appropriates 80% of West Bank water supply. #Apartheid @visualizingpal
Access: #Israel maintains over 98 fixed checkpoints & 100's of random "flying" checkpoints in the West Bank, choking #Palestinian freedom of movement. #Apartheid @visualizingpal
Currency: Today there is no #Palestinian currency; everybody uses the #Israeli shekel. Israel is capable of blocking any future attempts to create a Palestinian currency. #Apartheid @visualizingpal

1/21 From the very beginning #Israel planned to usurp #Palestine
#OsloPeace didn't manage to dismantle a single Settlement,to the contrary, #Israel started taking more #Palestinian Land
During the 7 yrs following #Oslo,the Settler Population within the #WestBank increased by 90%
2/21 Following Intl pressure to stop Settlements #Israel began new tactics,under the pretext of natural growth,they expanded & fattened,the existing settlements & connected them to each other & to Israel
Slicing the land blocking any possibility of a contiguous #Palestinian State
3/21 #Israeli Settlements along with their Road Network & Security Zones, occupy about 42% of Palestinian Land.
Roads btw Settlements can only be traveled by Settlers,the basic Human Right of Freedom of Movement within ones Home Country has been taken away from the #Palestinians

Curious what facts MSM is not reporting about today's planned tantrum in #Gaza that Palestinians call the #GazaReturnMarch? Look no further and unwind this thread 👇 #Israel
These planned riots on the border between #Israel and #Gaza have been taking place for 6+ weeks and expected to culminate on May 15th (tomorrow), to coincide with the Palestinian “Nakba” day.
#GazaReturnMarch is of course named after the so-called "right of return" of 5 - 7 million refugees and their offspring because Palestinians are invested in the mythology that they flood and strangle #Israel, a country of 8 million. Keep dreaming.
