There are always the special moments throughout the day, times when our souls are reminded of the wonderful beauty that reaches from our hearts to touch another. The #Easton #Cowgirls from #Bristol and the Republica Internationale FC from #Leeds, two womens soccer teams from England have been playing against other #Palestinian womens soccer teams across the #WestBank as a means to build solidarity with those suffering from #military occupation. Today they went on a tour with #CPT to get a broader understanding of the dynamics of #Israeli settlement policy and how it negatively impacts the lives of the people in #Hebron. We stopped at a kindergarten which has faced several attacks by the #Israeli settlers over the years and for a long time had #Hebrew writing that said Death to the #Arabs ( bit.ly/1rSSTot ). The pure joy and jubilation that these #soccer clubs brought to the #kids today made all of the military occupation and oppression disappear for a few moments. #Peace #Love #Harmony #Grateful #Palestine #England Consider a contribution to the Christian Peacemaker Teams to support peace and justice.
