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?

Please contact Mark Frey at CPT for information and an application:

312-455-1199;

guest.76645@MennoLink.org

[Future delegations: May 24-June 5 and July 25-August 6, 2002]
