URGENT - Stop the Isolation of Palestine from internatinal support

Three human rights campaigners on their way to the conference ’Celebrating
Non-Violence’ in Bethlehem have been denied entry at Ben Gurion airport.

They were stopped on Tuesday morning for ’security reasons’. Israeli courts
will make their decision tomorrow as to whether they can enter.

This is an important opportunity to challenge this policy and maybe even set
a legal precedent allowing internationals freer access to the Occupied
Territories.

They were completely honest about their reasons for coming to Palestine, and
about their past involvement with ISM and non-violent activism.

Please demand to know why Israel wants to deport peacemakers.
