1 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/27/2014 (Rabbi Dr.) Susan Einbinder 05/21/2014 (The Rev.) Gary E. End the occupation now! Doupe 05/25/2014 A. Greg Danielson In march 2011 I joined 15 Muslims and Christians to plant olive trees at the Tent of Nations. I realized they wouldn't bear fruit for 5-6 years, but that once they started to produce, they would provide olive oil for hundreds of years. I call on you protest the action of the Israeli government and to hold the government accountable to the rule of law 05/21/2014 A. Loikow This kind of devastation is illegal and outrageous and has been going on for years. I'm embarrassed that US Gov't Policy supports Israeli actions like these. 05/21/2014 Aaron Kay Smith This is among the most blatant and profound crimes against humanity we have seen. Anyone who has met Daoud and witnessed his decades of struggle for justice for all concerned regardless of ethnicity is today heartbroken and mourning. He is a follower of the Hebrew prophet Micah: 'What does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?' I do not know what faith tradition guides the Israelis ... 05/23/2014 abbas bolurfrushan When are we going to start to support peace projects? I am devastated by these news. Please use your influence to support justice being served and the Nassar family being reimbursed for the damage done. 05/22/2014 Abby Yanow I urge you to put more pressure on the government of Israel to stop this illegal, inhumane and evil actions against Daher's Vineyard near Bethlehem. The Tent of Nations is a very popular tourist destination for Christians from all around the world. The Nassar family has territorial rights to the land dating back to the Ottoman time. This needless violence must stop. In its own way it akin the present situation in Nigeria, except the pressure by the Israeli Press to cover up such destruction has blinded the world to such cruelty. I pray that something be done to stop this needless destruction. Pastor Obed Nelson 05/24/2014 Abdessalam Diab 05/23/2014 Abdul Hafiz Murthuza resolving this conflict is the key to PEACE in the Middle East 05/23/2014 Abe Qutub Israeli treatment of landowners is not much worse than nazi treatment of them 05/22/2014 Abigail Harms Please begin with one act of human kindness and leave them to their farm. 05/30/2014 Abigail Heimach Justice will be served for all people of faith and nonviolent. 05/22/2014 Abla Nasir Outrageous! 05/27/2014 abu umar bosanwi 05/30/2014 Adam Estle 05/22/2014 Adam Joseph I visited and stayed overnight at the Tent of NATIONS. These people present no threat to Israel and only want to exist. Salisbury 05/22/2014 Adam Lautman 05/21/2014 Adam Sher Please acknowledge and respond to this incident, and the many similar incidents that are ongoing. 05/30/2014 Addison Bross This family deserves to be allowed to live on their land without harassment! 05/22/2014 adela idilbi 05/30/2014 Adela Medlock We Vermonters would be appalled if the government came in and tried to do the same to our farm(s). 05/30/2014 Adrienne Fong 05/21/2014 Agnes O'Hanlon 05/24/2014 Ahmed Sakkal Please act on this horrible situation. 05/23/2014 Ahsen Abbasi 05/30/2014 Aine Daly I am alarmed and saddened by this injustice.The oppression suffered by Jews should have taught Israelis not to be so cruel. 05/27/2014 akın atauz 05/27/2014 Alan Bentz-Letts 2 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/25/2014 Alan E. Mayers I can see no justification for the destruction of the Nassar family's land and crops. That family may 'refuse to be enemies' but Israel is certainly acts as an enemy of the worst kind - not owning their own illegal destruction. 05/21/2014 Alan Miller The world needs to know what Israel has done. It is despicable that people are being deprived of their livelihood and it is being done intentionally! 05/21/2014 Alan P. Goldstein As an Israel-American, any decision by the Israeli military to violate rights is deplorable. To do so to those Palestinian institutions most dedicated to peace and reconciliation is self-destructive and warrants the intervention of Israel's closest friend and ally. 05/26/2014 Alan Pyeatt The Israeli Army's action against the Tent of Nations Farm and Peace Center is an unconscionable horror against human rights. The Daoud Nasser Family has lived on their farm not only as productive members of society but as generous contributors to peace and outreach to their Muslim neighbors. My fears are great for the demise of democracy within Israel and, for the destruction of this model family and farm. Please respond strongly against this action of the Israeli government against the Nassers and speak and act forcefully for the restoration of the land and trees to the Tent of Nations. REspectfully, Rev. Nancy S. Hildebrand 05/23/2014 Albert asfour 05/24/2014 Albert H. Mayfield 05/25/2014 Aldo iacobelli It is high time Israel joined the civilized nations and behaved according to international law 05/28/2014 alejandro issel 05/22/2014 Alex Bell 05/21/2014 Alex Elias Awad 05/21/2014 Alexander Shaw PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! I have met Daoud Nassar & last Jan. visited the farm. These are people who refuse to use violence to keep what is theirs. They refuse to be enemies of the Israelis. This is shameful & I am outraged. STOP sending my tax dollars to the Israeli government to fund this kind of violence perpetrated against my friends at the Nassar Farm. 05/23/2014 Alfred Donald Cross 05/27/2014 Alfred Gerteiny 05/24/2014 Alice and Richard Leuchtag 05/21/2014 Alice Diane Kisch This action against a law abiding peaceful family is an affront to all justice loving people. Some governmental action by Israel should try to make amends. 05/21/2014 Alice Faryna 05/30/2014 Alice Hickcox Anyone who destroys the property of human rights supporters like the Lassers is aiding unrest and discontent as opposed to partnership and peace for the good of all and the future of Israel. 05/22/2014 Alice Kast I visited this land in January, 2012. I was moved by the persistence of the Nasser family to save family land in a peaceful way. There is no justice here. 05/22/2014 Alice M Justice This cannot be allowed to continue without comment and for the United States to condone these violations of human rights and callous disregard for International Law and the Geneva Convention. 05/22/2014 alice mae graner Please end this atrocious, illegal and unwarranted harassment. 05/22/2014 Alice Rothchild I have followed the story of the Tent of Nations for years and now weep at the viciousness of the Israeli military in violation of the rights of a peaceful and peace pursuing family. This action is worse than harassment. It's brutality. It must be censured and the family orchards restored to productivity. 05/23/2014 Alice Schafer 05/22/2014 Alice Siegfried We recommend immediate action if we believe in JUSTICE 05/29/2014 Alice Vernon 05/27/2014 Alice Zachmann Freedom will not die! Free Palestine!!!!!!! 05/22/2014 Alice Zillah 05/24/2014 Alisa Booze Troetschel 3 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Alison Hill I visited Tent of Nations in November 2012 and was deeply moved by the Nassar family's commitment to sustainable agriculture, respect for the environment, and commitment to peace and nonviolence. The bulldozing of their orchards and grapevines is an outrage and will appall all persons of conscience across the globe who become aware of it - as many well because of the international campaign underway. I urge the U.S. government to cease military aid to Israel until these attacks on human rights and contravention of international law stop. 05/23/2014 Alison Weir 05/28/2014 Allen L. Wortman The illegal actions toward the confiscation of lands owned by Palestinians must stop. Israel must establish safe and secure borders and live within them. Palestinians must be allowed self-determination and safe and secure borders as well. the violation of international law and human rights standards by all parties must stop. Yours, Mary G Holt 05/21/2014 Allen Roehl Peace in this world requires all of us to do unto others.... 05/22/2014 Alma Manney 05/22/2014 Alta Schwartz 05/22/2014 Alvin Compaan 05/22/2014 amado subh subh Shame on the Israeli government - your actions belie your rhetoric about being a democracy. 05/27/2014 Amanda Chandler 05/22/2014 Amanda Cohen 05/23/2014 Amos Gvirtz 05/23/2014 Amy Alpert 05/28/2014 Amy Ferrara I have friends who's children have gone to Israel/Palestine to live in a settlement. They will receive free housing, job training and a monthly stipend for coming to Israel/Palestine. This to me is immoral. 05/22/2014 Amy K Higgs 05/27/2014 Amy Paige It is a shame that the world has turned a blind eye to the Palestinian plight. 05/23/2014 Amy Williams 05/21/2014 Amy Wilson 05/23/2014 anam el-jabali This is a flagrant violation of human rights and the rule of law in the Occupied Territories that demands a strong response from the United States. 05/23/2014 Anat Matar Please stand on the right side of history & fully support the Nassar family & their Tent of Nations Peace Project by loudly & publicly condemning the outrageous destruction & death at the hands of Israel's apartheid policies. We Americans are funding these acts of violence & violations of international law. We can start to remove the blood on our hands by ending ALL military aid to Israel. 05/22/2014 Anders Hagglin I support the Nassars in their integrity. 05/22/2014 Andrea Lin Dedmon The Nassar family/Tent of Nations are peacemakers! 05/23/2014 Andrea Paret 05/26/2014 Andrea Petersen When is the United States government going to stop supporting Israeli brutality and begin to present a fair and reasonable approach to the Palestinians? 05/26/2014 Andrea Wenger 05/22/2014 Andrea Whitmore This is written in support of the Nassar Family and their Tent of Nations Peace Project. They are engaged in a peaceful solution to a critical need. They have my full support. 05/23/2014 Andrés Steinmetz 05/21/2014 Andrew Cornell 4 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Andrew Courtney 05/21/2014 Andrew Griswold Because I underwrote a tree when I visited the farm in March 2011, I protest in the stongest of terms the destruction of any trees on the farm by this unwarranted and illegal act. The family has deeds to this land going back to Ottoman times. When is the destruction of the land going to stop? I call on the State of Israel and its military to make immediate reparation, replant all trees that were destroyed, and restore each and every dunam of the farm land to arable condition. Now it is not only the Nasser family, but so many people around the world who are bonded to this land through the trees they have underwritten. Israel is most unwise to risk the outrage of so many of us who have visited the farm, and feel strongly that we are also its stakeholders. Through this farm and the Nasser family, we maintain our living connection to this holy land. 'To it the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord; from the ends of the earth and from all nations they shall come to give honor to his holy name.' Hear, O Israel, and consider: the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. You have been appointed simply to be stewards, and not masters. 05/27/2014 andrew kurban The arrogance of the Israeli military with the deliberate and unlawful destruction of a family's livelihood on land that is theirs shows a terrible ugliness and injustice. 05/26/2014 Andrew Miller So many long for food and for peace. Why this wanton destruction? Can it bring you peace? I will pray that your misunderstanding will be transformed into right understanding. May you be free from suffering, may you be at peace. 05/24/2014 Andrew Paul Gutierrez

05/27/2014 Andrew Politzer 05/24/2014 Andrew Warren 05/21/2014 Andrew Whitworth I have visited the Tent of Nations farm and project. This action by the Israeli military is particularly egregious, insofar as the Nasser family's ownership of their land has been held time and again by Israeli courts to be completely legal, and their effort to resist encroachment has been totally peaceful. If any such action by Israeli authorities and military forces warrants special intervention by the office of a US president at the state to state level, this does. 05/23/2014 Angela Godfrey- We are horrified by the aggressive action of Israeli military to destroy fruit trees in order to confiscate land. Goldstein 05/22/2014 Angela Megna 05/23/2014 Angela Perdue 05/22/2014 Angela Tedder When will this aggression against common, everyday civilians STOP? We were told after WW II 'Never Forget.' Now the 'oppressed' have become the 'OPPRESSOR!' 05/22/2014 Angela Zimmann, Ph.D.

05/30/2014 Angelica Harter I am appalled by this wanton destruction of private property and fruit bearing trees by the Israeli Military, in an effort to expand illegal settlements and destroy efforts at building peace. 05/26/2014 Angelika Schneider 05/22/2014 angelo douvos 05/28/2014 Angus Mathieson I have been a visitor to Daher's Vineyard in 2006. An amazing and beautiful farm with a larger mission 05/23/2014 Anis Racy 05/26/2014 Anita Fonseca 05/22/2014 Anke Goetz I have signed this petition to show my support for all the Palestinians who face this injustice every day from the thugs of idf Zionist gangs 05/30/2014 Ann A. White Let us work for peace. 5 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/26/2014 Ann Clune I was deeply saddened to hear about the destruction of the Nassar family crops, and the action of the Israeli military. I have just returned from a meeting of the B.C. Conference of the United Church of Canada, where a group of us have informed that part of the church (about 450 people in attendance) about the destruction. We call upon the Israeli government to act honourably and compensate the Nassar family for this needless act of aggression. 05/24/2014 Ann D. Taylor Enough is Enough with destroying these Israeli farm families lives with destruction of their means of living. These are peaceful neighbors and they need our international support of saying NO to this violent means to the families and to God's creation. 05/30/2014 Ann Dolinko 05/23/2014 Ann H. Weimer 05/27/2014 Ann Lewis The Tent of Nations is the truly remarkable work of faithful Christian witness in Palestine. What Israel has done is inexcusable. 05/21/2014 Ann Marie Allen 05/26/2014 Ann Marie Judson 05/29/2014 Ann Read We visited Tent of Nations 2 years ago on a pilgrimage with our church. We were impressed with the work these people were doing in pursuit of peace in the region and we were struck by their efforts to maintain and cultivate their land. They had done all that was needed to prove their rightful ownership. This attack by the Israeli government is yet another example of the atrocious injustices we observed being perpetrated on the Palestinian people.

I shudder to think that our government continues to support such actions. Please take this opportunity to speak out in protest and demand restitution for this family and many others who have suffered silently.

