The Al Tafawk
Children’s Centre which we have been supporting for 7 years is now under
constant military harassment with the IDF entering the Centre at will, with
guns pointed at staff. That is why we held a webinar last night with a range of
speakers. Now we need to build solidarity with Al Tafawk.
The Al Tafawk Centre was established in 2010 in
Jenin Refugee Camp. In January 2025 the refugee camp was demolished and with it
the Al Tafawk Centre.
With much difficulty the Centre set up anew in the
centre of Jenin city. However the harassment has continued and increased. In
essence any Palestinian civil society organisation is seen by Israel as a
threat to it as it seeks to ethnically cleanse the whole of the West Bank.
Only the Monsters of the IDF could torture an 18 month old child by stubbing their cigarettes out on him
In 2021 and 2023 the Israeli Defence Forces entered
the Centre and wrecked its interior. See:
Why did Israel raid and
wreck a children’s centre in Jenin? 5.7.21.
Palestinian children in the West Bank are also under
attack 14.11.23.
Speakers at the webinar, which was
chaired by Ghada Karmi, a well known
Palestinian author an academic, included Khaled Quzmar from DCI‑ Palestine, a charity dedicated to protecting children which
was declared a terrorist organisation in 2021.
Samer Jaber, a former Child Prisoner in Palestine who now lives in England spoke
of the trauma that still haunts him.
Karen, a former English volunteer at the
Centre spoke of her experiences at the Centre and the situation they face and
then Mona, the Manager/Head Teacher
spoke about how desperate the situation was. Mona herself has been assaulted by
the IDF on numerous occasions.

Naomi Wayne, a trustees
from the British
Shalom-Salaam Trust, a Jewish charity, also spoke about the help that her charity had given
the Al Tafawk centre and finally Tony Greenstein of the Brighton Trust spoke.
Everyone who I spoke to afterwards
described the webinar and the speakers as extremely moving. It is one of the
most despicable things about the Israeli occupation that they target even the
youngest children for their brutality and sadism.
In my speech I compared the behaviour
and attitude of the Nazis with the behaviour and attitudes of the Zionists.
On October 4 in a
speech to senior SS Generals, Heinrich Himmler explained why the Nazis were
also exterminating Jewish children:
‘I did not assume to have the right to exterminate the men… and have the avengers personified in the children to become adults for our children and grandchildren.’
Compare this with Rabbi Eliyahu Mali of the Bnei
Moshe pre-military yeshiva whose students go off to serve in the IDF. In
response to a question about whether it was right to exterminated children as
well as adults he replied:
Today's terrorists are the children of the prior [military] operation that left them alive. The women are essentially the ones who are producing the terrorists,... It's not only the 14 or 16-year-old boy, the 20 or 30-year-old man who takes up a weapon against you but also the future generation. There's really no difference
The Zionists compare
the Palestinians to the Nazis and cry ‘anti-Semitism’ at the drop of a
hat. But the real comparison today is
between the Nazis and their Zionist progeny in Israel.
I am thinking that in order to bring pressure to bear on Israel that we should form a Friends of Al Tafawk. Anyone interested in this please contact me at tonygreenstein111@gmail.com.
Please take time to
watch the video and if you can afford it please donate to the Centre.

I am beginning to think that Netenyahu and his party - including the IDF - are ruthless, soulless and heartless.
ReplyDeleteIt beggars belief that he and his indoctrinated Zionist followers have got away with such brutal atrocities (of which many deliberate acts could be seen as pure evil) in our so-called democratic, civilised world.
What do you think of Jonathan Freeland trying to claim some of chants on Palestine demos as antisemitic ?
ReplyDeleteLike all liberal Zionists Freedland ends up justifying genocide and attacking its opponents as 'antisemitic'. I haven't heard any antisemitic chants on the demonstrations
DeleteTrue, but what about some of the chants, like "Zionists not welcome here", and placards depicting the star of David and swastika, or rhetoric that implies or overtly claims Zionism to be some sort of global power that controls everything ? Surely Freedland has a point here, they are antisemitic or easily perceived that way.
DeleteWhat is wrong with Zionists not welcome here? Zionists are genocidal racists. Should we welcome them?
DeleteTo Palestinians the Star of David is what the Swastika is to Jews - nothing anti-Semitic about it since Zionism stole a religious symbol and made it its own.
Zionism proclaims itself to be a global power and boasts of its influence over the United States. There's nothing anti-Semitic in that just because it's wrong. It's only anti-Semitic if Zionism is equated to Jews. Freedland has no point he is just a jounalistic prostitute and the most dishonest propagandist going
Why did Raj of the RCP not get handcuffed when arrested, but Ranjeet Brar did ? Is the RCP some sort of state asset ?
