Israeli army shuts down Palestine Festival of Literature

PALFEST 2009: Day 1:

http://www.palfest.org

Palestine Festival of Literature: a traveling cultural roadshow touring across the West Bank from the 23rd to the 28th of May 2009.

Because of the difficulties Palestinians face under military occupation in traveling around their own country, the Festival will travel to its audiences. It will tour to Ramallah, to Jenin, to al-Khalil/Hebron and to Bethlehem. To celebrate its year as Cultural Capital of the Arab World, the festival will begin and end in Jerusalem.

"The Israeli army shuts down the National Theatre in an attempt to cancel the opening of the 2009 Festival."
