I am keeping this blog as apolitical as I possibly can, as I'd like to keep the focus on TYO and the good things that we are doing for our community there. Nevertheless, I don't think that it is breaking my rule to tell you all that three Nabulsis were killed in Nablus the day after Christmas by the IDF. They were suspected of the murder of an Israeli settler.
The BBC has some pretty disturbing footage from what I now consider to be my home. It can be easy to forget, up in the compound that is the TYO Masri building, that you are living under occupation. Other than the fighter jets that fly over and sometimes drop low for sonic booms, there is no immediate evidence of occupation. I don't even encounter Israelis except when we pass through checkpoints on the way to other cities. Something like this reminds me of the real situation of the conflict.
