Incredible #PalestineWrites Lit Festival continues. In Nature under settler colonialism lawyer Rabea Eghbariah discussed bizarre fact that Israel has criminalized the picking of zatar & akoub (tumble thistle) & lifted camels and removed them as a road problem #amwriting
Thus the control of herbs commonly used in Palestinian cooking and camels used by Bedouins is part of settler colonialism and continued efforts to erase Palestian life. Making and eating zatar is now an act of resistance!!! #PalestineWrites

On November 13 Dani Dayan, the Israeli consul general who himself is a settler gave a talk at @Harvard_Law School on the "legal strategy of Israeli settlements." As he began the talk, two thirds of the room got out of their seats, were silent, and
Student held up signs saying "Settlements Are A War Crime" in protest. They walked out of the room en masse. Dani Dayan was left to complete his talk to a largely empty room. More via @Mondoweiss: mondoweiss.net/2019/11/harvar…

Jewish Voice for Peace - Health Advisory Council #WeeklyHumanRightsHero & Violation Aug 19, 2018
Violation: Israeli gov. use of health & health care as a weapon of war - this serious human rights violation comes in conjunction w/ a statement by JVP HAC: jewishvoiceforpeace.org/jvp-health-adv…
Whether through denying entry of many essential medications and medical equipment/technology used for serious medical conditions including cancer treatment or the denial of exit visasfor critically ill patients to receive care outside of the Gaza Strip...
...Israel is increasingly making it impossible for patients to get the life-saving care they need. Ex: "Suddenly, a Palestinian Breast Cancer Survivor Becomes a 'Security Threat'" by @Hass_Haaretz:
