Loading ...Only a short time later—Another elder Palestinian dies at the hands of Occupying forces—this time as he protects his right to his little patch of ground from the Settlers
MSNBC’s Ali Velshi reported a story about an elder Palestinian, a shepherd and prominent activist, who valiantly resisted Israeli occupation through civil disobedience. Before the Velshi clip had been put back in the can, a pro-Israel media advocacy group in Boston picked up on his story, castigating him and the story. Contributing writer, John Mason, takes us into this story and a brief review of international law on foreign occupation, suggesting that Israel is contravening fundamental rules of international humanitarian law.
