After some consideration, I think it is worthwhile to mention the underlying source of my outrage. You might think in the context of the larger conflict where innocent people on both sides are being murdered, and other atrocities committed, why even waste space commenting on this video?

Mr. Abinumah, you should understand something: like the US presidential election, the conflict in Palestine will be decided by the 'middle.' That is my belief.

How does that relate to me? Well, I can see both sides of the conflict. I can honestly say that, through challenging myself everyday through research and study, I can comfortably argue for the Israeli and the Palestinian causes (not necessarily all of either sides' actions though, some of which are appalling and beyond cruel). Beyond that, you may be surprised to know I am Jewish and American. Among my close friends and family, I may be the lone person who would raise a voice of protest against Israel's policies, because I am a student of the history of the region, and am not pulled in by superficial political statements.

When groups like Berlin Direct Action attack (literally, though you may disagree) a group of older people enjoying a benefit concert in support of reforestation of an area destroyed by forest fire, they are lumped in with the anti-Israel crowd. When I speak against Israel, do you know how much easier it is for the close members of my circle, to criticize me? To say these are the people you are supporting?

While these effects may seem completely irrelevant, you should know that long-term solutions, at least in this region, are not built on extremism. That is true for tribal/ethnic disputes in Arab countries, the confessional disputes in Lebanon, and will certainly be true for Israel, if and when it signs a peace agreement. My question to you is - are you educating your readers, I assume, most are pro-PL, to learn to live peacefully with Jews, or are you part of the problem?

Thank you Eugene for clarifying.
However, it is pretty clear that the direct action group wished to disrupt the JNF fundraising, which is constantly presented as something other than it is, so maybe it was for Mount Carmel, maybe not (hardly the point). What is important, is to know that these groups are very committed to non-violence. That doesn't mean they allow themselves to be attacked in silence. It must also be clear to you that the relatively new movement in many countries to protest in supermarkets and in front of theaters where Israeli state-funded groups perform runs parallel to the growing realization amongst many better-informed world citizens that Israel's government is not looking for peace (they just want to do as they wish), that their treatment of Palestinians is literally horrific, that they intend to take even more of Palestine, that they are attempting to draw us all into an insane war against Iran and so on....the list is literally endless. I would also say that these same groups are against ANY violence and are working, for instance, to help kids in Palestine grow up without hate and resentment in their hearts... it is extremely important that they do not only know Israeli citizens as the one who arrests them, beats them, imprisons their fathers and brothers, and makes life unlivable. The enormous abusive power that Israel wields, backed by the US, is being contested by such small courageous groups, whose vision, as far as I know, is that Israelis and Palestinians will one day live together without borders, be they physical, racial, religious, mental.
I also happen to know that at least one of the main protesters was a Jewish Israeli citizen, many of whom are moving to Berlin out of disgust for Israel's policies against their neighbours or/and the cost of living. And I would imagine that most readers here are not simply pro-PL, but pro justice and rights for all.

Your description of the JNF also failed to mention that, whether you agree or not, it is a UN-recognized environmental Non-Governmental Organization.

Compared to the murder, violence and repression Zionists and the state of Israel visit, and have historically visited, upon Palestinians, it is absurd to suggest there's anything approaching violence exhibited by the protesters. Let the state of Israel cease it's exponentially more evil ways - illegal occupation, violation of hundreds of UN Resolutions, extrajudicial assassinations and their wanton murder of the innocent, checkpoints, home demolitions, uprooting of orchards, and illegal wars of aggression like Operation Cast Lead - and protests such as this one will become unnecessary.
