About Mousa Abu Maria

Mousa Abu Maria is a Palestinian activist and farmer from the town of Beit Ommar, a village located in the West Bank about half way between Bethlehem and Hebron, currently surrounded by six Israeli settlements.

Mousa has spent several years imprisoned in Israeli jails, including a 14-month spell in ‘administrative detention’ without charge or trial. He and his family have also seen large areas of their land seized by occupation forces and illegal settlements.

Mousa is the co-founder of the Palestine Solidarity Project (http://palestinesolidarityproject.org/), a Palestinian-run grassroots organisation committed to non-violent resistance to the Israeli Occupation. Since 2006 the Palestine Solidarity Project has been organizing regular demonstrations against Israeli illegal settlements, to protest the ongoing physical abuse and harassment of Palestinian residents of the village and the loss of their farm land and orchards as a result of the expanding settlements.

Admission is FREE to all events.

The Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC) is hosting this talk as part of a series of Nakba Week events from 11th – 17th May 2013. The events include a speaking tour by Palestinian activist, farmer and former political prisoner Mousa Abu Maria in Belfast, Cork, Limerick and Dublin, along with protests, a moving gallery, and street information stalls.
