Occupation allows for live ammunition at demonstrations
Latest News, Palestinian grassroots Anti-Apartheid Wall Campaign, March 19th, 2008
A so-called legal advisor and general representative in the Occupation government has announced a decision that gives border police the right to use live ammunition against Palestinian demonstrations and protests that take place close to the Apartheid Wall.
This order has been undertaken in order to prevent Palestinians from protesting against the Wall that is built on their lands. The order does not allow for the use of live ammunition at actions where internationals or Israelis are present.
This decision, which is inherently racist, illustrates the Occupation’s disregard for Palestinian blood. It will not, however, stop us from fighting against the Occupation on our own land.