Joni Dray 05/23/2014 Ann Ulmschneider 05/21/2014 Ann Welly We pray for you, your family , your message by refusing to be enemies. We continue to pray for the End of the 46 year Israeli military occupation overPalestine. 05/30/2014 anna scott 05/22/2014 Anna Shenk This is an abhorant action and I gladly add my name to alert others to the illegal actions by the Israeli government action. 05/27/2014 Annaita Gandhy ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. It is time to stop the apartheid against the Palestinian people and demand accountability by the Israeli government. 05/24/2014 anne arseneault In May 2007 I visited the Nassars and the Tent of Nations. I was profoundly touched by the Nassars non-violent struggle to live on the land that is legally theirs under Israeli law. The destruction of their property by the Israeli Military is a tragic example of the harassment and intimidation peace loving Palestinians have suffered under Israeli occupation. For the sake of Israel's future, unjust acts of aggression like the bulldozing of 1500 fruit trees on the Nassar property must be stopped. Please ensure that justice is upheld. 05/30/2014 Anne Barstow It is time to stand up for families who are trying to live for peace, on their own land. 05/23/2014 Anne Bracket 05/23/2014 Anne L. Deneen 05/23/2014 Anne Martin 05/23/2014 Anne Olivo 05/25/2014 Anne Schlesinger 05/26/2014 Anne Wagener I visited Tent of Nations as a U.S. college student in 2010 and am appalled by this violation of international law by Israel. 05/23/2014 Anne Weissenborn 05/22/2014 Anne-Marie Codur 05/23/2014 annelien kisch-kroon I know the work of Tent of Nations and have hosted Daoud Nassar in my home after his speaking at University United Methodist Church in Syracuse. He and his work for peace are worthy of our help and stands for a just solution of this problem immediately! 6 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Annelissa Gray-Lion Let us be bridge builders. Keep Tent of Nations in the Nassar family. 05/23/2014 Annemarie Jacobs 05/24/2014 Annette Herskovits 05/23/2014 Annette Lengyel Seriously, how can we as a nation support these criminal activities of the Israeli Military? As an active U.S. Christian I don't see how this kind of destruction of a family's orchards and vineyards is humane or just. You will start seeing more of us protest here against Israeli actions like this by divesting of our interests in companies that support Israel. 05/21/2014 Annette Stixrud I am shocked and very sad at this cowardly and illegal attack on the Tent of Nations. Please make Israel stop their policies of discrimination, intimidation and gross injustice against Palestinians. There is no excuse for this behavior. None. 05/22/2014 Annette Tetreault We are heartsick to learn of this assault. We visited Tent of Nations several years ago and planted olive trees in honor of our grandchildren and in hopes of Lawing a peaceful productive future for Palestinians 05/22/2014 AnnSofi Danielsson 05/23/2014 Anthony Ainslie 05/21/2014 Anthony Clarence Carmichael 05/23/2014 Anthony Gratrex As Peace with Justice Coordinator of the Holston Conference of the United Methodist Church I encourage you to investigate this matter and seek justice for the Nassar family and the Tent of Nations. 05/21/2014 Anthony Peck Stop apartheid in Israel!!! 05/28/2014 Antoinette Byda 05/24/2014 Antonia Salpeter 05/23/2014 António Mota Redol Our government and the EU sits back while all of this takes place. As a Jewish American,I strongly oppose these actions by the Israeli government 05/23/2014 Antonios Karraz In a time that food is rare and missing at the tables of so many people, to crush the plantation is really a big crime. 05/23/2014 Any Sulluvan Every human deserves basic human rights and justice. 05/27/2014 April Beckler 05/30/2014 April Leese This kind of activity must come to an immediate halt. Honor the commitment to non-violence in any form! The Tent of Nations must be compensated for this tragic attack on life and property. 05/23/2014 Arba Lynn Kenner May the principles of peace and friendship enter the hearts of my Israeli brothers and sisters. Peace and justice is the only long term solution. Violence does not work. 05/28/2014 Ardis Chapman 05/24/2014 Aref massoud 05/29/2014 Arlene Carroll 05/27/2014 ARLENE COULTER 05/24/2014 Arlene Scully 05/22/2014 Arnetta Jones 05/23/2014 Arnie Voigt Those of us who know and love Tent of Nations are appalled by the recent incursion by the IDF into that West Bank property with the purpose of eventually acquiring that property to complete a ring of illegal settlements that surround it. Israel has been harassing the Nassar farm for decades to the above end. Similar events are occurring all over the West Bank, some less newsworthy, many much worse, even deadly. It is time to let Israel know that the US will withdraw both political and financial support from it until it ends these illegal attempts to acquire Palestinian property. NB: that the IDF is the world's most moral military is garbage believed only by those who have never scrutinized its behavior toward the Palestinians. Read up! 05/25/2014 Arnold J. Voigt I have been at the Tent of Nations for several times in the years 2010 and 2011, planting trees and joining peoples life. This project and the people living there are near to my heart. 7 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Arthur Alpert I am sorry for this families suffering. 05/29/2014 Arthur H Dorland 05/22/2014 Arthur H.

Make PEACE, not destruction! 05/21/2014 Barb Colvin There certainly is no moral justification for destroying this farm or continuing to take land and resources away from the Palestinian people! 05/23/2014 Barbara It was never truthfully acceptable and is now not even socially or politically acceptable to support Israel in its devastating actions against Palastine. It is not a balanced issue with two sides to the argument the way the press claims and it is clearly not a victimized Israel the way our government claims. History will remember Obama as a hero if he steps in and as a yet another pawn if he does not. I am a 28 year old Progressive and I voted for Obama with trepidation...I will be paying attention to anyone brave enough to voice their dissent of Israel's apartheid-like actions. 05/23/2014 Barbara and Jim Dale 05/27/2014 Barbara Ann I know Daoud personally , he and his family are so very nice and dont deserve this TERRORISM !!!

The destruction of the fruit trees was a terrible injustice. 05/22/2014 Barbara Gregg 05/22/2014 Barbara Grossman We are outraged at this latest episode of Israeli bullying and destruction of Palestinian land, which in this case has been in the family for centuries, and are also dismayed that our government continues to subsidize this immoral and unethical regime and to defend it in the United Nations. 05/24/2014 Barbara Hanst 05/24/2014 Barbara Hynes 05/24/2014 BARBARA JOYCE It is obvious Israel wants no peace.

No one is excluded. It is sheer evil that is a destructive force to God's earth and families. In the name of humanity, please help end the violence. 05/28/2014 Barbara Peter Please allow this family to live on their rightfully owned land, in peace. 05/24/2014 Barbara R Rossing Please stand up for justice for the Nassar family, and its right to grow food on its own land. 05/23/2014 Barbara Roberts 05/23/2014 Barbara Snell This is an act of war against people committed to peace. The tent of nations should be respected as a token of peaceful coexistence. 05/23/2014 barbara Spoerl The treatment of this family, and their friends, is horrific. I don't want my tax dollars paying for these Apartheid-like actions by the rightist Israeli government. 05/22/2014 Barbara W. Dean The tragedy of the trees being destroyed and the family being a peaceful and just family must be condemned. 05/22/2014 Barbara Walston 05/24/2014 Barbara Whitehair These are state sanctioned unethical actions that mock the concept of Gods Justice. You should be ashamed of the effect on your actions on the conscience of your people. There is no excuse for your actions. 05/22/2014 Barbara Whitmore The rampant destruction of Palestinian homes and farms in the occupied territories has become intolerable. I am also concerned, especially, of settler contamination of the, already, limited water supply allowed by Israel. WATER is so important to the agricultural life of the Palestinians. This is the Israeli process of ethnic cleansing which the USA is supporting through billions in aid and diplomatic avenues. Our shame will come back to haunt us!!! 05/21/2014 Barbara Wien No country that wants peace would do omething like this. Israel must be punished 05/23/2014 bargas hatem I spent two days at Tent of Nations last year and made a donation to have a tree planted. Daoud Nasser is peace loving man trying to prevent his family' s land from being taken by the Israeli government. He has been fighting for his rights in the Israeli courts. His family has documents showing a chain of title to his land for close to 100 years. The unconscionable act of destroying the fruit trees and grape vineyards on his land needs to be severely punished. 05/23/2014 Barry M Watson 05/23/2014 Bassam M.A. El-Borno We say we are for peace and then do nothing when Israel trys to destroy those working for peace. As a retired senior U.S. Foreign Service Officer with long experience in the Middle East, I ask that the U.S. government do something to stop this. 05/23/2014 Bavi Rivera 05/23/2014 Beatrice Kirby It is high time to hold Israel to account for its criminal treatment of the Palestinian people. 05/22/2014 Beatrice Ortiz 05/26/2014 Becky Erb Strang 05/24/2014 Belle McMaster 05/23/2014 Ben Kroup Equal rights respect fairness non-violence 05/22/2014 Ben Rosenthal I sign this petition. 05/31/2014 Benjamin Carl Snipes 05/21/2014 Benneth Husted To destroy the fruit trees is truly savagery against creation and life. 05/26/2014 berkeley L.

Please help! 05/22/2014 bernadene zennie I planted 5 trees on the Nassar family farm in 2008. It saddens me greatly to hear that their property is being destroyed. Enough is enough! Stop building illegal settlements and taking over the water access to Palestinians!! 05/28/2014 Bernadette Cronin- Geller 05/23/2014 bernard canavan This act of violence perpetrated on this family's farm is an outrageous breach of justice perpetrated against a family who simply want to live and work on their land peacefully. 9 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/28/2014 Bernard Delorey We cannot condone this barbaric and illegal action by the Israeli military.

The inhumane actions conducted against the Tent of Nations peoples - against the people in the West Bank - is beyond inconceivable and highly immoral. Please help those being aggressed against in the West Bank. 05/25/2014 Betty Likis It is absolute sickening to read and hear, what under the Isaeli occupation is done on a daily base to the Palestinian people. And there is no one that can take the initiative to stop these crimes and accuse the Israeli government in the international court in Genève? 05/22/2014 Betty Anne McCoy This is NOT reflective of the policies of a 'democracy'. The Nassar family has deeds going back to the Ottoman era. T^here is NO excuse for the continued land theft on the occupied territories. 05/29/2014 Betty Cobb-Colgan 05/29/2014 Betty Dorothy This action by Israel is appalling. It is past time that the USA stop rubber stamping Israel's decisions regarding Palestinian rights and property ownership.

You have the power to intervene and I ask you to do so on behalf of American cirizens. 05/24/2014 Beverly Hunter we need to do something about the firm that makes those bulldozers.

05/23/2014 brenda barnard What will it take for my beloved country, the United States of America, and our President and Congress, to stand up for basic human fairness and basic human dignity, which they profess to as representatives of the people of our land. This attack and destruction of private property is the last straw. I actually know this beautiful, peaceful family from Christmas Lutheran Church and they are devastated by this action. Please, please stand behind 'our constitution' and step into this. You are certainly aware, as are all US voters, that Israel would never do these types of destructive action without the eye of the US leadership turning and not looking or responding. Please help. 05/25/2014 Brenda C. Holliday Shame on Israel, which wants to be seen as a democracy and a civilized place. This report indicates that Israel's Military Authorities have not followed either Israel's law that no demolition or evacuation should proceed once an appeal is in process and Israel's Supreme Court declaration that the Nassar family should continue with re-registering their ownership of the land. 05/23/2014 Brenda Carpenter 05/23/2014 BREZOT André 05/22/2014 Brian This broke my heart. I've been to the Tent of Nations and seen how the family makes real what they believe. This is a modern day example of Biblical/Nazi- era oppression. 05/21/2014 Brian Duss 05/22/2014 Brian E.

I visited the Tent of Nations last November bringing a gift from my church to encourage the Nasser brothers in their work of conservation and recycling. 05/24/2014 Brother Robert Lentz, This recent and cruel destruction of invaluable fruit trees on the land of the Nassar family is illegal and immoral. It makes a mockery of Israel's claim to be a O.F.M. highly functioning democracy where laws are respected and the rights of all citizens are protected. I have met Daoud Nassar and heard his account of the history of his ancestors' use of the land over many generations. He is a Christian who is deeply committed to nonviolence and who has lived out his faith and his ethics in a truly remark-able way in the face of systemic violence intended to make him and his family leave the land they love, legally own and have used wisely for many generations. It is but another tragic example of the illegal expansion of Israel on the West Bank that is the primary cause that repeated efforts to make peace between Israelis and Palestinians have failed. It saddens me more than I can say. Jean Martensen 05/24/2014 Bruce & Faith What a sad event. Let's us pary for Peace. Bonecutter 05/27/2014 Bruce C Dubey What has happened to the Nassar family is a blatant injustice and moral travesty. 05/22/2014 Bruce DeLaney This destruction was totally unnecessary and avoidable. What does Israel require of Palestinians? 05/25/2014 Bruce France As a personal friend of the Nassar family over many years, I can attest to their ongoing and deeply principled actions to bring about peace and reconciliation within their local Israeli/Palestinian context. The sign painted on a stone by the entrance to their farm says it very simply . . . in Arabic, English, and German: 'We refuse to be enemies.' This family deserves the full support of the US government in their search for justice vis-a-vis their land, their (newly destroyed) trees and grapevines, and in their ongoing efforts to bring about reconciliation between Israelis and Palestinians. I urge President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry to take prompt and potent action to redress the injustices that have been enacted against the Nassar family. 05/21/2014 Bruce Norman Fisk No one who examines the facts in this case in good faith can excuse this wanton destruction. 05/24/2014 Bruce O'Brien This is a travesty and a vicious violation of God's earth. 05/21/2014 Bruce Radtke 05/22/2014 Bryan A.

Let it begin with me. 05/29/2014 C Kleymeyer After 4 trips to Israel and Occupied Palestine since 2008 I am increasingly dismayed at my country's support of Israel and its clear disregard for Israel's violation of human rights. I am also a Christian supporting the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem which supports a number of schools, clinics and hospitals in Israel, Occupied Palestine, Gaza and Jordan. Israel's message that Christians are well treated is a blatant lie made obvious by actions like the recent destruction of the orchards in the Christian Tent of Nations. This was solely for the purpose of making room to expand nearby settlements. 05/25/2014 C. Virginia Finn 05/22/2014 Calum McDonald 05/21/2014 Calvin Cabell Tennis 05/22/2014 Cameron Bonner We visited the people that try to farm there and were impressed by their work for peace. It is obvious that they are 'in the way' of settlement building as there are settlements on surrounding hill tops. 05/23/2014 Carl Alexander The eyes of the world are on Israel's actions, not to mention the all-seeing eyes of the Creator. 12 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/24/2014 Carl Freeman Israel has been using illegal methods to confiscate desirable land for decades. Why is this action tolerated by the U.S. Government? Is there no way that we can urge them to stop with their (often violent) land takeovers? Besides being illegal, this is ethically wrong and adds fuel to the fire of terrorists who use these actions to support their notion of the U.S. as the 'great enemy'. 05/22/2014 Carl Holland I will never forget my visit to the Tent of Nations in May 2012. What loving, caring people the Nassars are in spite if the many atrocities they have suffered. And now this! Absolutely unbelievable. Please do everything in your power to see that justice is done! 05/27/2014 Carl Scala 05/22/2014 Carl Schieren The dignity of all humans should be respected. The ability of a family to farm land that they own must be respected for a civil society. 05/22/2014 Carla Burres It is an outrage to harm peaceful venues. 05/24/2014 Carla DeSola Eaton How sad it was to hear of the bulldozing of the wonderful, farm of the Nassar family, the Tent of Nations Peace Project. I worked in Palestine for a time and saw bulldozers bulldozing ripe plum trees at Beit Omar, not far from this same location. The horror of this illegal and inhumane act shows how much the Israeli is willing to do to destroy Palestinian life and livelihood. The acts of Israel against the Palestinian people should be brought to the International Criminal Court. 05/21/2014 Carla Henebry 05/27/2014 Carlos Wilton Friends of Sabeel: North America stands with you and may justice be served and Tent of Nations receive reparations for this outrageous action. 05/23/2014 Carlos Yantorno How can we let Israel get away with such behaviour?

