I don’t normally post about a kickstarter project unless it is rather extraordinary and I think this one is. Please take a look at the short video below and consider donating to this amazing project. What the filmmakers have to say about their project (which can be found here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/705674251/in-the-image):
IN THE IMAGE: CAPTURING THE STRUGGLE FOR PALESTINIAN HUMAN RIGHTS
IN THE IMAGE is a documentary about Palestinian women who film human rights abuses throughout the occupied West Bank. Each woman in our film belongs to the Camera Project, a unique collaboration of Jews and Arabs who use video to fight for justice, equality, and against intimidation by Israeli settlers and soldiers. Most importantly, the film explores the lives of these young Palestinian women as they enter the 21st century: their struggles between tradition and modernity, between invisibility and international media attention. The film also reveals the heartwarming collaboration between Arabs and Jews - a joint effort to achieve a just peace.

Shalom and greetings from Jerusalem, I watched the video shot by the young Palestinian woman. Justice is important. However, supporting this project helps paint a one-sided picture. Both sides need more angels. The reality is that many Israelis in southern cities live in terror, by the bombings of Palestinians into Israel. Should you wish to see photos of innocent people and property damaged by bombs triggered in Gaza, let me know. Perhaps these young women could make a film on how their citizens prepare to bomb Israelis. I condemn all brutality against mankind.
I pray for compassion and understanding in the world. I invite you to check out the facebook group, Art for the Soul. This is a platform for artists of all kinds to post positive, uplifting work. I am the founder of the group.
May all of us be blessed with harmony in the world.
Sincerely,
Pearl
