The International Solidarity Movement (ISM) group in Rafah, Gaza Strip in 2003 saw two of its volunteers killed by the Israeli military. Rachel Corrie was crushed under an armored Caterpillar D9 bulldozer as she tried to prevent the demolition of a pharmacist’s home. Tom Hurndall was shot in the head by an Israeli sniper as he attempted to move several Palestinian children off a road to safety. This short but powerful documentary records the goals and work of that group in the aftermath of Rachel and Tom’s deaths.

Electronic Intifada’s coverage of Tom’s death
In the U.S. mass media in-depth criticism of the Israeli government is hard to come by; even harder to find are comments from Israelis and American Jews who oppose the military occupation of Palestinian territory. Among Jews, opinions on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict are diverse — many favor non-violent solutions to the conflict and peaceful coexistence with the Palestinians. On this edition of Making Contact, you’ll hear the viewpoints of Israeli Jews and Jewish Americans who are part of an international peace movement to end the violence in the Middle East. You’ll also hear about an American activist who put her life on the line in the Occupied Territories.
Featuring:
Liot Weingart, co-director of A Jewish Voice for Peace;

Rabbi Arik Ascherman, Rabbis for Human Rights;
