Palestinian demonstrators will stand with Egyptians

Throughout the West Bank tomorrow the weekly demonstrations against the Israeli occupation and separation barrier will call for the safety of Egyptian protesters engaged in legitimate political protest. The villages of Bil’in, Ni’ilin, Nabi Saleh, and Al Ma’asara will stand in solidarity with the Egyptian people.

At least one thousand demonstrators from five Palestinian towns and villages will demonstrate tomorrow in various places in the West Bank against the Israeli occupation and in solidarity with the Egyptian people. The demonstrators will demand that their call for freedom of self determination denied to them by the Israeli occupation be heard along with the call for freedom of the Egyptian people.

The demonstrators will also be calling for the safety of the Egyptian people engaged in legitimate political protest. Please follow my twitter account for live updates from the ground as the demonstrations unfold.
