The book…

A FIRST-HAND ACCOUNT OF THE OCCUPATION OF PALESTINE, WRITTEN BY A BRITISH PEACE ACTIVIST.

In December 2001 Ted Curtis travelled to Beit Sahour, a small town near Bethlehem in the West Bank, to participate in Non-Violent Direct Action against occupation of Palestine, then in its 35th year. From there he travelled all over the West Bank with the International Solidarity Movement in little more than a week; joining in demonstrations, helping to dismantle illegal IDF roadblocks, and listening to stories of terror from the occupation. Initially a history buff, he was moved to read around the subject following this experience and he returned to Bethlehem just in time for the mendaciously-named “Operation Defensive Shield”. This is some of his story.
