Tito Kayak scales Israeli surveillance tower in Bil'in

Back


20/04/07- Bil'in, Palestine: Puerto Rican activist Tito Kayak scales a 9 story Israeli surveillance tower and unfurls the Palestinian flag. The tower, apart of the apartheid fence, has annexed 60% of the land of the village of Bil'in. In 2000, he climbed the Statue of Liberty in New York unfurling the Puerto Rican & Vieques flags--to bring attention to the now ended U.S. Navy's bombing & occupation of the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico. He came to Bil'in with a delegation from Puerto Rico & Ithaca for the Second Annual Conference on Non-Violent Popular Resistance. The action occurred during the weekly demonstration against the wall in Bil'in, simultaneous with a press conference with Nobel Peace Laureate Mairead McGuire of N. Ireland who was shot with a rubber bullet that day. The footage was provided by Palestinian documentary film maker EmadBornat@yahoo.com ('Bil'in Against the Wall').
