Dear friend,

The mounting legal cost of the joint Palestinian-Israeli struggle

against the occupation is forcing us to send this urgent appeal for

funds. We are asking for your support to continue the work of the

Israeli group Anarchists Against the Wall (AATW).

For the past four years, the group has supported the Palestinian

struggle against Israeli occupation and specifically against Israel`s

segregation wall. Week after week, AATW joins the Palestinian popular

resistance against the wall, in diverse areas of the West Bank,

including the villages of Bil`in west of Ramallah, al-Ma`asara, and

Ertas, south of Bethlehem, and Beit Ummar, north of Hebron.

Activists have often been arrested and indicted for their participation

in the struggle. Fortunately, the group is represented by a dedicated

lawyer, Adv. Gaby Lasky. Adv. Lasky has tirelessly worked to defend

activists arrested at demonstrations or direct actions in the West Bank

and in Israel. Though the legal defense she provides AATW is almost a

full-time job, she has agreed to be paid only a token fee. However, the

group has not managed to cover even this sum, and now owes approximately

,000 in legal expenses for over 60 indictments. In addition to this

enormous legal debt, AATW activists are forced to spend large sums on

transportation and phone bills.

Please make a donation that will enable us to continue this struggle.

Thank you for your solidarity.
