Dear NileMedia Reader: Below you will find information on two meetings where you can hear first hand accounts from American peace activists who put their lives on the line to shield the Palestinian civilian population from indiscrimnate Israeli assaults. Please take the time to greet these folks who deserve a hero's welcome home. It took guts and personal courage to face down the institutional brutality of the Israeli occupation army shoulder to shoulder with the Palestinian people. There is a deliberate attempt by both the local and national media to ignore the international solidarity movement with the Palestinian people.
