(trust me, I saw a lot of posters)

AlQuds: Live, Protect, and Shop In It

"AlQuds/Jerusalem: Live, Protect, and Shop In It". Saw this right around the corner from Masjid Al-Aqsa and the Dome of the Rock.

Live, Protect, & Shop In It

It’s actually quite depressing leaving this city after being in Palestine for a week and a half. I could seriously spend my entire summer in this city without regretting it, but my time here is almost up :( I’m sorry I know I’ve lagged on updating the blog. Haven’t had internet access every evening and those evenings that we have had access I’ve been dead tired to write up anything for the blog. So check this out I’m going to post our complete itinerary after this post so you can check out what we’ve been up to for the past week (I didn’t want to make this information public before because I wanted to get here safely before posting it on the world wide web… didn’t seem to help much though, I still got stuck at the border for an entire day going through background clearance and three different interrogations, more on that here).

So as part of the Students Boycott Apartheid delegation we’ve been to quite a lot of places in such a short amount of time (Al-Quds/Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Khalil/Hebron, Dheishah Refugee Camp, Ramallah, Nablus, Balata Refugee Camp, Um Il Fahm, Al-Lajun, Haifa, Tel Aviv, Yaffa, Naqab/Negev, and Lyd ALL in ONE WEEK!). The organizers did an amazing job in developing the programming. So I’ll be writing up my analysis from all the meetings and places we went to within the coming week and most likely finishing it once I get back to the states. In the mean time check out the complete itinerary and feel free to ask any questions. We’ll be spending the next 4 days in Ramallah for workshops with Palestinian students and then I’ll be returning to Amman to catch a flight to Cairo to join the Viva Palestina USA Convoy inshaAllah/God-willing!

By the way, I took a ton of pictures that aren’t on the picasa gallery yet so I’ll upload the best ones now and a lot more once I get back.
