Palestinian resistance

I was delighted to see the headline "Peaceful Palestinian resistance is paying off." Peaceful Palestinian resistance is an often-overlooked everyday reality. One could do a whole series on the topic. It is certainly a subject worth pursuing and a positive philosophy worth respecting for Palestine's sake.

Dear Editor,

DELIGHTED to see the headline "Peaceful Palestinian resistance is paying off, Forget rock-throwing teens. Growing peaceful Palestinian resistance could tip the conflict."

Peaceful Palestinian resistance is an often overlooked everyday reality. One could do a whole series on the topic. It is certainly a subject worth pursuing and a positive life style philosophy worth respecting for Palestine's sake. There are many different ways to peacefully but firmly resist Jews-preferred Israel's ongoing efforts to divide and destroy all of Palestine.... For instance there are Fayyad's state building projects "Palestine: Ending the Occupation, Establishing the State", aimed at empowering Palestinian institutions and infrastructures.... Palestine: Moving Forward, Priority Interventions for 2010

And within Israel-proper another example are the courageous Palestinians explaining to the United Nations their concerns regarding t
he Simon Wiesenthal Center's insulting plan to construct an outpost of Los Angeles' Museum of Tolerance atop the most important Muslim cemetery in Jerusalem. ( A Museum of Tolerance we don't need)

And of course there is every artist- every dreamer- every reporter and every child developing their natural gifts and talents for Palestine's sake- that too is peaceful resistance.

Sincerely,
Anne Selden Annab

Palestinians and foreign activists dressed as characters from the movie "Avatar" to draw attention to their campaign against the controversial Israeli barrier hold Palestinian flags during a protest in the West Bank village of Bilin near Ramallah February 12, 2010. Israel started rerouting the barrier on Thursday in accordance with a Supreme Court ruling two years ago that said a section of the barrier set to cut through the village's farmland should circumvent it instead.
