#BDS: The Importance Of The International Solidarity

By Iyad Burant - As the Nonviolence Resistance in Palestine is growing, I believe the international solidarity is one of the most important components of our struggle against the occupation.



The presence of the international supporters in Palestine is very importance especially in the nonviolent protests like those in Bil’in, Nil’in, Al Ma’ssara, and Al Nabi Saleh villages; those supporters help in deescalating the violence used by the Israeli military during those weekly actions. They are also our ambassadors to the world, they transmit the full picture of what is happening here to their home countries though there presence and cameras.


We know that the Israeli occupation depend on three venues that makes it strong in facing international law and escape all the crimes it does against the unarmed Palestinian people;


First venue is the Military power.This is the venue that we fight against by organizing nonviolent protests which thought out those activities, that involves participants from deferent countries, manage to disarm the Israeli military from its tools simply because its difficult to use military force to suppress nonviolent actions but it needs a great number of soldiers to counter those protests and that cost a lot.
