DESCRIPTION:
|
"At The Green Line" is a passionate and raw documentary about Israeli conscientious objectors and active Israeli soldiers struggling to reconcile their roles as occupiers. Since January 2002, the "Courage to Refuse" movement has been growing steadily, with the conviction that "the commands issued to us in the Occupied Territories destroy all the values we were raised upon." Today, the movement numbers over 600 high-ranking soldiers and officers. Military service in Israel is mandatory, and this act of refusal is considered treason by a society that sees no other alternative to protecting their families and their country.
Topanga Peace Alliance (www.TopangaPeaceAlliance.org) a non-partisan peace and justice organization committed to non-violent conflict resolution.
Please bring wine, or finger foods. Donation .00 (All donations support guest speakers and covers room rental)
