further information

i realized today that some of my readers might not know much or anything about the israeli occupation of palestine - so for those of you who are interested in learning about this issue (and/or want to talk to me about it when i get back) here are some resources for you:

1.) a documentary about the occupation. we watched this while living in beit sahour and it is available for free viewing. i highly recommend watching it to get an idea of injustices done to palestinians.

2.) the open letter to MCUSA congregations about Israel/Palestine.

3.) a super awesome amazing book that i wish everyone would read before i come home... ;)
