CHICAGO: CPT’s Israeli and Palestinian peace partners call for “flood” of
internationals to come. CPT looking for February delegates.
Last week’s Palestinian extremist suicide bombings and Israeli government
reprisal air-strikes leave little optimism for shalom/salaam in
Israel-Palestine. As the violence continues to spiral, what is needed –now
more than ever — is a heightened international presence in the region to
bear witness. International eyes reduce violence.
CPT’s Palestinian and Israeli peace partners are calling for a flood of
internationals to be present in the Occupied West Bank as the violence
intensifies.
CPT’s next delegation to the Middle East is February 14-26, 2002.
The situation is critical. Are you able to go?
