Leeds Palestine Solidarity Campaign Presents:

Film Nights at the Common Place Cinema

Join us for a fortnightly film and discussion night
At the Common Place, Wharf Street (off Kirkgate) Leeds City Centre

Wednesday 19th July 7 pm:
Food & a presentation from an ISM activist about the work of activists in Hebron and villages cut off from their land by the illegal wall.

7:30pm film: “Visit Palestine”

What drives a young, well-educated Westerner to volunteer as a “peace activist” in the Middle East?

Caiomhe Butterly is one of a growing number of volunteers who risk their own safety to intervene in the long-running and bloody conflict between Israel and Palestine. Several internationals, including her, have now been injured. Some have died.

This film offers an insight into a brave, honest, determined yet self-critical woman who takes direct action to the limit, with no quest for glory. The film gives us a rare chance to see what she calls “the spaces of beauty and joy” created by a people under occupation.

"What drives a young, well-educated Westerner to volunteer as a “peace activist” in the Middle East? "

A couple of days with the Jew haters of the ISM would be probably be enough to convince a gullible Middle Class do-gooder

anri-semitism, irrelevent in a generation
