16px;text-align: left;">Today, in Palestine, the Palestinian
people are rising up, marching, demanding justice and an end to
the settlements, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid that has ravaged
their land. The Zionist state is repressing Palestinians with
massive brutality: shooting down Palestinian youths in murderous
extrajudicial assassinations, rounding up demonstrators in mass
arrests, closing Jerusalem’s Old City to Palestinians, attacking
Al-Aqsa Mosque with invasions and burnings, and sending mobs of
settler colonists to attack Palestinian villages. Hundreds of
Palestinians have been wounded with US-made and funded tear gas
and bullets in the past several days.</p>

From inside the prison walls to the streets of Jerusalem, Nablus,
Al-Khalil, Tulkarem, Nazareth, Palestinians are resisting. Zionist
occupation forces are waging a campaign of terror, arrest and
assassination as well as the demolition of the family homes of
Palestinian resisters and martyrs, while the bodies of slain
Palestinian youth are being held hostage by the Zionist state.</p>
