The popular committee, or local council, of Kufr Qaddoum requested the attendance of ISM volunteers at their first demonstration in the village after more than six years of protracted legal arguments before the notoriously one-sided Israeli High Court. The attempts to gain justice through legal recourse were motivated by a unilateral Israeli decision in 2003 to block the main arterial road linking Kufr Qaddoum with Nablus. A number of ISM representatives had visited the village in the days running up to the planned protest, to discuss with the popular committee the specific problems they were having with the Israeli occupying forces and the possible ways in which the ISM could be of use. Abdul Ra’ouf Hamsa, a representative of the local council, and his assistant, Saqer Obwed, had explained to the ISM forward party that the main problem confronting the village was the loss of this key road — which up until 2003 had been the principle means of access to Kufr Qaddoum from Nablus — a journey of only 15 minutes now closer to forty. The road was initially obstructed (without explanation) by members of a local illegal Israeli settlement at Qadumim, but responsibility for the occupation of the road quickly became a matter requiring the repressive potential of the Israeli armed forces, together with the notoriously brutal border police force. For the past eight years the villagers have been utilizing other routes to travel to and from Nablus. As a result, their expenses have …
jamesdin.wordpress.com The whole summer I will spend travelling and making exhibitions as a part of the Re: Re: project crew. But I would rather like to go to swim in the sea. It is not easy to get money from art foundations to go the sea. The money that we receive is only enough to cover travel expenses, so nothing is left to go to a public pool. Because of this I go to swim in public fountains. But in fact, it is not me who invented this behavior; the Gypsys in Belgrade are practicing it for years. So I call this discipline Gypsy Style but it is not (yet) present in the Olympic Games.
