39. An update. Israeli, international Human Rights help Palestinians rebuild
some of the demolished homes.

Long live the compassion and humanity of those who, like Rachel Corrie, continue to value basic human decency toward one another and simple justice, over the interests and objectives of the powerful forces which violate them and intensify the suffering of oppressed people.

From http://english.aljazeera.net/news/middleeast/2010/07/201073117391534572.html . More (news video) at that site.

Israel has demolished more than 20,000 Palestinian homes in occupied East Jerusalem since 1967.

And some residents have had their houses torn down multiple times.

Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland reports from occupied East Jerusalem on how a small group of Israeli and international activists are helping rebuild Palestinian homes that have been repeatedly demolished.
