DESCRIPTION:Hear Dr. Jeff Halper, a long term Israeli Peace Activist, describe what is 
 happening now in both Israel and the Occupied West Bank, Jerusalem and 
 Gaza.  He will show pictures to illustrate events and give us a view that 
 we don't often get in the US.  He will discuss fustrations and signs of 
 hope.  Come to learn and to ask your questions.\n\nDr. Halper, a 2006 Nobel 
 Peace Prize nominee, is the Director of the Israeli Committee Against House 
 Demolitions (ICAHD).  Through its non violent resistance to the demolition 
 of Palestinian homes and other manifestations of the Occupation, including 
 the rebuilding of demolished homes as acts of political solidarity, ICAHD 
 has developed a relationship of trust and close cooperation with 
 Palestinian organizations.  \n\nIn addition to his three decades of 
 involvement with the Israeli peace movement since coming to Israel from the 
 US, Jeff has been active on issues of social justice within Israel and has 
 written extensively on Israeli society.  A Professor of Anthropology who 
 has taught at Haifa and Ben Gurion Universities (as well as heading the 
 international Friends World College), he is the author of "Between 
 Redemption and Revival: The Jewish Yishuv in Jerusalem in the Nineteenth 
 Century" (Westview, 1991) and of "Obstacles to Peace: A Reframing of the 
 Palestinian - Israeli Conflict" now in its 3rd Edition  and   "An Israeli 
 in Palestine: Resisting Dispossession, Redeeming Israel."  (Pluto Press 
 2008.)  For ten years, Professor Halper worked in Jerusalem's inner-city 
 neighborhoods where he helped initiate the Ohel social protest movement of 
 working-class Mizrahi Jews. He has also served as the Chairman of the 
 Israeli Committee for Ethiopian Jews.\n
