Amnesty: Jeff Halper Public Talk, Dublin

Leading Israeli human rights activist speaks at public talk in Dublin

Amnesty International Irish Section, Trócaire and the Irish Centre for Human Rights host:

Jeff Halper, leading Israeli human rights activist

For thirty years Jeff Halper has been one of the leading figures in the Israeli peace movement. Co-founder and Director of the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions. He has just published a new book, “An Israeli in Palestine: Resisting Dispossession, Redeeming Israel”.

Jeff Halper is credited with pioneering the use of nonviolent action and civil disobedience to resist the Israeli policy of demolishing Palestinian homes and mobilizing international support to rebuild these houses. Since 1967 18,000 Palestinian homes have been demolished in the Occupied Territories in violation of international law.

‘’In all the coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict the courageous work of the Israeli peace movement rarely gets the attention it deserves,” said Amnesty International Irish Section Executive Director Colm O’Gorman. Jeff Halper and Israeli peace activists like him have chosen to stand with oppressed Palestinian communities in a common struggle to achieve a just peace between Israelis and Palestinians based on human rights and equality.

His visit to Ireland is an opportunity for people to learn more about what conditions are like for Palestinians whose homes are destroyed as a form of collective punishment or to clear space for illegal Israeli settlements. It is also a rare chance to hear the point of view of Israelis who are opposing their government’s actions. During his visit he will be speaking at a number of public meetings around the country, including Dublin:

Tuesday 3 June: Royal Dublin Hotel, O’Connell Street, Dublin. 7.30pm.

All are welcome; admission free.
