Synopsis

‘A thought-provoking and powerful documentary film on the current and historical root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Unlike any other film ever produced on the conflict — ‘Occupation 101′ presents a comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the never ending controversy and dispels many of its long-perceived myths and misconceptions’

I don’t want to get too political on my blog but after having recently seen this documentary, I feel so compelled to share this………I’m truly hoping that the Obama (Administration) lives up to its brave, foreward-thinking words…………..and begins the right way………..

“So let there be no doubt, the situation for the Palestinian people is intolerable. And America will not turn our backs on the legitimate Palestinian aspiration for dignity, opportunity and a state of their own” Barrack Obama, Cairo, May 09

the beauty in imperfection

contemplation

purpose and intention.......

high upon a deserted mesa

feeling like we are at the top of the world

walking and contemplating whats behind and whats to come

the sense of peace is difficult to communicate…….

no sirens, no bleeping cell phones, no incessant chattering  to distract

……..or detract

the silence is almost deafening…….how beautiful is that?