This occupation must end. Peace must prevail through justice. 05/22/2014 Carol Luidens I call the state of Israel and it's armed forces to respect Palestinian property and live, just as jewish. Otherwise Israel cannot be respected member of free nations. Segretation must stop and those who build bridges, like the Nassar family must be respected, those who sew hatred, like radical violent settlers must be called to respect law or must be punished 05/24/2014 carol murry On 29th April we visited the Nassar family and were deeply impressed - and now this - it's a shame! 05/23/2014 Carol Natella 05/23/2014 Carol quinn And I thought Israeli tactics were as low as they could be, until this. Such cowards! Such cruel and mean spirited people. 05/28/2014 Carol Trevathan 05/23/2014 Carol Waser Eliminate the unjust with pen or gun. 05/23/2014 Carole Kersten 05/22/2014 Carole Powell It is my understanding that the Nassar family has done everything possible to comply with the law--and they have done it through the courts, peacefully. How can the Israeli military take matters into their own hands when their own legal system says they have to wait?

What Israel has done to this family and their farm is the height of injustice, illegality under all domestic and international law, and a crime against humanity. The United States should cease all financial support of Israel immediately pending reparations for the harm it has done to this property and an Israeli commitment to let Tent of Nations live in peace. 05/21/2014 Cathryn Surgenor Apartheid is to weak a word for this atrocity! 05/26/2014 Cathryn T Surgenor The fact that the Israeli army took this action on the eve of the Pope's visit is a clear sign that the government is indifferent to the concerns of the world's Christians. 05/22/2014 Cathy Barich When will these destructive attacks end? 05/27/2014 Cathy Rowan I agree 06/01/2014 Celeste M Howard For too long the Palestinians have been under the yoke of oppression.

I urge world leadership Whitfield to speak out loudly against the violation of human rights which is endemic in the policies and actions Israel vis a vis the Palestinian people. 05/21/2014 Christy Wise U.S. should stop financial support of Israel when it does such outrageous acts. 05/26/2014 Chuck Donegan Israel, have you no sense of right and wrong? 05/26/2014 Chuck Steinbach I am begging you to use your influence to stop the occupation of Palestine and the oppression of the people! 05/25/2014 Cilla Lynch 05/26/2014 Cindi Dillard 05/30/2014 Cindy Shamban I've been to the Tent of Nations, and am saddened and angered at the actions of the Israeli military against them. 05/22/2014 Claire Graham 05/22/2014 Claire Schaeffer-Duffy 05/22/2014 Clark Ashamed and saddened to hear that any human beings could participate in such destructive behavior. 05/23/2014 Clark C.

I met the Nassar family and learned about the work they are doing towards peace in Israel and Palestine.

I will support any economic sanctions against Israel for their action. 05/24/2014 Cornelia van Thiel We have visited Daoud Nasser at the Tent of Nations farm and found the best of humanity in Daoud and the volunteers at the farm.

The destruction of their fruit trees and grapevines is an attack on humanity and on the environment and is an outrage that offends anyone without a conscience. 05/30/2014 Courtney S Petersen 05/27/2014 Craig Berman 06/01/2014 Cressida Lui I am outraged at the Israeli injustice in the destruction on the property of the Nassar family on May 19, 2014. I have visited the Tent of Nations and know this family to be peace loving and no threat to Israel. Their message of love continues to out weigh the destruction perpetrated by Israel. 05/23/2014 Cris Larson As a American we need to condone and help the Tent of Nations and require the Israel to make amends and refrain from further damage to people. 05/23/2014 Cristina Malcolmson Please use your influence to stop the Palestinian injustices 05/22/2014 Crystal Zevon Apartheid/apart-hate enforced by the Military ofIsraeli Government cannot/must not be justified or tolerated, or supported by our tax $$$, making the US complicit in atrocities againstPeacemakers 05/21/2014 Cynthia Beardslee Please take seriously the injustices being done at daoud nasser's farm. 05/22/2014 Cynthia Briggs Speak out and support these Palestian peacemakers.

This Christian family has documented ownership of the land since the Ottoman Empire, and are a great force working for peace, tolerance, and cooperation - Christian, Jewish, and Muslim.

They are surrounded by Israeli settlements and now Israel dares to attack them. For Israel to trespass on private land and destroy almost 2000 fruit bearing trees is outrageous and unacceptable.

Cowles I have not previously been acquainted with the Tent of Nations situation. I cannot understand why the Israeli military took action while an appeal was pending. I do know that the Nassar property is in Area C and adjacent to Israeli settlements. It is not unreasonable to think that the purpose in taking the land is to allow more land for the settlements, which are viewed by virtually all the world as illegal under international law. Because I know that members of Mr. Netanyahu's governing coalition have recently called for Israel's annexation of Area C, I also suspect that the actions taken in this matter are part of a larger effort to take as much of Palestinian land as possible before leaving them with no more than a rump, and unviable, political entity in Areas A and B. This is not the way to peace. 05/23/2014 Donald Wayne Turman Please let the Nassar family retain their structures and live in peace.

After visiting the Tent of Nations just weeks ago, I was deeply saddened to hear of the recent demolitions by the IDF. This community was one with the mission of waging peace in the face of war, and the demolition of this project is detrimental for the Nasser family, for those who benefited from the Tent of Nations programs, and is ultimately detrimental to the peace process. To the United States Government and Government Officials, I would like to remind you of your role as a broker, and plead you to live up to the ideal of acting as an 'honest broker.' While the pull of American public opinion in their support of Israel is great, this conflict has gone on for too long, and has claimed too many lives, to merit the United States' unconditional support of Israel. If the two state solution is in fact what you seek, then Israel's continuing intrenchment in the Palestinian territories through settlement building and the building of the Separation Wall is only detrimental in setting up Palestine for success as a viable state. Thank you, and I again request your assistance in coming to the aid of the Nasser family and the Tent of Nations on behalf of peace for the Palestinians, Israelis and the entire international community.

I just visited Israel and Palestine for the first time. I was struck by the beauty of the land, the great sense of history, by how precious this place is to so many people. I also saw the settlements, on the prime land on hilltops, in what is Palestinian territory. Rich, new developments in the midst of poverty. I saw the 'fence.' The settlements are bad for the Palestinians and bad for the Israelis. They are maintained at the cost of peace and morality. I have just learned of the Tent of Nations farm. I applaud what the family there is doing - building relationships between people regardless of religion and history. It would be a tragedy if this project is destroyed.

I truly am left wondering whether ordinary Israelis know of such actions as destroying family farms that have been owned for generations. Maybe however that is just wishful thinking out of my love for many Israeli friends and family. 05/23/2014 Dr. Madlon T. Laster 05/24/2014 Dr. Nancy E. Boyer Oppression of peaceful Palestinian people will not bring peace to Israel. Please act on behalf of justice. 05/25/2014 Dr. Roger C.

WAKE UP, USA 05/21/2014 Ed Averill Israel's illegal and immoral actions against the Nassar family are emblematic of Israel's actions through out the Occupied Territories. Given the United States' financial and uncritical political support of Israel, the United States and we are linked to these actions. This must stop. 05/30/2014 Ed Crouch 05/23/2014 ED SACCO Why react with the sword to the Nassar family's work of peace? This goes against the very core of what Torah & Talmud teach us! 05/23/2014 Ed Wright 05/25/2014 Edda Meyer zu Uptrup 27 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/21/2014 Eddie Brooks It's a crime against people and against the life of trees. I am happy that Jews can live in their own country, but please let the Palestinians live and work on their own piece of ground. This destruction doesn't solve any problem but creates them. 05/26/2014 Edie Nebel 05/26/2014 Edison Casado If Americans were really friends of Israel, we wouldn't enable their theft of Palestinian land and resources, and denial of their right to self-government. Instead, we would encourage them to respect everyone's right to life, liberty, and property. 05/22/2014 Edith Cacciatore We stand with the Nassar Family in staying on their land and cultivate their land despite intimidation and harassment. 05/23/2014 Edith Collins How sad that such destruction against the peaceful Palestinians is allowed to happen without reprecussions on the Israeli government & military. Sad Sad 05/28/2014 Edna Arthurs 05/24/2014 Edna L. Williams 05/21/2014 Edward and Phyllis Israeli policy towards Palestinians is precipitating world condemnation.

We have lost our credibility in the Middle East because of inaction to incidents like this. It is time to stand up to the Israeli government and demand that they be accountable for actions such as this. Thank you. 05/21/2014 Elaine Brouillard I have personally visited Tent of Nations and hosted Daoud Nassar in my home. He is truly committed to non-violence and living in peace. It is reprehensible that the Israeli government illegally seizes Palestinian land and destroys agriculture. It is imperative that restitution be made to the Nassar family and that Israel ceases its violation of Palestinian human rights. 05/22/2014 Elaine Chorley There has been too much appeasement of the Israeli military aggression for far too long.

McGillicuddy 28 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/21/2014 Elaine Johnson Through the IDF actions at TON, as in countless other places in the West Bank, Israel carries out its clear intention to take the land, with no regard for international law, or even its own Supreme Court rulings. Since this is Area C, Israel makes the law - military law - and the world watches. BDS is a step in the right direction. Israel needs to be held accountable for its immoral actions, and BDS does just that. 05/23/2014 Elaine Marie Kinch 05/21/2014 Elaine Stanislawski This latest action by the Israeli Military is a violation of the Israeli law,fundamental human decency, and brings to mind Hitler and Stalin. The Officer responsible should be court-martialed. 05/26/2014 Elaine Stoltzfus 05/27/2014 Elaine Wiatr 05/21/2014 Eleanor Beth Moore 05/23/2014 Eleanor L Ommani I endorse all that's said in the petition letter. I know friends who have visited and spoken of The Tent of Nations. When will the USA be kind enough to restrain Israel's illegal excesses effectively, with more than words? 05/24/2014 Eleanor Preiss It is an act of terrible sickness to destroy a bearing fruit tree. I weep for the Nassar family and the Tent of Nations. I also weep for the sickness of people who feel threatened by the refusal to be enemies. 05/23/2014 Eleanor Stethers 05/30/2014 Eleanor Wesley 05/23/2014 Elese Sizemore I have visited the Tent of Nations where peace and tranquility prevail. Israel's attack on this family and their land is a travesty and it should be recognised as such by the rest of the civilised world. Now is the time to take action against Israel's state terrorism by placing harsh sanctions against them. 05/26/2014 elgin kreimeyer 05/28/2014 Eliana Horn I protest Israeli military courts actions against the Nassar Family and their tent of nations peace project. Stand up to Israeli agression. 05/23/2014 Elias Memari 05/22/2014 Eliesa Gallo 05/22/2014 Elisabeta Revencu I have spent time on this farm and in no way do they deserve this! 05/24/2014 elisabeth eveleigh Deplore very cruel action against people and trees. 05/22/2014 Elisabeth Simpson 05/26/2014 Elisabeth Trost- This action by the Israelis is just more evidence of that government intent to reduce further the size of Palestine. Shahata 05/21/2014 Elise Goldin I am heartsick at this new crime in Israel's war against the people of Palestine and against International Law. The U.S. should show that it values'liberty and justice for all,' by condemning Israel's crimes and stopping all aid. 05/25/2014 Elise Sauder When people destroy food they commit murder. Check out Exodus 20:13 or Deuteronomy 5:17. These laws handed down to Moses years ago apply the following three religions: Jew, Christian and Islam. 05/27/2014 Elizabeth 05/24/2014 Elizabeth A Cucco 05/24/2014 Elizabeth Aaronsohn 05/23/2014 Elizabeth Barger 05/29/2014 Elizabeth Corrie Why is Israel never held to account for these acts of vandalism and destruction? 05/23/2014 Elizabeth Day Israeli settlements are not neighbors, they are part of the colonization and ethnic cleansing of Palestine. It is they who pose the treat to the 'neighboring' native Palestinian community. Israeli military actions in destroying Tent of Nations land is a symptom of the overall problem. It is well past time to end the problem - the occupation, colonization and ethnic cleansing of Palestine. When Israel recognizes this, when restorative justice is implemented, then people can find real neighbors. It is possible. 29 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/30/2014 Elizabeth Evans ARSON

An evening breeze whispers through the ripe olive grove, “Ashes to ashes.”

Magnificent, thick, twisted trunks, rooted in poor soil, withstanding drought for centuries,

are ignited by settlers, leaving crackling torches in the night,

incinerating an entire crop - tended for generations - forever!

Wind wafts the wailing. 05/27/2014 Elizabeth G Woolever As a person who grew up voiceless and without any rights anyone was obliged to respect, I just wanted to register my protests to actions reminiscent of what the Nazis did to the Jews, the United States did to Native Americans, South Africa and Rhodesia did to native blacvk people in Africa, and American racists did to black people during Jim Crow. As a Christian, I criticize the maltreatment heaped upon the poor and mostly abandoned children in the Christian orphanage: that does not mean I am anti-Christian. I am an American who criticizes injustice here: that does not make me anti-American. I criticize racial discrimination by white people; that does not make me anti-white people. I criticized apartheid: that did not make me anti-African or anti-South African or anti-Rhodesia. I support Jewish values, including tikvah and the requirements of Torah and Talmud to do justice. My criticism of bans of non-Jews on buses in Palestine (amounting to de jure discrimination on the basis of ethnicity and religion just like Nazi German discrimination against Jews), and destruction of Palestinian crops and desecration of churches and mosques by illegal settlers in violation of the same international laws applicable to Crimea and Ukraine) does not make me anti-Israel or anti-Semitic. By the way, are not Palestinians semites?

