I’m back with more photos from my trip to Palestine/Israel, covering the next two days in the sequence. The below image is during one of our many meetings with various organizations. This group in particular was called Sabeel. They are Palestinians who are Christians working for peace in many places, but pictured here is their...
Joel,
Thanks for your postings on Palestine. I do love your photos and updates. I gave your blog address to a blog friend in Paris. She posts often on Palestine also. http://www.parisparfait.typepad.com
Not that I can remember…wait, who am I? Thanks for the comment, Leah. =)
Joel, these are awesome pictures that tell a lot of stories. Are you sure you don’t have a secret life that we all don’t know about as a top secret photo journalist? 
Hey friends, everything I’ve been trying to relay about my experience has been captured for the most part in a 60 MINUTES video! The fact that American media is showing this story about the occupation is amazing in and of itself! Please find some time to sit down to watch this, as it really explains...

Thanks, Joel, for sending this. I thought they did an excellent job of reporting! Somewhat hopeful, isn’t it, that the more mainstream press is speaking out.
We begin again in At Tuwani, where CPT has their main operation which I explained in my earlier post. We did school patrol again at the crack of dawn, and luckily there was no conflicts once again. We did have some settlers in a suv drive by very slowly on a road about 300 feet...

Sure thing, no worries.
I really liked you blog post! I searched all over to finally find something that made sense! Would you mind terribly if I place a link back from my site at whiterabbitcult.com?
I apologize for the long delay, I really have no good excuse, so here we go again… One of the groups we met with the next day in Hebron before leaving for At Tuwani was the Women’s Center for Legal Aid and Counseling, which is the first and only organization in Hebron to address issues...

Hey Joel,
My mom told me about this blog so I came to take a look. They are very beautiful pictures. I am glad you got to go to Palestine. I have been protesting and praying back here in L.A. I have also been working for muslims here, so Palestine is becoming closer to my heart. Thanks for the post.

Joel, there are some great shots in here man, and great job explaining the horrible things that are going on. I love the shot of the Shepard boy with his flock as well as the circle jet stream in the sky. Great work man! Hope you guys have a great Christmas!
All I can say is, “wow”. My jaw literally dropped when I read that there are still “honor deaths” happening. It makes me soooo thankful for our freedom (even though it has its own screwed up stuff) in the US.
