Palestinian Tent of Nations-We Refuse To Be Enemies-Non-Violent Resistance-

Palestinian Christian Daoud Nassar just completed a very successful speaking tour in Arizona. Daoud's compelling testimony explains his family's non-violent actions to save their 100 year old farm that is surrounded by five, illegal, Israeli settlements in the West Bank of Palestine and subject to the injustices of a brutal military occupation. Daoud's project is called Tent of Nations, and is truly unique in peacemaking efforts as it follows what Jesus taught, "Blessed are the peacemakers for the shall be called sons of God" (Matthew 5:7). Please take time to watch this inspiring, 8 minute video by Urban Tribes that gives an excellent overview of what Tent of Nations is all about and explains their principles and objectives that include: 1. We refuse to be victims. 2. We refuse to hate 3. We live with our faith. 4. We believe in justice. The Tent of Nation's motto is "We Refuse To Be Enemies." (Photo: In one of his presentations in Arizona, Daoud Nassar points to the Tent of Nations on a map that shows how it is surrounded by Israeli settlements [in blue]. The Israeli separation wall goes deep into Palestinian territory and will eventually cut off the Tent of Nations and other Palestinian land from the nearby Palestinian city of Bethlehem.) Daoud's tour in Arizona was sponsored by Friends of Tent of Nations, North America: http://fotonna.org/