I believe in the inalienable rights set forth in the United States Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of US Independence. Those include the rights of all people, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity or nationality to life, liberty and property. Those apply whether being done by the Israeli government or by German Nazis. If this flouting of the US creed and, I thought, the teachings of Judaism, the Ten Commandments continues, I, who supports the right of existence and self-determination of both Israels and Palestines, I will begin urging my government to stop spending US taxpayer dollars on practices that flout the American creed and that of the West, and a common humanity. 05/23/2014 Elizabeth Gilarowski The rule of law needs to be upheld. The US should demand that Israel stop such actions, help restore the damage, and pay for damages. 05/26/2014 Elizabeth Holsinger Unthinkable cruel and destructive behavior--not that of a civilized nation. Shenk 05/24/2014 Elizabeth J. Ebsen We need to stop supporting the apartheid inside Israel and the military occupation of the palestine outside Israel. 05/22/2014 Elizabeth Keiser This is deeply heartbreaking. 05/22/2014 Elizabeth Krentz-Wee 05/28/2014 Elizabeth Maxwell A retired minister in our Justice and Peace group (and a supporter of Israel) remarked that-in the Old Testament - taking fruit of trees is allowed BUT NOT THEIR DESTRUCTION. He cannot support this action by Israel. 05/30/2014 Elizabeth McPherson I have visited this wonderful farm of peace and implore you with all of my heart to look into this egregious action. It is against all of the principles the US holds dear. How can we even begin to say we support Israel because it is a democracy. This is not the way a democracy behaves. 30 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Elizabeth Murray 05/21/2014 Elizabeth Myers 05/25/2014 elizabeth northrop The continual harassment of the Doud family is a violation of Human Rights. Israel must respect the ownership of the land that has been in the family for longer than the State of Israel has been in existence. 05/21/2014 Elizabeth Ordonez I do not understand why the leaders of our government support, finance, and even applaud the outrageous treatment of the Palestinians by the government of Israel. By supporting this behavior, our nation itself becomes guilty of it. 05/25/2014 Elizabeth Read 05/24/2014 Elizabeth Robinson Unbelievably insensitive and awful! 05/25/2014 Elizabeth S. Oscanyan 05/24/2014 Elizabeth St. John I have long been against the injustices, especially during WWII, against the Jewish People. I am deeply grieved that Israeli government is now acting so unjustly! 05/23/2014 Elizabeth Stinson 05/30/2014 Elizabeth Valenze This action is illegal and atrocious and those responsible should be jailed. It is long past time for the Israeli government to stop mistreating the Palestinians and this destructive action is contemptible. 05/21/2014 Elizabeth W. peace and justice for all ! Hofmeister 05/23/2014 Ellen Broms 05/23/2014 Ellen Hünigen-Schmidt How can the leaders of a nation, which calls itself a democracy and believes in the rule of law, permit their military forces to perpetrate such destruction? It seems doubly horrific when one considers the past history of treatment of their recent ancestors by other fascist totalitarian states in the 1930's and 40's. With that experience as part of the national ethos, one would expect the Israeli government to be especially sensitive about the suffering of those who find themselves occupied and cut off from all reasonable human contact with the rest of the world. Alas, instead of sensitivity these leaders are perpetuating the very same inhumane treatment of an occupied people which their ancestors suffered. Shame on them. 05/22/2014 Ellen Lankhorst 05/25/2014 Ellen M. Ortman Bulldozing these trees is illegal, unethical, idolatrous and daemonic - and responsible Israeli authorities should be ashamed of themselves and their motives. 05/21/2014 Ellen Murphy I have followed the information on Ten of Nations for years. I am convinced that what Israel has done on May 19, 2014 is a crime. I can no longer believe in the state of Israel for its inhumane actions. 05/22/2014 Ellen Naomi Rogers The military violated their own laws in an act of political oppression. When will it stop? 05/29/2014 Ellen Peterson These are long-time Christian Palestinians, trying hard to live peacefully with their neighbors, while also trying all peaceful avenues to stand up for their human and legal rights. My wife and I visited Palestine and Israel a year ago and witnessed first-hand the harassment and apartheid policies of the military rule and its violations in the occupied territories. The army's separate-justice favors the illegal squatters (so-called 'settlers') on their commandeered land and unequal control of essential services. 05/22/2014 Ellen R. Stone Enough is enough. WHEN IS ISRAEL GOING TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE? 05/22/2014 Ellen Rice It is about time for the whole world to put a stop to the Zionist policy of Israel. 05/23/2014 Eloise M. Cranke 05/22/2014 Elsa Auerbach 05/21/2014 Elsa Marston Harik This is senseless aggression against a family that is respectful and kind towards the environment, the land and the surrounding community.

We are with you. 05/23/2014 Emmett Holman I don't understand how a government that claims to be DEMOCRATIC can operate in this way. It is not a democratic state, it is vandal state! The Palestinian people have suffered long enough, words from other states and nations are not enough, there needs to be action. I support non violent action through the use of boycotts and divestment and pray for a just and peaceful solution. Our bishops have called for an hour of prayer, for Palestine and the Palestinian people, on Sunday 25th, while the Pope is visiting the Holy Land. 05/22/2014 Eric and Carol Streiff I visited that farm in 2007, and have learned of the non-violent and constructive messages embodied in the lives the Nassers live. This act by Israel will live in infamy. 05/29/2014 Eric Schullerts 05/21/2014 Erica Hahn I have visited the Tent of Nations. It is dedicated only to nonviolent peace making. It is built on land that has been in the hands of this Palestinian family for generations.

I have seen the way in which access to the Nassar family land has been intentionally blocked by he Israeli government with no just cause. Even more, the mission of building peace and understanding in a region that is in such desperate need of such conversation is a vital gift the Nassar's offer to the world. I urge that there be a public statement on their behalf by the United States government calling on the Israeli government to halt any further action against the Nassar family and the taking of their land with no just cause. 05/27/2014 Ethel A Corcoran 05/22/2014 Ethelyn Pankratz Please honor the law. 05/23/2014 Eva Arnold-Schaller There can be no hope of peace while the modern State of Israel continues its destruction of the Palestinian peoples' way of life. We are tired of our tax dollars being used to advance the ethnic cleansing of historic Palestine. There will never be peace as long as the American government is held hostage to a small--albeit well-funded--group of extremists in this country and their counterparts in Israel. 05/24/2014 Eva Knauf This is just the latest in multiple attempts by the Israeli military to disrupt and push out Palestinian farmers & it is unacceptable & despicable & illegal. 05/21/2014 Eva Pettersson How can we talk of peace when there is NO justice? Where is Israel's conscience? Lost forever? 05/24/2014 Eva S. Moseley The action by the Israel gov is against all human right standards. It is time the US stops all foreign aid and moves to start sanctions. 05/24/2014 eva stewart As (or should I say: Even though?) a Jew and one-time Holocaust refugee, this kind of IDF action -- an extreme version of what it does in the West Bank every day --makes me furious, and also full of admiration for the Nassar family, its courage and its evident capacious view of the world and their own place in it. 05/21/2014 Eve Firor 05/28/2014 Evelyn Haas Enough is enough! The inhumanity of Israel should be made known to the world. 05/21/2014 Evelyn Miller Please see that reparations are made for this hateful and illegal action on this family who were giving so much hope to others. 05/23/2014 Evelyn Williames 05/28/2014 Ewan Aitken Our blind support of Israel no matter what is does is counter to traditional American values 05/23/2014 Eyad Abuhamda I have visited the Tent of Nations on the property owned by the Nassar family.

The attack was brutal and is immoral and illegal. I urge our U.S. Government officials to demand reparations and accountability from Israel.

Your support of the actions of the IOF are jaw droppingly Pfueller pathetic. 05/23/2014 Galen Trembath People in positions of power you must act, along with us, supporters, to put an end to such illegality and injustice. 05/23/2014 Garold Langley President Obama, you have often urged Palestinians to use non-violent means to protest and end their Israeli military occupation. For 21 years The Tent of Nations has endured senseless battles with the Israeli authorities to prevent their small farm from being confiscated. For 21 years the Tent of Nations has waged their protest nonviolently, they have labored their fields, waged their legal battles with the Israeli authorities and the Israeli settlement enterprise while remaining faithful to the teachings of Christ. Their simple message, motto and practice of neighborly love: “We Refuse to be Enemies” has warmed and changed he hearts of many including Israelis, and changed hearts of many people far and near including Americans, Israelis and Palestinians. Please support them and their universal message of hope. They are the living positive and proactive Palestinian social transformative agents who employ their endless frustrations, and daily painful experiences with the IDF and the Israeli settles into a positive power to change their neighbors and motivate their people in the cause of peaceful resistance. President Obama, your simple gesture of moral support will help them transform the hopelessness that prevails across their land and community, and bring peace to the land where once the Prince of Peace shepherded his flock and called home. 05/22/2014 Garret Edmundd As a Jewish US citizen I am doubly outraged by this disgusting, totally illegal action by the Israeli military. What is worse, my own government supports Israel - diplomatically, militarily and financially - in all their obscene ways of destroying the Palestinian people and stealing their land in the particularly sneaky way they have. This latest destruction is the last straw for me. We must as a nation regain some morality by using our influence with Israel to stop them! Israel is a pariah! Stop enabling them! 05/26/2014 Garrett Everett Please tell Israel to stop discriminating against Palestinians and allow the Nasser family to live peaceably on their land. 05/26/2014 Garry Gillard This is anti peace. Quiet expansion of occupation. What excuse could be offered for this incursion? 05/22/2014 Gary Bugarcic If Israel REALLY wants peace, they should embrace Tent of Nations as an example of how it's done. 35 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/28/2014 Gary Burge 05/27/2014 Gary Elshaw 06/01/2014 Gary Olsen-Hasek 05/23/2014 Gary Schwab Do not drive the Nassar family from their home.

Why is such a decent nation as Israel allowing this? 05/26/2014 George C. Waterston I had the privilege of going to the West Bank in 2006 and witnessed the effects of the Occupation. The security barrier, gave no security to the Jr Palestinians, it blocked them off from their farm lands, their jobs, medical care and families. It appeared to me then, that the security wall was being built to isolate the 'terrorists' from the Israeli['s. I met,and read stories of killings and the demolishing of homes and farm lands. even back then. They have continued to this day. How much longer must the Christians and Muslims be oppressed before the International community wakes up to what is really going on? I object to my tax dollars being used to supply the equipment needed to uproot olive trees and to build that security wall. The Palestinians are being pushed out of their land. Please note that as agriculture land is being destroyed, settlements are being built on that land. How will the future people in that land be able to sustain themselves without their fertile agricultural land? 05/22/2014 George D. Muedeking I am anxiously waiting for the day on which our government takes a serious stance against Israel's atrocities towards the Palestinians and truly pressures Israel towards a just and lasting peace. 05/25/2014 George David Mendenhall 05/21/2014 George Evalt This action is totally unjust. Why does our government not speak out? 05/22/2014 George Farah In June 2013 I visited Tent of Nations and met the Nassar family. Truly, for 22 years they have lived their motto, We Refuse To Be Enemies. 05/30/2014 George Jonte-Crane I think it would be a good gesture of peace for Israel to restore the property and replant the trees. 05/22/2014 George Khoury I love Israel and am a proud Zionist. I know Israel can and should do better than this! 05/23/2014 George Lutfey I have been to the Nasser family farm and met with the family.

I am appalled and can only conclude that Israel's government is dysfunctional. 05/23/2014 Gina Dawn Gregg This family has suffered a grave injustice, and compensation should occur. 05/23/2014 Ginger Riley 05/30/2014 Gladis Herst From where does this arrogance come?

The Israeli government does not deserve your protection when these kinds of things happen. 05/27/2014 Glenda Hill 05/22/2014 Glenda Scott I can't believe there are such cruel people in this world. Why won't you let these people live their lives on their own land and grow their crops and fruit trees?

Gyori I strongly object to Israel's disgusting illegal military attack on the Nasser Farm and the ongoing terrorism of this family who have been living under the stress of this illegitimate military occupation for almost 50 years. They have done all the right things trying to play by Israel's unrighteous and kafkaesque 'military justice' imposed through their apartheid system. But Israeli 'justice' has no intention of recognizing this family's land title rights. Now with this horrible surprise attack of devastating their orchards and farmlands, Israel believes it can get away with annexing this private Palestinian land. This is beyond wrong and unjust. What will you to stand up to the apartheid regime and defend these civilian lives and livelihoods from this ongoing ethnic cleansing and illegal property destruction and land annexation? 05/22/2014 Grace Said 05/24/2014 Grace Shahrokh 05/23/2014 Grayson This is an unwarranted and unreasonable attack on an organization dedicated to peace and justice. 05/22/2014 Greg Barrett Demanding justice is a right of every free person 05/22/2014 Greg Zuccolo The occupation is illegal,and a crime against humanity. 05/24/2014 gregg cusick 05/26/2014 Gregory J.

The Israelis have built a wall on palestinian lands, and if President Reagan had the courage to say 'Mr Gorbachov bring down this wall' in reference to the Berlin Wall, why cannot President Obama stop this monstrosity that has been built on Palestinian land, depriving them of using their agricultural land and their livelihood.

It is also bad policy (bad foreign policy and bad moral comportment) to fail to clearly and loudly denounce abuse of decency and of basic human rights, violation of international law, ethnic discrimination and persecution, and ethnic cleansing (which is the clear and obvious object of these discriminations and persecutions which are typical under the Israeli Occupation of the West Bank etc.).

05/22/2014 Jan Bauman This is especially unfortunate, as the Nassar family and their 'Tent of Nations' advocates for peace with Israelis. Their slogan is 'Refuse to Be Enemies'. Why can't the Israeli government sign on to that motto too? 05/26/2014 Jan Farrington As this action shows, the Israeli military acts with impunity with total disregard for legal rights and laws. The U.S. must stop supporting Israel. 05/27/2014 Jan H. Levie The Israeli military actions are unconscionable and action should be taken by the Israeli government for restituion to the family and the Tent of Nations. 05/23/2014 Jan Kreuger 05/22/2014 Jan Mallery I had the opportunity to meet this family. Their spirit of love and community is so contaigous. This illigal attack they have been under by the Israeli governement is unacceptable. And as the number one financial backer of Israei, it is our responsibility to speak up. 05/22/2014 Jan Nelson This is serious. This must be stopped 05/23/2014 Jan-Paul Alon I was privileged to hear Daoud speak on a visit to Stanford and was so impressed by Tent of Nations. I definitely want to stand with them in protest of this horrendous treatment. 05/25/2014 Janae Detwiler If you read this petition thoroughly, you will see the real Israel, not the country that the MSM and Washington bubble would foist upon you. This farm's land and produce are not the only things being destroyed in the West Bank-- Israel goes as far as destroying homes, roads, dividing Palestinian lands with the apartheid wall, cutting off electricity and water supplies and directing those native resources to the settlements. There is also genocide being perpetrated by the Israelis in the West Bank and Gaza. THIS MUST STOP! Is there no one, including the President, in the US government, who has the courage to say that Israel is committing evil acts against these occupied people and to become irate enough to call Israel out on its disrespect for international law?

05/25/2014 Janath W. Ramage Having just returned from a visit to Palestine and Bethlehem, I witnessed first hand the challenges to Palestinian sovereignty. These trees were not a threat to security and rightly belong to the Nassar family. Please look into this matter in a fair and just manner. Salaam, shalom, peace. 05/23/2014 Jane Adas 05/30/2014 Jane Atkinson 43 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/22/2014 Jane Brda 05/24/2014 Jane Collier I have visited the Tent of Nations and revere this family's dedication to peace in the face of aggression to steal their land on high ground.

Please stop this travesty from ever happening, and make immediate amends to the people who have lost their livelihoods and source of sustenance. 05/21/2014 Jane Thomas In addition to violating the Nassar;s family;s human and property rights, israel violates International law by refusing to allow construction and development by Palestinians in the so-called 'Area C', transplanting Jewish settlers in these areas, and by the large scale theft of its water resources. 05/26/2014 Jane W. Clemens It is imperative that the United States take action against the horrors committed by Israel in violation of internation law and human rights. 05/22/2014 Jane Wasson 05/26/2014 Janet A. Danielson If there's any truth in this, it makes me both angry and also ashamed to have relatives who are citizens of Israel.

