Hebron – Ma'an – Israeli forces demolished seven Palestinian houses on Thursday, in the villages of Qwiewis and Mniezel, south of Hebron, in the southern West Bank.
Security sources stated that an Israeli military force invaded the Palestinian area and imposed curfew, before they started to demolish several houses, claiming that the homes were built without licenses.
The Israeli military demolished six houses in the area almost a month ago, which were subsequently rebuilt with assistance from foreign solidarity activists. The Israelis demolished them once again today.

Exactly! Why should they? Why does no one else ask this simple question?
I am a Canadian woman--mother, grandmother-- in solidarity with you. There will be more and more. I asked myself what I can do, and my answer, right now, is to just talk to people about Palestine and Israel, give them books, etc.. So many North Americans are just ignorant of the oppression because they only see one side in the media.
Cleo,
The reason I think the question was never asked before may be because no ever thought of it before.
Cleo, I appreciate your efforts very much and do agree with you very much.
If their was more people like you that stood up for the truth, the world would be a much better place.
