Juan Cole 05/15/2013

From Al-Araqib to Susiya (English) , a film by al-Adalah (Justice) :

” Two Villages – One Story
An Interactive Dialogue on Forced Displacement

In a new short film, From Al-Araqib to Susiya, Adalah journeys between two Palestinian villages on either side of the Green Line. The residents of Al-Araqib and Susiya tell their stories and reveal the striking parallel between their struggles against Israel’s policies of forced displacement. In two different geo-political contexts, Israel suspends the rights of Palestinians and systematically dispossesses them of their land.”