Those who attack them who will not be enemies are enemies of all of humanity. 05/23/2014 Janet Armitage 05/21/2014 Janet B. McCully 05/22/2014 Janet Benvie God called Abraham to organize a nation. Abraham, and that nation, were intended to be a blessing to the world by being an instrument of reconciliation among nations. Israel has not forgotten that they are God's 'chosen people,' but they have forgotten what they were chosen to be. To paraphrase an old saying, Abraham must be rolling over in his grave. 05/31/2014 Janet Bruns It is outrageous for the IDF to destroy the property of the Tent of Nations just outside Bethlehem. This is a peace center!!! 06/01/2014 Janet Chisholm Stop This destruction 05/23/2014 Janet Claassen 05/25/2014 Janet F Lind 05/21/2014 Janet Folsom We have met Daoud Nassar and can attest to his integrity. This blatant violation of Israeli law must be redressed. 05/24/2014 Janet gail Williamson 05/23/2014 Janet Handford I have recently returned from a pilgrimage to Israel and have witnessed first hand the deprivations faced by Palestinians. There is presently no justice for them. 05/24/2014 Janet Jones 05/26/2014 Janet L. Whitney I want the Israelis and the Palestinians to each have a nice place to live. Looks like right now that is not happening. Could we please focus on the goal of getting to that place right away, instead of each side doing bad things to the other. That is just a big waste of everyone's time. The latest being this Israeli up rooting 1500 fruit trees! What's the good of that! Who's allowing this disgusting behavior? Get to the bottom of it. It is inappropriate and just makes things worse. Stop this ugly behavior NOW! 05/21/2014 Janet Leslie 05/21/2014 Janet lynch 44 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/24/2014 Janet M.

I urge you to stop all of the negative actions against them, as they try to move on in peace! 05/22/2014 Janice Kelly 05/21/2014 Janice Miller I know the family that owns the land that was illegally destroyed and they are among the most peace loving people I know. Please, please act on behalf of justice for this family and their land. Thank you. 05/23/2014 Janine Saleh Please help these people who don't have anyone to help them against a giant power. They will starve slowly and die without our help. 05/25/2014 Janna Kisner This action by the Israeli army is just plain evil. Motivated by greed to own all the useable land - I am mindful of the commandment not to 'covet...anything of thy neighbors'.' 05/22/2014 Jason Childers 05/27/2014 Jason White 05/24/2014 Jay Colbne 05/23/2014 Jay Cooperman, MD The People are farmers on their own land, natives of their land since Generations; the times of Apartheid should be over for Long, let them exost in peace, i.e. in peaceful co-existence 05/23/2014 Jay Doubleday Tent of Nations stands for justice, peace and reconciliation. The governments of Israel and USA should as well. 05/23/2014 Jay Stewart Robbins We want justice to the Nassars and their property 05/23/2014 Jayleen Hatmaker As a Christian, a United Methodist minister, and a scholar of the Hebrew Bible, I deplore this senseless act of violence, and call upon you to condemn this act. This has nothing to do with Israel's security, or with anti-Semitism, and everything to do with upholding the principles of peace and justice embraced by all Jews and Christians. 05/29/2014 Jean A Yeager 05/22/2014 Jean A. Blackwood I was just at the Tent of Nations in November 2013 with a delegation from Inter-faith Peace Builders. We had meet with family and saw their wonderful home and surrounding orchards. We heard their story and how they have remained steadfast while living under Occupation. They shared a wonderful meal with them and sat by a evening fire talking and singing including 'We Shall Overcome'. In that peaceful moment we looked at the night sky and could see all the light from settlements that surround them. Yet this family welcomes all and wants justice and peace. The destruction of over 1500 trees is reprehensible, and no explanation given be the Israeli government is legitimate. The resolve of the Nassar family is amazing.

I personally am sickened and saddened by this attack that was perpetrated on the Nassar family. As an American citizen I am outraged that my tax dollars are used to continue to subjugate the Palestinian people. It is time for the US to stand on the side of justice which we espouse. 45 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Jean and Jack Hodges There is more and more difficulty backing Israel when so many acts against humanity, such as this, are perpetrated against others.

Both sides have made mistakes. 05/23/2014 jean g. hart 05/21/2014 Jean Gore Despite years of non-violent efforts to secure this family farm owned for at least a century the Israeli authorities have violated the security and trust built by the Nassar family with neighbors both Israeli and Palestinian. It is shameful and the family should be compensated for damage done and an public apology given by the Israeli government. 05/22/2014 Jean Harrison Nothing changes. Israeli politicians and the IDF continue to act in ways that instigate conflict and they go unpunished by the world. They are like a toddler given free reign and impunity. Enough already. 05/23/2014 Jean Hunt It is time that Israel stops stealing Palestinian land. 05/22/2014 Jean Lutterman 05/24/2014 JEAN MARTENSEN 05/25/2014 Jean McNamara 05/23/2014 Jean Mundell 05/23/2014 Jean Peters 05/24/2014 jean Provost Rachel Corrie repeat 05/23/2014 Jean-Claude Touzin I have experienced the incredible work of the Tent of Nations firsthand, and the actions of the Iraeli government are contrary to the cause of peace. 05/22/2014 Jean-Luc Mercier Apartheid state ! 05/27/2014 Jean-Marie Detilleux Bring peace to the land and the people. 05/23/2014 Jean-Pierre Bacqué My county has many fruit tree producers.

The unconditional support of the U.S. to Israel is what enables Israel to persist with its policy of grabbing Palestinian land and cleansing it of its rightful owners. 05/26/2014 Jeannine Bailey 05/28/2014 jeff kipilman This is an outrage and violation of human rights for the Nassar Family who have only worked for the good of the land and people. 05/23/2014 Jeff Kursonis There is no comment adequate to this wanton destruction, both to a human livelihood and to bearing trees of any kind.

The policies and behavior of Israel is not consistent with a 'democratic' state, but with an apartheid state.

They wish to live in peace. 05/27/2014 Joanna Harmon I observed the situation in Israel/Palestine first-hand in March, 2014. I believe that the people of both groups desperately want peace, but their leaders continue to block peace.

B'shara, and the dedication of his whole family to building pace through their Tent of Nations farm has been heinously wronged by this senseless act of violence. That the Israeli government would condone such infringement on legally owned private land makes me ache. It makes me want to go to Israel and dig up the trees planted in my name when Israel was made a state. As a Jew, my head is bowed in shame. 05/23/2014 John H.

Amal Nassar spoke with passion about refusing to have enemies. Yet Israeli military have come in and arbitrarily destroyed decades of work. I am horrified. Olive trees planted by PPF delegates in 2007 have also been destroyed.

Guinn 05/27/2014 Joyce Klava I returned home to the USA on Monday May 19, 2014 from a trip to Palestine which included Bethlehem and had heard the Nassar's story for working for peace. I was very sad and angry when I checked the news on Tuesday morning and heard of this travesty. I encourage the US to respond in a just and peaceful manner in defense of this Palestinian and other Palestinian families. 05/22/2014 Joyce Lindner 05/25/2014 Juanita Lynn Austin 05/26/2014 Judiith 06/01/2014 Judith A.

Lee I am heartbroken and crying tonight. Daoud Nasser and his family at The Tent of Nations in the West Bank was invaded by Israel and their farm destroyed. Entire fields of grapes, apples, apricots, almonds, figs were wiped out. Hundreds of fruitful trees were destroyed. Daoud and his family own the land, have papers dating from the Ottoman Empire. The Nasser family has been persecuted mercilessly by five surrounding settlements, the IDF and the government that prevented them from even collecting rain water.Those of us who know Daoud have been deeply impacted by his compassion, nonviolence, resiliency, creativity, and commitment to community and co-existence with Israel. This outrage cuts deeply into the heart. As a rabbi, I feel betrayed by the breaking of so many ethical violations. This tragedy is ours to confront. There must be an investigation. The IDF should not enter the land of this family. Nor should it be declared State Land for the purposes of further settlement expansion. This is a travesty. 05/22/2014 Judith Deutsch 05/22/2014 judith glaubman This is a travesty. 53 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Judith Goldberger Why do we have a 'special relationship' with Israel when this is how they treat the Palestinians?

The Israeli military must compensate the Nassar family and the Tent of Nations for the destroyed orchard and the Israeli military, government, and settlers must keep their hands off the Tent of Nations and the Nassar family's land! 05/24/2014 Judith Reidinger 05/22/2014 Judson Feder I have spent time at the Tent of Nations on two different occasions..the family is nothing but very welcoming to all from throughout the world, including peaceful Israelis..this attack by Israeli soldiers is a travesty and should be strongly condemned in no uncertain terms..reparations must be forthcoming from Israel including a commitment to stop all the offensive actions against this family who has had to defend this land against armed incursions and Israeli seizure threats despite the Nassar family having clear documentation certifying ownership. 05/27/2014 Judy Amarah 05/27/2014 Judy and Michael White 05/22/2014 Judy Ann Nuttet I'm appalled that you would consciously chop down trees from which people draw nourishment.

The Palestinian people need their lands restored, not destroyed!! 05/22/2014 Julie Bley 05/21/2014 Julie Doyle I am greatly dismayed to learn of the actions of the Israeli military courts which support the demolition of structures on the Nassar family farm. While I have a strong relationship with the Jewish faith and have always supported the state of Israel, the increasing disregard of Israel toward the legitimate rights of Palestinians has made me question our nation's stance of unrelenting and often unquestioning support of whatever the official position of Israel might be. This is especially true when those who are clearly working toward a just peace are ignored or attached. Please use whatever influence you have to halt this proposed action... Thank you. 05/22/2014 Julie E Boland 05/24/2014 Julie Johnson 05/22/2014 Julie Kanak The children of Israel, all of the children, cry for justice.

How long will we allow Israel to deliberately destroy lives and property, recklessly disregard international law and violate the human rights of millions of Palestinians?

This project is an excellent example of Palestinian efforts to promote reconciliation and live in peace with Israelis. For that reason--plus the Israeli government's and military's underlying drive to ethnically cleanse the West Bank of Palestinians--the Nassar family and their Tent of Nations Project have been under relentless attack by settlers and Israeli military. I urge the United States to take every possible step to protect the Nassar family's rights. 05/22/2014 Karlene Griffiths Sekou I visited the Tent of Nations and the Nassar family in October 2012. I am appalled and horrified at the ongoing threats, the blatant disregard for law and human decency, and the recent terrible destruction of the family's fruits trees. 05/26/2014 karol tulp-magee I visited the Tent of Nations January 2014 and January 2012.

Please do anything you can to stand up for human rights. 05/23/2014 Kathy Tolman I have visited Tent of Nations and found it an inspiring project dedicated to peace and international understanding. There is no reason for its destruction except that it occupies a strategic site that would be useful to the Israeli military. 05/23/2014 Kathy Wallenta Please stop the destruction and promote fair due process. 05/23/2014 Katrina Yates Spear This is a terrible miscarriage of justice. This family has lived on, and owned, this land for almost 100 years, long before the state of Israel came into being. This family never abandoned their land, removing the Israeli government's primary excuse to seize abandoned property. The United States should make clear that it does not support such action, beginning with cutting off all monetary aid to Israel. We must not let them think that these activities are acceptable to us. This peace loving family has every right to remain on their family property. 05/23/2014 Kay Arnold 05/22/2014 kay joy Please investigate, require government acknowledgment of the private ownership of this land, and insist upon immediate and full compensation to the owners for the despoliation of their land. 05/28/2014 Kay Mooney 05/24/2014 Kay Tarazi 05/22/2014 Kaye Exo These are peaceful people trying to unite - not destroy.

I have spoken to groups about the Tent of Nations since my return, as have thousands of other visitors. It would be a terrible mistake for both Israel and for the United States government if they turn a blind eye to this latest act of attempted ethnic cleansing. I am incensed, all the more since I personally have been there. Please cease all attempts to destroy this internationally known landmark and symbol for nonviolence and peace and justice. Repair the harm! 05/23/2014 Ketty A Wadia 05/25/2014 Kevin A.

This family has had to endure harassment to protect their property and the peaceful work they have been conducting.

Please stop this in justice. 05/26/2014 kevin Gallagher 05/22/2014 Kevin Morrow 05/23/2014 Khalid Darwish 05/23/2014 Khusro Elley Israel, your own Word from G-D tells you, 'You shall not wrong or oppress a resident alien, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt' (Exodus 22.21). G-D goes further to say, 'The alien who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your G-d' (Leviticus 19.34). Furthermore, G-D says, 'So you shall divide this land among you according to the tribes of Israel. You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the aliens who reside among you and have begotten children among you. They shall be to you as citizens of Israel; with you they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel. In whatever tribe aliens reside, there you shall assign them their inheritance, says the Lord G-D' (Ezekiel 47.21-23). And further, 'Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your ways and your doings, and let me dwell with you* in this place. Do not trust in these deceptive words: ‘This is* the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord.’

For if you truly amend your ways and your doings, if you truly act justly one with another, if you do not oppress the alien, the orphan, and the widow, or shed innocent blood in this place, and if you do not go after other gods to your own hurt, then I will dwell with you in this place, in the land that I gave of old to your ancestors for ever and ever' (Jeremiah 7.3-7). Do you think that G-D will be your strength and stay when you violate G-D's decrees through unjust judgments in your courts and the destruction of the livelihood of aliens who dwell in land over which you claim to have jurisdiction? With all the hunger in the world, do you believe God will reward you for destroying trees that provide nutrition for the peoples of the world? Never has it been so, and never will it be that the Lord rewards those who violate the command to 'do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your G-D' (Micah 6.10). Unless and until you make recompense for your misdeeds, G-D will continue to place obstacles in the way of peace for you, and you will never rest secure until you obey G-D's commands.

Much love and God's blessings in the midst of turmoil. 05/22/2014 Laurie Larson Caesar I've been to the 'Tent of Nations: I know and appreciate the courage, the non-violence, the faith of this (Christian) Palestinian family, they came to see us in France and our county (Haute-Normandie) even gave them money to help them and buy a tractor; They are non-violent people and the violence against them (and against other Palestinians) must STOP 05/25/2014 Laurie Senauke inexcusable and disgraceful 05/21/2014 Laury A Betha 05/22/2014 LaVerne Uhte 05/26/2014 LaVoie Suzanne 05/23/2014 Lawrence Pruner 05/25/2014 Lawrence R.

The US should halt all aid to Israel until this atmosphere of Middle Eastern apartheid comes to an end 05/22/2014 Leah Mick I have seen the farm and heard first-hand how the Nassar family works for peace.

It is long past time to give them justice and to recognize their rights.

The latest action by the IDF is only the latest in a long string of injustices.

Thank you! 05/25/2014 Leah Prudent All people of any or no religion should be able to live in peace. People who promote the cause of peace should have our backing and protection.

And yet they have persevered with their farming and their dignified lives, with a quiet determination where you would expect to find bitterness. The ongoing harassment of this remarkable family must be brought to an end! 05/22/2014 Lee Marrs 05/22/2014 Leena Ali There appears to be no limit to how low Israel will go yet still be supported by US administrations. 05/23/2014 Legrand Every non-violent Peace initiative in Israel is urgently needed and must be supported. 60 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/22/2014 Leila Richards The Nassar family has many friends in the United States and abroad who will spread the word about the Israeli confiscation of privately owned Palestinian land.

