I ask again and again: what's wrong with this picture? While "Revolutionaries" get passes from the Israeli Occupation Army to attend their Fatah "Liberation" conference, peaceful activists' homes are raided and residents are kidnapped by Israel.
Um... yeah, long live the revolution

"Major night invasion in Bil'in 03.08.2009

At 3am, the occupation forces invaded the village of Bil'in. A total of some 200 soldiers with combat paint in their faces and masks entered the village on foot at several points of entry. 5 homes were raided and a total of 8 people were arrested, 7 Palestinians and one international activist from the United States.

The arrested Palestinians are: the three brothers Khaled Show gut Abd-Alrazic al-Khateeb (age 23), Mustafa Show gut Abd-Alrazic al-Khateeb (age18), and Mohammed Show gut Abd-Alrazic al-Khateeb (age 16); Abdullah Ahmad Yassen (age 18); Abdullah Mohammed Ali Yassen (age 16); Issa Mahmoud Issa Abu Rahma (age 38); Mohammed Abdulkarim Mustafa Khatib (age 34). Abdullah Ahmad Issa Yassen was injured during the arrest and was bleeding in the face.

The occupation forces threw sound bombs to disperse the villagers who were coming into the streets at day-break throwing rocks at the arriving Jeeps and the soldiers that were still partly disguised from the night. The Jeeps then parked at various locations with their engines running until the end of the operation at 6:45am.

The Popular Committee of Bil'in has asked the Human Rights Committee to assist with both the release of the arrested people and the request that the Israeli Army stop the night raids."
