Joe Carr Reports from Bil'in
This is Joe Carr's account of the October 15 Bil'in protest.
Joe sustained injuries from a rock and underwent an operation to repair his spleen.
Nevertheless, Joe writes "I completely affirm Palestinians right to resist Israeli colonial occupation. Palestinians have the right to do much more than throw rocks at soldiers committing colonial genocide, and they must if they are to survive. Boys with rocks are hardly a match for the Israeli Military heavily stocked with the US’s most deadly weapons, so it is my responsibility to help protect these boys as they symbolically resist. "