Knowing Israel's Zionist settlement project I could not help but feel that the Tent's days were numbered.

This event is most disturbing to all of us who strive to promote peace in the Holy Land, and the Nassar family are living examples of positive actions in this troubled place. Those in authority must respond to this unwarranted and illegal attack if they wish to be themselves models for peace. 05/24/2014 Liz Thompson It pains me that the USA supports Israel through its depradations like this.

STOP them! Do not forget. - George Beres in Eugene, Oregon Witherspoon 05/23/2014 Mary A Borchers Israel's action in this regard is horrible. The USA should bear full responsibility for this and other unlawful actions of Israel, since it is the USA that has armed Israel, subsidized it and protected it from all international action to curb its illegal occupation. The U.S. is responsible for the 'road map' to nowhere with a wink and a nod to Israel to go ahead with its illegal settlements. The USA has been complicit in all Israel's flouting of international law, by uncritically defending all such Israeli actions. This has to stop - for otherwise our country (the USA) will be held responsible for all the long-term damage done to the Middle East and to the world by Israel's rapacious, cruel and unlawful actions. 05/22/2014 Mary ALice Stanton Please respect the property rights of the Nassar family. The destruction of so many living trees and the land that has supported them for generations is a crime against life as well as against the Nassar family, and should be condemned by all reasonable people. 68 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Mary Ann 05/30/2014 Mary Ann Bernald This is outrageous and the world should hear what the Israeli Military Courts have sanctioned. 05/22/2014 Mary Ann Carlson Destroying trees on this farm is inexcusable. The Nassers are a peaceful Christian family. I recently visited the West Bank. I'm so offended that my tax money goes to support the IDF and their continuing civil rights abuses. 05/24/2014 Mary Ann Harwell Please stop allowing the IDF to wantonly destroy Palestinian land, trees, homes and people. This latest attack on the trees at the Tent of Nations is abominable. 05/23/2014 Mary Ann Kistner The Nassar family should be nominated for sainthood in their commitment to working through the Israeli legal system and to responding nonviolently to the persistent oppression and injustice perpetrated by the Israeli military and government. Stealing their land, to which they have title, is wrong, wrong, wrong.

05/23/2014 Mary Ann Shippert 05/21/2014 Mary Ann Weston 05/22/2014 Mary Anne Gerlach Yet another example of Israeli abuse of Palestinians. 05/22/2014 Mary Anne Mercer Return the land at once and pay damages for destruction of trees and future income. Free Palestine and western Asia from Zionism. Help Israel transform itself. 05/23/2014 Mary Assel to the usa government: you must act to protect religious choice and freedom in all parts of the world, especially those acts like this one motivated only by love of the human family. otherwise our culture means very little, and usa promotion of democracy becomes a fraud. this case alone warrants investigation of the israeli miltary and government for a new crimes against religion and humanity under any civilized standard on international law. boycotts of israeli products and services should be encouraged until israel reverses this policy, and pays the victims reparations. 05/21/2014 Mary Bahnsen Mullen 05/21/2014 Mary Baldwin Kennedy

It is time for the US government to do the right thing and stand up to the bullying aggression of Isreal an d cut all funding. It is an outrage that US tax dollars are supporting Israel's violence. 05/30/2014 Mary E. Torregrossa I will support any peace efforts in that region. The suffering must end now, and people should be able to pursue their life dreams. 05/27/2014 Mary Elizabeth Morris 05/27/2014 Mary Ellen Ford I KNOW U.S. policy is not to negotiate with terrorist.These criminal acts have been nonstop; Israelies 'stealing' homes from families that have lived there for generations 05/21/2014 Mary Ellen segall 69 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/21/2014 Mary Faye Bennett I know I am just one of many internationals - who have been welcomed by Daoud Nassar and his family at Dahers Vineyard. In my group - we were white, black, brown, red, American, Israeli, French, Arab, Muslim,Christian, Jewish, young and old - we all received the same welcome and encouragement to practice nonviolent protest, even as Daoud explained his fight to keep his land - surrounded almost completely by Israelis illegal settlements. He talked about how they worked the land - despite having no access to water - most of it was being diverted to the illegal settlements. He talked about the trip from Bethlehem to the farm - which took hours inspite of the short distance because of Israelis Separation Wall built largely on Palestinian land. And his message was clear - we refuse to be enemies. This was in May 2008- in the years since the Nassars have continued their fight to keep their land all while facing increasing expansion from the illegal settlers, more checkpoints, more stop building orders. But this latest incursion - the IDF raid on this farm , destroying 1500 trees and grape vines. It's time to say enough, enough 05/23/2014 Mary Fox 05/24/2014 Mary Frances leMat I request that this action by the Israeli Military precipitate an investigation and hearings on whether this and other Israeli military actions and policy show that current aid to the State of Israel may be in violation of the U.S. Arms Export Control Act and the U.S. Foreign Assistance Act. 06/01/2014 Mary Gene Boteler 05/28/2014 Mary Gourdoux Dear Mr. President and other distinguished servants of the people,

I am writing to speak up for the peaceful work of Tent of Nations and to ask your help in stopping Israel's violent actions.

My friend is a Jewish peace activist and educator. She has participated in the Tent of Nations projects before.

Please help.

Susan Wehe Dallas Texas 05/28/2014 Mary Gray Holt 05/29/2014 Mary H Smarr 05/23/2014 Mary H. Reynolds This is absolutely outrageous. We are shocked to the core! 05/23/2014 Mary Heffron I pray that Israel and Palestine will find a just and peaceful resolution to their conflict soon. 05/22/2014 Mary Hurley This continuing destruction of trees must be stopped. They represent livelihood for residents as well as food for all. 05/24/2014 Mary Izett Stop the crimes of Israel against Palestinians 05/22/2014 Mary Jo Hardy These are peaceful people who are being treated with disrespect and cruelty - there needs to be justice for them. 05/23/2014 Mary Johnson When Israel carries out the atrocities it does with impunity; what does that tell us about the rest of the World? 05/24/2014 Mary Kambic I am devastated! The Nassar family and Tent of Nations is a group dedicated to peace. It is time for the US to stop, stop our aid to Israel until they stop oppresing peoples in the West Bank. 05/30/2014 Mary Kay Turner If the state of Israel is founded on the Torah and the Torah says, 'thou shalt not steal', what part of stealing does the Israeli government not understand? For this to be supported in any way by the taxpayers of the United States is being a party to theft. As a Christian, I find it particularly reprehensible that one of my brothers is being ripped off on a grand scale - all in the name of the Bible. The Nassar family are not terrorists, they are peaceable farmers. What possible security justification is there for this criminal behavior? If this action were being done against a Jew there would be massive media outcry and a drone attack against the perpetrators in short order. Instead, we have silence in all major news media outlets. Their silence is complicity. State of Israel, the people of the world are watching - do you think your actions make you 'secure'? Do you really have to be the bully to get security? Why not live in peace with your neighbors? 05/30/2014 mary kocak Jewish values in shambles. You can't even respect your own legal process. How pathetic 70 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/22/2014 Mary Koslovsky I have visited this farm on several occasions and know the Nassar family personally. They are people of integrity who in no way deserve to be treated in this way. They have deeds and documents proving beyond doubt that they are owners of this land, and have every right to occupy and cultivate it. The persecution that has been visited on them by the IDF and adjoining settlements is unconscionable, and violates universally-recognized standards of law and decency. I demand that this the violence done to them by stopped immediately and that they be compensated in full for all damage done to their land and buildings. 05/22/2014 Mary L.Rouleau 06/01/2014 Mary LaVerle Schrag 05/22/2014 Mary LeBeck 05/29/2014 Mary Lou Harley 05/24/2014 Mary M O'Brien 05/28/2014 Mary Margaret Powers

05/27/2014 Mary may 05/22/2014 Mary Menz 05/27/2014 Mary Mizzi The only reason for such unwarranted destruction is the Israeli government's position to drive all Palestinians out of the Holy Land. I am sick and tired of the U.S. Government supporting this regime with my tax dollars. Enough is enough. 05/23/2014 mary moriarty I am an American Jew, and I fully agree with the Tent Of Nations Peace project. 05/23/2014 Mary Pneuman 05/23/2014 mary powers 05/22/2014 Mary Ryan-Hotchkiss The law should be upheld with this situation and full reparations for the damage done. For too long, the Israeli Military acts as a law unto itself. Please see that the Nassar family and their Tent of Nations are treated fairly. 05/31/2014 mary scott gould 05/23/2014 Mary Sergi 05/31/2014 Mary Smarr 05/30/2014 Mary Smith 05/24/2014 Mary Sue Pletcher This action by the Israeli military is just one of many actions that destroy opportunities to effectively spread peace. We will use it to build an even stronger movement for peace in the Middle East. 05/24/2014 Mary Vivian Zelaya The brutal theft of Palestinian land by the State of Israel must end. The oppression of the Palestinian people by the State of Israel must end. Israeli and Palestinian children deserve a chance to grow and live in peace with their neighbors. 2 States. 2 Peoples. 05/25/2014 Mary-Alice W. Martines I object to such senseless destruction. Any Israeli who thinks he is one of God's chosen people should be living as one of God's children, in love and neighborliness, not wanton destruction that causes others distress. At the very least he is bound by the 'golden rule', due unto others as you would have them due unto you. And the ten commandments - Which sums up as; Love the Lord your God with all your heart AND Love your neighbor as yourself. 05/25/2014 Mary-Jane Wood Israel: Not only is this immoral and unjust, it is stupid! Such actions lose what remaining support you have in the world. 05/21/2014 Mary-Page Jones The attack on Tent of Nations is an affront to 1000s of supporters around the world as well as the Nassar family, & all peace loving people in Israel and Palestine. The Occupation and Settlement Expansion have stolen the soul of Israel & exposed the 'peace process' as a cover for ethnic cleansing. The US government must cease complicity. 05/24/2014 Maryann G.

Being German that was very very disturbing to me. 05/23/2014 Massimo Mandolini- To create a war in order to a take land is war crime. Pesaresi 05/24/2014 Mathias van Thiel These outrageous acts have got to stop!

Meyer I've been to the tent of nations and have seen it is a David (TON) and Goliath (Israeli Defense) battle. Who do you suppose God will side with? 05/21/2014 Matthew Moore 05/30/2014 Matthias Reichl This program has truly worked for peace among peoples. It is shameful the destruction that has occurred. 05/22/2014 Maureen Connell When is the US going to stand up against apartheid and ethnic cleansing?!?!? 05/27/2014 Maureen Keown-Walsh The action of the IDF should be condemned in the strongest terms. Denying Palestinian rights is immoral. Israel would gain far more respect from the world and enjoy more peace if it treated its Palestinian neighbors with respect. 05/24/2014 Maureen Wesolowski 05/21/2014 Maurice Michael I have had the pleasure of meeting the Nasser family on multiple occasions. Through their inspirational words and deeds, they have demonstrated their Okrent wholehearted commitment to grassroots peace-building with Israelis and internationals, despite the daily injustices they experience. This latest aggression against this wonderful family is an aggression against peace-building more broadly-- and an ominous sign of where the conflict is headed. 05/22/2014 Maurice Restivo 05/23/2014 Max Keene Even the trees cry out for Justice! US officials, how can you continue supporting a country that refuses the rule of law. Suspend all US aid to Israel until human rights are respected. Thank You. 05/24/2014 Max Obuszewski Human rights are universal and should be supported by all governments. 05/21/2014 Max White I remember well our conversation with Daoud Nassar several years ago on a tour of the Tent of Nations. We had so hoped that the courts would recognize their long-standing ownership of the land, which was planted in fruit and nut trees then. This family, which has been under attack for quite some time by the settler movement, has been on the land for generations, preceding the establishment of the modern state of Israel. This land belongs to the family; the attempt to take it from them just because someone else wants it is wrong. We are paying attention. 05/23/2014 Maxine Craighead 05/21/2014 Maxine Fookson 05/23/2014 maxine parent 05/28/2014 Maya Elashi 05/21/2014 McDonald Sullivan Signed on behalf of United Methodists' Holy Land Task Force 05/30/2014 McPherson, Mary Ann I am horrified by the actions of the Israeli military, and call into question the longstanding and ongoing support of Israel by the U.S, when Israelis so violate the human rights of peaceful Palestinians. Do not take such support for granted; act on the side of justice now. 72 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 medea benjamin It is shameful that the US fully supports the pariah state of Israel. 05/26/2014 Megan Byra Please stop the destruction of Palestinian lands in the occupied territories. Let the Palestinian people live in peace! 05/22/2014 Megan Smoot The Nassar family has submitted all necessary documents that prove they own that land. Please stop the ongoing harassment of this hard working family who refuse to be enemies. Make peace, not war! 05/22/2014 Meghan Smith The government of Israel's PERSISTENT CRUELTY continues to TURN WORLD PUBLIC OPINION AGAINST YOU!!! 05/22/2014 Melanie Ferraro It is time to respect EVERYONE, as well as the property that is rightfully theirs. 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.' 05/31/2014 Melanie Smith 05/23/2014 Melinda Smith 05/21/2014 Melinda Thompson Unbelievable that the U.S. Gov't allows this! 05/28/2014 Melva Underbakke It is an outrageous act of terrorism to destroy the property of peace-loving people like the Nassars, whose farm I have personally visited and worked at. 05/25/2014 Melvin Rosenthal 05/24/2014 Menda Ahart 05/21/2014 Meredith Bocek I spent time at the Tent of Nations and was much impressed with the peaceful attitude of this wonderful family. As a Jew, I am appalled by Israel's unacceptable bullying of the Palestinians. I am ashamed that my tax money supports Israel . 05/24/2014 Meredith Ryan 05/26/2014 Meribeth Sprunger Kraybill 05/22/2014 Merle Showers The Israeli government and military and citizens should be ashamed of this hateful act and be reminded of Bal Tashhit: 'The Torah Prohibits Wasteful Destruction and the destruction of fruit trees as a tactic of war. The Jewish legal tradition takes this to be a paradigm for any act of despoliation, in peacetime as well as in war.' 05/30/2014 Merriam Merriman 05/24/2014 MGT CNSL 05/27/2014 Micah Weiss If you have never been to the Nassar Farm, consider a visit and see for yourself how beautiful this land and the family who has tended it so faithfully for generations. Come and see this example of true non-violent resistance to occupation and oppression 05/24/2014 Michael and Melinda This will add to the over million trees destroyed in Palestine Beard 05/30/2014 Michael Anderson It breaks my heart that a non-violent organization is met with such violence against them. 05/24/2014 Michael Bass outrageous, disgusting, certainly not an avenue to participatory peace with the Palestinians. 06/01/2014 Michael Benefiel How can this be justified legally or morally? 05/27/2014 Michael Bennett 06/01/2014 Michael Berndt If Israel wants to live in peace, they must follow Micah's call to us all, to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with our God. 05/23/2014 Michael Busich Sr 05/30/2014 Michael Childers 05/22/2014 michael clements 05/21/2014 Michael Costa MD This violates contemporary Israeli law, but more importantly violates G-d's instructions -- Deuteronomy Chapter 20: 19-20 05/23/2014 Michael d Evans Having visited theTent of Nations and witnessed the Apartheid Israel continues create, the ever increasing land confiscation and cruelty of the settlers, I trust you will take action. Speak to the world about these atrocities and withdraw support from Israel. It is shameful that we condone such human rights violations. Go visit 73 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/30/2014 Michael Deheeger The Tent of Nations is a place of peace. It has been owned by the same Palestinian family for over 100 years. They are host to peaceful people from all over the world in their mission to promote peace and justice in a non violent way. They farm olives, fruits, nuts and many of their trees (over 1500) are being destroyed by Israeli forces who want their land for illegal settlements. We had the privilege of visiting Tent of Nations and wish for the US to help stop this senseless destruction of personal property by the Iraelis. 05/21/2014 Michael Fadil 05/23/2014 Michael G. Dietrich This old Lutheran Palestinian family are peacemakers doing their best to defuse tensions in the region, their motto is, 'We Refuse to Be Enemies' and they bring a lot of Americans and other Westerners to visit the region through their organization, Tent of Nations. Please protect their land in the name of Peace and let the Govt. of Israel know the USA will not stand for this kind of brutal harassment.

