Video: Palestinian women occupy Israeli military base in West Bank to protest Gaza attack

From the YouTube page:

Today around 4- Around 15 women reached to Beit El military camp carrying Palestinian flags and a banner that says ” “

8 women managed to climb to the roof of the military camp (though a ladder that they brought with them)- they managed to stay for around 15-20 min, before massive amounts of Israeli Soldiers realized that the women were there, surrounded the area, climbed to the roof and pulled the women down, and put them in Israeli jeeps and took them far away.

The message from todays action ” to support the Sumoud of our people in Gaza- The women chose Beit El Military camp because it is a symbol of the presence of Israeli occupation and military rule inside the westbank.”

8 women were arrested and are still under detention till this moment.

At night around 10 managed to get back to the military camp.. in attempt to release the arrested ones.. soldiers attacked them violently and tried to arrest them.

Wow. And the media coverage that’s now on the net is great. The whole system is rotten. With Bibi as the fish head.

Jewish hegemony is based on fear but it has to be hidden from the world.

Palestinian courage is impressive. America watches Red Dawn on TV, but the real thing is Palestinian. We who grew up since the state of Israel was established have all learned that once, Jews “walked to their doom,” then fought once they had a military machine. And so we learned what war machine/rich Jews will do with their power. But look how long the Palestinians have been the crushed by the Jewish American- Israeli boot yet they strive on–sans military power or economic power and “on a diet.”

Of course, we don’t know what the Palestinians will do if they ever get power–they voted for Hamas. But, is it not their turn? Why stop the clock to save the Jews, as if they are somehow more worthy? 98% of US is not Jewish nor Arab. They hold the key (as England once did). No wonder the US main media is so complicit in keeping data about the I-P conflict, and about the specifics of the very, very unique “special relationship” the US regime always has with Israel. It won’t last forever; it depends on keeping data from Dick and Jane.

Here’s a clip of the first (daylight) climb of the women to the roof of the military base: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGX5HH7svig
