The Israeli occupation forces confiscated last week all the properties of the orphanage sewing workshop in the city of Hebron, and the bakery too. Then dumped them in a waste area in the southern part of the city. Depriving 4000 orphans of clothes and bread, and forcing 15 young orphan girls working in the workshop to unemployment.
Witnesses said that they saw the Israeli trucks bringing some of the orphanage belongings and dump them in a waste area near Yatta town south the city of Hebron, after breaking the orphanage machines beyond repair.
How very humane...

My God! That is really shocking to hear. I get a lot of harassment, but it's all "virtual". I have started to ignore it, but I do understand that things are hard for activists and people are so brainwashed that they think "our side" are neo-Nazis or something, or terrorists, and convincing them that it is Israel that carries out Nazi behaviour and are terrorists is beyond their capacity to accept.
There is no non-Zionised place in the West. This is going to change, but it takes time.
And as to getting people shut us up! I just went through a month of being blocked by Google Blogger, so what did I do? I opened more blogs and now a full-fledged site with Haitham and Gilad www.palestinethinktank.com, which in 3 days has built up the readership that my original blog took a few years to build! Iqbal's got something up there in Arabic and on Monday, she will be the top post in English. (other things of hers and Timmy are in the site) and check out my deconstruction of Israel Hasbara on Hasbara Deconstruction Site.
I'd love to see articles you write. I have more space to publish now, so don't forget to point out anything that you think should be getting wide dissemination.

- It is good that you are documenting this... the world doesn't know or care.