Thank you, Jeff Kursonis 05/21/2014 Michael G. McNeill This is a terrible destruction of private property. The United States should see that justice is brought to this peaceful farmer. 05/24/2014 Michael Issa 05/25/2014 MICHAEL K. This criminal apartide and fashist regime of israel continue to exist, because of the unconditional and uncritical economic and political support of the US and BOOSAHDA european governments,and without popular suport among US citizens.To make this fashist regime to surrender his inhumane treatment of the palestinians and his other neighbours it needs an extensive boycote of the israeli commodities . 05/22/2014 michael kerridge 05/21/2014 Michael Levin The Nasser family have owned their land for over 250 years, have grown olives and other foods on it yearly. They are peaceful. They do not deserve such ill treatment! It is obvious that Israel has no desire to be fair or peaceful. 05/21/2014 Michael Levin, Ph.D. To take away a family's livelihood and to scar the earth should be considered a crime. 05/27/2014 Michael May 05/21/2014 Michael Page I visited Tent of Nations last summer and also five years ago. This farm is a peaceful effort that we all should be supporting, not destroying. 05/21/2014 Michael Rabb 05/27/2014 michael samander 05/23/2014 Michael Vaughan 05/23/2014 Michael W Evans Why is Israel so horrible? 05/23/2014 Michelle Alnawafleh illegal land grabs by an apartheid syle state is an abhorrent process. These actions by the Israeli state brings to mind other such looting of land from other people in previous times. Just different excuses. 05/25/2014 Michelle Monson Justice should not only prevail in this case but in thousands upon untold thousands of other cases just like it since 1948. 05/22/2014 Miguel A. Mancilla 05/23/2014 Mike Antoniades 05/30/2014 Mike Brislen My wife and I, and several of our friends have visited the tent of nations, and enjoyed the hospitality of the Nasser family. We invested in a pair of fruit trees, probably among the ones destroyed by the IDF bulldozers. It is with great sadness that we learned of the destruction, and the implacablel and internationally illegal Israeli action. It is the duty of the United States, and other countries of the world, to stand up to the roque behavior of Israel. We do stand for freedom and the rule of law, don't we? 05/27/2014 Mike Gould 05/26/2014 Mike Hanna 05/30/2014 Mike Lasche As an American taxpayer, I am disgusted that this is being done with the help of my taxpayer dollars. 05/27/2014 Mike Walker 74 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/25/2014 Milford and Carolyn Lyndaker 05/23/2014 Millet Martine 05/24/2014 Milo Matthews This is unacceptable 150% 05/24/2014 Mina al Aseer The Nasser farm is a beacon of peace in the region -- one family living on the land that has been in their family for generations, but welcoming guests from around the world and offering summer camps and classes to the surrounding communities. I have very fond memories of a wonderful week spent there. Shame on Israel for trying to destroy it! 05/27/2014 Mindy Fugarino 05/24/2014 Minna Virtanen This is not the way of the Jewish people who believe in fairness. This is criminal activity and shoud be punished. 05/23/2014 miri helgesen 05/30/2014 Miriam Adams I am appalled and upset by the actions of the Israeli government and military in destroying the property of the Palestinian people in Palestine. I have held great sympathy for Jewish people because of the Holocaust they suffered at the hands of Hitler. However, what Israel is now doing as a country to Palestine is similar. They are treating the Palestinian people with complete disrespect and with no regard to them as a people. 05/25/2014 Miriam Casey I was in Bethlehem for 8 days and left early in the morning on May 19, never dreaming that this would happen a few short hours later. The Nassars are solid, salt-of-the-earth type of people -- ones you would want as your neighbors. I'm sure the Israeli Military have explanations. But would the Israelis feel that those explanations are adequate if they needed to make their case to a counter-balancing power? They are the only military power there in Bethlehem and we know the temptation that comes with power. 05/23/2014 miriam Habib 05/23/2014 Miriam Hastings 05/30/2014 Miriam Karp Destroying trees and land of owned by a Peace Project seems especially despicable. 05/23/2014 Miriam Kishi 05/26/2014 Miriam Krauss 05/24/2014 MIRIAM MOORE- HUNTER 05/23/2014 Miriam Vieni What has happened is too heartbreaking for words & needs to stop thank you?!!! 05/27/2014 Miriamn Gardenr-Frum This has to stop..time for the International community/courts to step in...... 05/23/2014 miroya mosnour 05/23/2014 Mirza A.

Kazimi I am outraged and horrified by the callous and unjustified actions of the Israeli government using its military to bulldoze away 1500 mature fruit-bearing trees in an area dedicated to peace. It is an atrocity for which Israel should be sanctioned, e.g., by the U.S. cutting off military and financial aid to Israel, or by international pressure to make restitution for their destruction (although nothing in the short run can replace those 10-year-old trees). 05/23/2014 munir zacharia 05/30/2014 Muriel Lawty 05/26/2014 Murray Polner I visited this farm in 2008 and am upset at this injustice. 05/24/2014 Murray W Beaver My wife, Elnora, and I have been to Israel and the West Bank and have seen seen the oppression on the part of Israel. 05/24/2014 Myla Kabat-Zinn 05/24/2014 Myrta Ladich This is terrible.

The Israeli's have been trying to confiscate or buy the land for several years. There is absolutely no justification for this abominable act of destruction. Not that there's justification for most acts of terror against the Palestinians imposed by the Israeli's with US complicity.

I urge all people of principle who care about justice for all human beings and who are in a position to influence the Israeli government to voice their unequivocal disapproval of this latest wrongful act. The Israeli military, at the behest of the Israeli government, is essentially moving from marginalizing the Palestinian people to driving them out, much as the Nazis did at the beginning of their campaign to eliminate the Jewish people in their 'final solution.' The motive of fear and hatred is familiar. The Israeli government has been creating an apartheid state and now they are stealing Palestinian land and livelihood. This is so patently unjust that it doesn't warrant any understanding. Fear is is no excuse and is the motive for so much that is evil in this world. I wish now to register my strongest level of protest for this latest immoral act on part of the Israeli authorities agains a family who has a right to its home and livelihood and is attempting to create a place of peace and reconciliation!--Paula S.

First, the olive trees -now fruit trees- It is 'nothing new' with the Israelis-who have little true regard for non zionists and innocent families, in their quest to continue their destruction of villages (and 'borders') with deliberate squatting of settlements scattered wherever they can prevent a true delineation (of borders)-knowing there willnever be a two state agreement. 84 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/23/2014 Randall Heyn-Lamb This is the most cruel act perpetrated against a peaceful family and against the land and nature itself - vandalism of the worst kind, shame on Israel and its military might. 05/21/2014 Randolph Urmston The Tent of Nations represents a hope for the future, for justice and for peace. I believe that any demolition or destruction of this forward-thinking community must be reversed and compensated with the full cooperation of the Israeli government. In essence, to destroy such a community is no different than the pogroms which destroyed the homes of my ancestors in Russia. This is happening now and we must reverse it so that history does not keep repeating itself in a trajectory of violence and fear. 05/22/2014 Randy Block 05/24/2014 Randy Hinthorn 05/27/2014 Raoul Unger 05/23/2014 Ray Assel If this were happening to Jews in Warsaw in 1939, surely someone would label these atrocities a 'holocaust!' 05/22/2014 Ray Doherty 05/24/2014 Ray McGovern 05/22/2014 Ray Payne 05/23/2014 Raymond Meyer This is a despicable act on a place that promotes peace in a land in great need of peace. 05/24/2014 Rebecca & David Stop Israel's actions!

The action taken by the Israeli Military appears to be totally unnecessary and destructive to prospects of a peaceful future. 05/22/2014 Regina Murphy I lived for three months in Palestine in 2010 and am familiar with the Palestinian farmer's struggles to farm under threats of demolitions, illegal Israeli settlement expansions, and restrictions to access to their land. They are committed to a non-violence response to coercive power. 05/27/2014 Reinhard Hauff Where are the enlightened Jews who know this behavior is so malevolent? 05/26/2014 RENEE FRANCO Let us be inspired by Pope Francis visit and find a peaceful, equitable solution to the unjust situation faced by the Nasser family and their Tent of Nations Peace Project. 05/23/2014 Rev Max B Surjadinata 85 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/21/2014 Rev Barry Keating I call for action against acts of injustice by the Israeli Military towards a Palestinian Christian family (the Nassar family) that has registration papers for their 100-acre farm dating back to the Ottoman Empire. The family has been working through the Israeli Military/Civil Courts and the Israeli Supreme Court since 1991 to defend their rights to the land on a vineyard just six miles southwest of Bethlehem in the Occupied Territories of Palestine (the West Bank). A Peace Project was established on the land in 2001 called Tent of Nations. Thousands of international visitors have visited the farm, worked as volunteers, held workshops and conferences in the facilities there, worked in the Summer Youth Camps, and have taught in the Women’s Education Center they established in the nearby village of Nahalin.

I have visited the farm and met various members of the Nasser family several times. Their commitment to peaceful coexistence is something that everyone -- especially Israel -- should be holding up as exemplar.

On May 19, 2014, the Israeli Military took unwarranted and illegal action and destroyed between 1,500 and 2,000 mature, fruit-bearing apricot and apple trees and grape vines growing in the lower valley of the farm.

In the past, (December 2012), Israeli Military/Civil Courts threatened to demolish 13 structures on the land (pens for animals, tents for volunteers, compost toilets, etc.) and denied the family’s appeal against these 13 demolitions. By appealing these orders through the family lawyers, however, the deadline for action was moved to February 24, 2013. At the same time, the family also requested (again) that the land be re-registered in their name (having all the papers legally required to prove ownership). The family provided all additional information requested by the Military Court by that date, and they submitted and paid for requests for building permits for the existing 13 structures placed under the demolishing orders.

In late April 2014, the Israeli Military placed a warning on the land declaring that the trees were planted on “State Land” and, therefore, constituted a trespass and should be “evacuted”! The family filed an appeal on May 5; they were waiting for a court decision on these issues, and that is what makes the destruction of these trees illegal.

We would like you to inquire about this issue and why this vendetta against the Daher’s Vineyard is taking place. Israel needs to be held accountable for its actions against a family that lives by the motto ‘We Refuse to be Enemies’ and that believes in non-violence as a solution to the problems there.

This outrageous incident is just the tip of the iceberg for Israeli abuse. 05/26/2014 Robert Keilbach My husband's niece married into a family of orthodox Christians formerly of Palestine that had lost their ancestral lands due to Israeli incursions. It is not 'anti-Semitic' to regard as morally reprehensible the kind of actions that the Israelis have taken against the Nassar family and their Tent of Nations Peace Project. Moreover, it is high time that the world stop casting all protests within Israel to the current Israeli actions against resident Palestinians as the work of (probably Muslim) 'terrorists'. It's amazing to me how a community that suffered so much because of the Nazi holocaust can treat others as they were once treated by a truly evil bunch of characters, rather than as the neighbors God has always called all of us who believe to love as we have been loved by our Maker and need to be loved by fellow human beings. 05/23/2014 Robert M.

I pray that all God's creatures (humans and trees) might be respected and valued. 05/28/2014 Robert Wynne 05/22/2014 Roberta Motanky Israel MUST be held to international law standards. As an occupier, they must protect the lives and livelihoods of people under their control. This act is totally unconscionable. The US, as Israel's defender and bankroller, has a moral duty to act. 05/24/2014 Roberto Currie, S.J. This is unconscionable. It not only violates the human rights of this family, it has irrationally destroyed so many sources of food (mature fruit-bearing trees) necessary for human life. How could you? 05/25/2014 Robin Fine 05/21/2014 Robin Razzino The Nassar Family has owned this land since before the creation of the State of Israel. What Israel has done is illegal and against international law. I demand that we hold Israel accountable for their actions. 05/23/2014 Robin Van Tassell Having visited Israel and Palestine on a mission trip in 2009/10, and seeing the mal treatment of the Palestinian people's, this type of action in reprehensible, irresponsible, and unacceptable!

A question: a la Israel's periodic back-handed slaps to Biden, Obama and Kerry, does this descecration of a Christian family's farm and land have anything to do with Pope Francis' visit to the Holy Land? My empathies lie with Mr. Daoud Nassar, his family, his precious land, and all Christians and Muslims of the Holy Land. 05/27/2014 Rommy Aiken We ask for justice, equality and respect.

Please stop funding the Israeli war machine with our tax money.

Rabbi Judah Magnes, cofounder of Hebrew University called for the two state solution and had warned there would be endless bloodshed which there has been. But President Truman ignored his pleas.

Please boycott Israel as many Israelis and Jewish people around the world are doing.

Dr. King couldn't have achieved civil rights or dialogue without boycotts. What was done to him the Israeli government is doing far worse to Palestinians.

He seeks only peace for Israel and Palestine, but a peace that is fair and just for ALL people in both countries. This illegal act by the Israeli Military is heartbreaking and appalling!!! Since the negotiations have broken down the United States must use other tools to force the Israelis to stop! In 2014 the US is giving Israel $3.4 BILLION dollars!!!! Let's take that away until they agree to an accord that is fair to the Palestinians. That should include moving the wall to the green line and withdrawing illegal settlements from the West Bank. The US is as shameful as Israel unless we stop this illegal and cruel aggression!!! 05/27/2014 Ros Gaul This act typifies the way Israel has achieved expanding its claim to land that is not legally theirs; it is not a new trick but one that should be considered the 'last straw.' It is upsetting to me that my country continues to generously support a nation that acts so out of accordance with legal norms. 05/21/2014 Rosalie Kramer Please do whatever you can to help this family keep their land. Instead of reacting to injustice with violence they have refused to become enemies of those trying to take their land. They have involved many adults and children from their own area and from around the world and promote peaceable activities. Now the Israeli military has destroyed their mature fruit trees. How can this injustice be ignored. Please help.

