more to be found here on why i oppose israel with a method one church is using;
I once read a list of abuses to the Ainsworth congregation. Here is a short version: In the West Bank, Palestinian children as young as six are pulled from their beds in the middle of the night by the Israeli Defense Forces and arrested. No parent or lawyer is allowed to go with them. They are often tortured and then forced to sign confessions in Hebrew, a language they do not understand. Over 400 “flying” Israeli checkpoints block movement. Eyewitnesses report that Palestinians have died stopped at checkpoints while on the way to the hospital. Palestinians are blocked from their own fields, jobs, and children from school. Palestinian homes are systematically bulldozed by the Israeli government and the owner is sometimes forced to pay for that demolition while homeless.
Settlements have water provided 24/7 for homes, gardens, bushes, and pools while water in some Palestinian areas is distributed only once per week to small tanks on their roofs. They ration their water. Settlers have burned Palestinian owned orchards. Palestinian Bedouin’s goats and sheep have been slaughtered by settlers who are not arrested by police and soldiers who protect the settlers. Settlers travel on settler-only roads that lead to Jerusalem and their jobs. Settlers have specifically colored license plates. Palestinians have different colored license plates limiting access to settler-only roads so they struggle on torn-up old roads.............read and watch more.....
