 (and Mission)\n\nAnarchists Against the Wall is a direct action group that 
 fights against Israeli apartheid and oppression in all its forms, most 
 recently also the atrocities in Gaza. For five years the group has waged a 
 constant struggle against Israel's Wall. The work on the ground in the West 
 Bank, alongside the Palestinian popular movement is breaking new ground in 
 the joint struggle for Palestinian liberation. In December 2008, Anarchists 
 Against the Wall and the Bil'in Village Committee were jointly awarded the 
 prestigious Carl von Ossietzky Medal---an award given annually by the 
 Berlin-based International League of Human Rights, named after German Nobel 
 Peace Prize winner Carl von Ossietzky who died in a Nazi concentration 
 camp.\n\nSince its formation in response to the construction of the West 
 Bank apartheid wall in 2003, the group has participated in hundreds of 
 demonstrations and direct actions against the wall specifically, and the 
 occupation generally, all over the West Bank. All of AATW's work in 
 Palestine is coordinated through villages' local popular committees and is 
 essentially Palestinian led.\n\nNow more than ever, it is critical to 
 support the Israeli resistance movement against the state's attempted 
 repression of our work. Members of Anarchists Against the Wall continually 
 pay the price for our activism, including being shot, beaten, arrested and 
 indicted. We desperately need funding for legal support for both 
 Palestinian and Israeli activists who are arrested and charged in the 
 course of the struggle.\n\nSchachaf Polakow, a member of Anarchists Against 
 the Wall, will be touring the U.S. and Canada from February 1st to March 
 9th. His presentation will include film and photos, and will focus both on 
 AATW's recent work in solidarity with Gaza and our ongoing work in the West 
 Bank.\n\nwww.awalls.org \n