These people have documentation that they have owned the land since they were part of the Ottoman Empire. They have couragely fought to keep the land in spite of being surrounded by 'settlements'. This outrageous assack by the Israeli Occupation Army is a desperate attempt to break their spirit and struggle. It will not succeed. 05/22/2014 Rose Kamar Dear Sir, Humanity needs to be cherished.Israeli actions are against humanity.Thank you. 05/23/2014 Roseline Derrien 05/22/2014 Rosemarie Ashamalla 05/23/2014 Rosemarie Pace US facilitation of such outrageous actions must stop!

A glamor of violence is thrown over all our days. Even the blind in Gaza wonder how freedom will rise out of all this pain.

Hate is a terrible teacher. Generations survived from Warsaw remember the lesson too well. What must we do when brothers and sisters kill each other without apology. 'He started it,' they protest, pointing rockets at each other.

Sarah, will your heart be forever hard to keep Hagar’s children outcast always? Death is unforgiving and leaves only room for sorrow. Silence will not save us, the moat of distance is a lie.

Furthermore, I am virtually certain that if Israel were indicted for Crimes against Humanity, assuming honest and clear cut evidence was presented, it would be found guilty. 05/25/2014 Spring Milward Thank you for keeping informed about these injustices. 05/30/2014 Staci Graham 05/22/2014 Stacy Cole 05/22/2014 Stan Current 05/23/2014 Stan Sivesind Israel, how can you do this to the Palestinians?

It is utterly outrageous, illegal, savage behavior, AGAIN, by Israel! S Chinlund 05/27/2014 Stephen G Schultz THIS IS A DISGRACE. DESTROYING SOMETHING OF BEAUTY AND NOURISHMENT 05/21/2014 Stephen H. France, I have known Daoud Nassar and his family for many years and can vouch for their complete integrity and sincerity in wishing simply to work their land in a Esq. peaceful, neighborly way. The brutal, lawless assault on their trees and land raises major questions about Israel's intentions and good faith toward Palestinians. The U.S. must protest this injustice if it wants to uphold its legal and moral obligations to all the people in the area. 05/23/2014 Stephen Hyde When will the inhumane treatment of Palestinians STOP?! 05/29/2014 Stephen L. Gibson These acts are certainly illegal and wanton. They are done without explanation. This is not helping the cause of Israel. 05/22/2014 Stephen Schultz This is an outrage! And it is an outrage that our US government supports the Israeli government that destroys the property of law abiding Palestinians and STEALS their land. 05/29/2014 Stephen Suleeman 05/26/2014 Stephen V Kobasa 05/22/2014 Steve Graybill This is a violation of human rights and security.

The Israeli government should act peacefully and fairly. My prayers for peace and healing are with all! 05/24/2014 Susan P. Sonstrom I am both outraged and deeply saddened by this latest attack on the land of a family deeply committed to non-violence and peace, and who has a deed to their property dating back to the Ottoman Empire. They refuse to be enemies and yet are treated as enemies. Shame! 05/23/2014 Susan P.

'The land belongs to us, you know, For the Bible tells us so.' 05/22/2014 Susan Rogers All the evidence so far makes the Israeli Government look very bad and increases the growing disfavor appearing in mainstream press against Israel. 05/24/2014 Susan Schacher On the eve of Pope Francis' arrival in Israel, I urge the Government of Israel to address this injustice with the urgency it requires. True peace must rest on a foundation of justice. That peace is called Shalom. 05/23/2014 Susan Serpa 05/23/2014 Susan T.

Harassment like this only breeds further resentment toward the settlers, the military and the Israeli government's inability to control its own people. The reaction from law-abiding people around the world will likely result in extensive negative backlash upon the settlers and increase the call for two states, as the Pope did today. 05/22/2014 Sylvan Grey 05/22/2014 sylvana 105 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/22/2014 Sylvia Schwarz 05/21/2014 T Cho The Tent of Nations is committed to peace and Israel shows it is not committed to peace.

Carol L. As a Jew I can separate the issue of my people having a homeland from the issue of maintaining a war against the Palestinians who are being forced from Huntington their homeland to live in ever decreasing spaces devoid of all the opportuntities to work, study and provide for families that Israelis have in abundance. It is wrong. 05/21/2014 The Rev. Dr. Allie Perry 05/21/2014 The Rev. Dr. C. Denise I am appalled at the most recent actions by the Israeli military. This family works tirelessly for peace and reconciliation and they have a right to farm their Yarbrough ancestral land without this constant harassment. I visited their farm and know the work they do first hand. We must stop this illegal action! 06/01/2014 The Rev.

05/21/2014 Theresa Domanski This is a gross intrusion of human rights of the Nassar family, who went above and beyond the requirements to save their orchard and livelihood! It is unconscionable to see a family who owned this land from the Ottoman Empire to be destroyed in this manner. Do the Israelis forget the tragedy of the Nazis -- do they have no compassion for a people who are just trying to raise their children without asking for handouts? 05/23/2014 Therese Mughannam 05/22/2014 Thomas Beilman 05/22/2014 Thomas Biesiada 05/30/2014 Thomas Brown This is simply ridiculous.

They are superb examples of love and respect. But even if this wasn't true, why are they fighting this battle to hold on to their farm when they have legal documents of ownership?? Does the US support justice? The immense amount of aid we give Israel helped to destroy this Christian family's trees.

It was also cruel and wrong. The Nassar family is a peace making family who invite in settler and soldier alike to their farm. Israel should repay any losses and restore Daoud Nassar to his land. They have owned it since the Ottoman empire ruled the land. They have legal papers to prove it. It is not State owned land at all. 05/22/2014 Virginia Griffin 06/01/2014 Virginia Rila Birks This is an example of living Torah and should be respected.

Schenck It is time that something was done to help the Palestinians! 05/22/2014 Walter Matthews 05/23/2014 Walter Nicora I see that uprooting and destroying literally millions of Palestinian olive trees just isn't enough for the illegal Israeli occupiers; they need to destroy Palestinian apple and apricot orchards and grape vines as well. The fact that the Nassar family extends an olive branch and wants to live peacefully with its Israeli neighbors is probably all the more reason Israel feels threatened by the Nassars and thus the need to destroy their crops and land, as Israel doesn't want peace, it wants more land; hence, the need to punish any Palestinian who shines a light on that ugly truth or who defies the Israeli propaganda machine's portrayal of all Palestinians being terrorists. 05/25/2014 Walter Stelzer 05/23/2014 Wanda Snyder 05/31/2014 Warren B.

Land confiscation and agricultural destruction outside the legal processes of the State of Israel manifests the lack of democratic process and protection that the State of Israel claims it executes under the Occupation of Palestine. We call upon the State Department and the Congress of the Untied States to investigate the actions of the military forces in this violence to the Nassar's land and livelihood. 05/23/2014 Wayne D Kurtz My sister knows the Nassar family personally and has been deeply moved by their dedication to peace. It seems unconscienceable that our country would continue to support Israel virtually with no reservations while they perpetrate such crimes. We need to hold Israel accountable.

Smith 05/26/2014 Willie L Ruff As my mother of beloved memory used to say, 'What's right is right.' This is the family 's right to their land. In The Godfather movie the statement is made, 'It's not personal; it's business.' Or better stated from the 1970's and poorly stated on my part, 'The personal is political.' It's a political decision by military courts but more importantly, it's personal. Personal not only to the family but to anyone who believes in social justice. Jews have a long history of commitment to social justice issues, particularly to unpopular issues. 05/25/2014 Winfried Belz 111 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 05/24/2014 Winifred Hollinigsworth

05/24/2014 Wm. and Ameena We want Peace ! Simon Allow people to keep their homes and lands. 05/22/2014 wondimu Geda This destroying of a farm is illogical and cruel. Why damage the property of a family who seek peace? Deyasso Why would you destroy crops that would benefit the community/ 05/28/2014 Yaakov Sullivan 05/22/2014 Yael Petretti This is not only a. Disgrace but a violation of humanity. How does Israel keep getting away with things like this? Why don't we see it in our newspapers or tv? Something very wrong with this picture!! 05/23/2014 yakini shakir 05/28/2014 Yasmin Raphael 05/23/2014 Yehia Yousri Mishriki 05/22/2014 Yenny Delgado The Israeli government practice of bulldozing Palestinian fruit trees is shameful. 05/22/2014 Yeou-Shiuh Hsu Israel damns it's future with it's injustice. Tent of Nations is what we need more of, so why destroy it? Surely the Lord will side with the righteous and just. 05/25/2014 Yona Shem-Tov 05/25/2014 Yossi Amitay This is an absolute disgrace, further making a lie of the Israeli claim to seek peace. Stop exploiting the holocaust and behave as if you have learned something from your own history. 05/21/2014 Yotam Amit Our prayers for a just and peaceful resolution are with this incredible, long-suffering family, who in spite of decades of relentless persecution, 'refuse to be enemies' and choose always the moral high road. 05/21/2014 Yuriy Reznik Israel continues to delegitimize itself with such unconscionable actions. The whole world is watching. 05/24/2014 Yvonne Haddad 05/22/2014 yvonne Turner inexcusable by any standard, more so because done by a nation claiming to be a democracy 05/24/2014 Yvonne wall Israel is a brutal apartheid state with strong fascistic tendencies. The destruction of more than a million olive tree in the past and now the destruction of the Nasser Farm is beyond the pale. US policies enable Israel to act with impunity -- shame on us. 05/23/2014 zahra al-mousawy 05/27/2014 Zakaria Shaikh Our acceptance of Israel's attack on its non-Jewish citizens is wrong and akin to accepting racial genocide. They are using force to bully others into leaving or giving up their land. Please stop supporting a government that condones and encourages such actions. 05/24/2014 Zaki Sabih This action is both illegal and immoral. 05/27/2014 Zeeshan ahmad U.S. aid to Israel must be stopped in its entirety now! 05/21/2014 Zeina Azzam How long can our government continue to support this type of action?

Why attack peaceful people? 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 To remain peaceful in a state of war is love. 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 Remember Naboth's vineyard, and what happened to Ahab and Jezebel! 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 There is no justification for destroying trees on the Tent of Nations property. The Nassers have the title to their land. 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 Blessings and Flow and May Justice Roll Down Into Peace. 06/02/2014 I have met the Nassars and visited the Tent Of Nations. I am awed by their longsuffering and by their passion to continue to build peace. 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 I have visited this wonderful place where there are no enemies. Yet the Israeli military destroyed their orchard in much the same way that Jews were treated prior to and during World War II. The actions of the Israeli military are inhumane. 06/02/2014 We pray for justice for the Nassar family. 06/02/2014 I support the Nassar family and their Tent of Nati0ons Peace Project. 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 I strongly urge a quick and just decision to protect this family's land and offer restitution for the illegal destruction. 06/02/2014 It is clearly obvious from this, and other actions by the Israelis, that there is no Rule of Law in Israel. 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 Please,cease and desist from continuing this inhumane and illegal violent practice; life and mother nature are to be shared and mutually respected in the name of God! 06/02/2014 What inhumanity! 113 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 Having visited the Tent of Nations this past January and our entire delegation, all 28 of us, having planted trees, it was particularly sad to hear of the awful destruction at the Nassar's farm. 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 I stand with my brothers and sisters to voice my support for the Tent of Nations Peace Project. 06/02/2014 Violence only begets more violence. When will we ever learn? 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/02/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 Crazy like a fox, yes! That's exactly what Jesus was. Thank God for your work, Rick. I wanted more than anything to go with you in January, realized I wasn't going to be able to pull it off, and backed away. Never stopped feeling sad about it. This note from you about the Nassars and the trees you and Teo planted made me feel better. God bless you. Shirley Brazda, member in Chapel Hill, NC, of the Church of Reconciliation; Mark Davidson, Pastor. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 I support the Nassar family and their Tent of Nations! 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 As a retired Presbyterian pastor, I have worked over several years to bring open communications and community to people of differing faiths. I feel strongly that this farm represents an international effort to resolve a seemingly intractable conflict in a peaceful wyy.

Let it be known that the Nassar family enjoys a reputation for peace far beyond the boundaries of the Middle East

Lerold W Chase, USA 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 This was an inhumane, vindictive and provocative act against peaceful farmers. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 I visited and was moved by the extraordinary Christian commitment of the family...AND I RETURNED TO THE U.S. & told others 06/03/2014 The base of Justice is love. Our challenged is show our oppositors what God has being doing in our lifes for justice and love. 06/03/2014 Hang in, Nassers. Justice will ultimately prevail. 06/03/2014 Please honor the history of this Nassar family by allowing them to be on their homeland and be the caretakers of land that has been in their family for many, many generations. 06/03/2014 I totally agree. Isreal has gone from the oppressed to an oppressor. 06/03/2014 Thanks for continuing to remind us of the injustice the Palestinians suffer everyday at the hands of the Israeli. 114 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 06/03/2014 This is a tragedy. It is apparent that the Israeli Military do not adhere to the law but make their own. It is difficult to understand how the Israelis who know persecution can inflict such criminal actions on the Palestinians. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 With Jewish heritage, I cannot understand how my people can treat the Nassar family this way. I am appalled at the way my 'relatives' are treating the Nassar family. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 These actions by the Israeli Military are not only illegal but inhumane. Shameful!!!! 06/03/2014 I visited the Tent of Nations in Feb. with a group from the Synod of the Southwest. I was so impressed with the attitude as well as work of Mr. Nassar. It was a blessing to be in his presence. What a Christian Giant he is. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 The actions taken by Israel are cruel and inhuman and bring further disrepute on a nation that should be upholding high values. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 Please support these efforts and investigate as soon as possible 06/03/2014 Proud of my Jewish heritage on my father's side, I am appalled at the way Israel is treating this family--a family with documented rights to its land. How long, O Lord, how long? 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 I visited the Tent of Nations 3 years ago and am so sad and outraged that such an act of destructions could take place. I believe in the Nassars's motto 'We refuse to be enemies. 06/03/2014 Stop harassing this wonderful family. The destruction of their orchards is unconscionable. Please follow the law. 06/03/2014 please help. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 Daoud Nassar has come to our worship community. I pray with the Nassar family for justice and peace. I prefer orchards and trees to bulldozers and settlements. I think that might be preference widely shared. 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 115 May 20 — June 4, 2014 --- FOTONNA Emergency Response Plan --- Red Alert! --- Petition Response 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014 06/03/2014
