“We are Here to awaken from our Illusion of Separateness” Thich Nhat Hanh

[I have not posted much last week as I was traveling in protected areas in
Jordan to learn and collaborate on issues of conservation. Please excuse
the length of this but you can open links you like]

All Palestinian are saddened by the death of Pope Francis. He spoke
repeatedly against the ongoing genocide and destructionof our people and wa
attaked for this by te Zionist movement. He kept touch with the church
inGaza regularly even from his hospital bed. He cared for people regardless
of their religion and made peace a key feature of his tenure. He built
respectful and good relations between people of all faiths in a time when
right wing white fascists are taking control of governments around the
world (Orban, Netanyahu, Trump etc). We at Bethlehem University are also
especially sad because of the fact that this university was established by
the Vatican to serve the Palestinian people in 1973.

On Palm Sunday Israel bombed a church run hospital with U weapons amd US
taxpayer money. Western media was silent and money for the aparheid
genocidal regime continues to flow
