pics d'une manif a Bi'lin contre le Mur/ Pics from a demonstration in Bi'lin against the Wall

8 Juillet.
photos d'une manifestation contre le Mur a Bi'lin un petit village a l'ouest de Ramallah. Le village est le theatre de nombreuses manifestations depuis des semaines, les habitants ont deja perdu beaucoup de leur terres. la semaine derniere la manifestation a ete tres violemment reprimee. Hier, les soldats ont fait preuve de plus de retenue surment a cause de la presence de personnalites. Il y avait des representants de differents groupes, des internationaux aussi dont des Israeliens.
nous nous sommes rendus pres de la constrution du Mur, les Palestiniens ont prie dignement. mais ensuite des pierres ont ete lancees sur les soldats par les jeunes du village, la reponse ne s'est pas fait attendre, les manifestants se sont vite disperses, puis les soldats ont charge. a la fin de la manifestation, plus d'une dizaine de blesses. le jeune sur la photo a 24 ans et a ete frappe par une balle en caoutchou, heureusement la balle a evite de justesse son oeil, un autre jeune a ete opere, la balle en caoutchou etant rentree dans son estomac.

Partout en Palestine il y a des manifestations, et la plupart du temps la maniere dont elles sont reprimees est totalement disproportionnee et illegale (usage disproportionne de la force contre des civils). Aller manifester ici c'est prendre un risque enorme, et beaucoup de Palestiniens n'en sortent pas indemnes. Pourquoi ne parle-t-on pas dans les medias de cette resistance la?



ENGLISH.
Pictures from a demonstration in Bi'lin, a small village west of Ramalla. The demonstration was against the construction of the Wall. For months now there have been demonstrations and last week it has been brutally repressed ans some people were arrested, including internationals. Yesterday the soldiers were less brutal, notably due to the presence of several personnalities, but still more than 10 people were injured. the demonstrations included representatives from different groups, and also some internationals, including Israelis.
We went down to the construction site of the Wall, where the soldiers were waiting for us. Palestinians began to pray, it was a very strange scene to witness. Then the youths of the villages started to throw a few stones to soldiers. and of course the soldiers started to charge and throw gaz. then most demonstrators left and the battle began between the youth and the soldiers. At the end more than ten were injured. The young Palestinian on the picture was hit by a rubber bullet and was lucky enough that it missed his eye. Another one had to be opereated because the rubber bullet went into his body.

Everywhere in Palestine, there are some demonstrations. Most of the time they are brutally repressed, in a disproportionate way. Such acts are illegal because it targets civilians. Going to demonstrate has become very dangerous and many Palestinians are injured, or arrested during such demonstrations. Why do the media stay silent?
