After more than 100 border Palestinians chipped of Israel with Syria on Sunday, struck by a fence and striding in a village in the Golan Heights, surpassed the security forces Israeli scrambled to glean what they could from the protesters who had, without as much a pistol, entered the country than any army in a generation later.
Questioned closely, the infiltration has filled the gap of information with a shrug of the shoulders and a single word: Facebook. The operation which had taken Israel touted military and intelligence complex myself was announced, fed and triggered on the social networking site occupies a place in each uprising throughout the Arab world - and is to help young people that Palestinians change the terms of their fight against Israel. (See photos of tempers flaring across the Middle East).
Sunday headlines are due to the violence of the day: at least four people was shot dead by Israeli forces on Syrian fence line, and up to 10 were killed by Israeli or Lebanese Army fire during a similar demonstration on the southern border of the Lebanon nearby. The number of deaths, with accounts of throwing of stones and tear gas, be compatible with the familiar story of the conflict, was built in the years of Israel describing efforts to defend themselves. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu encouraged this narration Sunday, arguing that the demonstrators were undermining the existence of the State of Israel.
But those closest to the events are the makings of a new story in the day. Syria, the Lebanon Palestinians and Palestinian enclaves occupied Gaza and the West Bank approached positions Israeli gun Sunday without weapons are. If some teenagers threw stones, a protest leader said that was apparently not to attend workshops on non-violence, organizers arranged in what they call a new paradigm for the conflict. The goal, what appears to be building support, aims to reformulate the Palestinian Israel conflict under the same conditions that brought down the dictatorships in Egypt and Tunisia.
Massive non violent protests are winning international sympathy for the Palestinian point of view, and thereby forcing Israel to withdraw his army from territories occupied since 1967. As the dust result Sunday, Israeli officers acknowledged their vulnerability to the approach that is consistent with the strategy of Palestinian leaders to ask the General Assembly of the United Nations to recognize a Palestininian State in September. (See "a new Palestinian movement: young, networking, nonviolent.")
"What we saw today was the promo for what we can see in September on the day of the United Nations said a State: thousands of Palestinians walking toward Israeli checkpoints, the Israeli settlements and the fence along the West Bank and the Palestinians in Gaza with their bare hands for." show "an Israeli officer indicates time." "It's a huge problem." Well have to study this only happened today to do better. ?
Sundays protests marked the anniversary of the Declaration of 1948 Israels of a State, a day known as the Nakba, or catastrophe, of Palestinians who have lost their land to the Jewish State. The day is always the opportunity to protest and Israel had prepared for the disorders. But in the Golan Heights, Israel took of the Syria in 1967, heights only 30 to 40 soldiers were service where hundreds of Palestinians began arriving by bus and walking towards the fence. Troops have been ordered to shoot to maim. Four demonstrators were killed, and at least 100 scrambled in Majdal Shams, a Druze village so close to the Syrian border, he is known for Cree Hill, where separated families by closing get together to exchange news by shouting through non-mans land.
Less clear is how the demonstrators sailed through the Syrian security usually maintains strict control over the border area. Facilitated interpreted Israeli officials similar demonstrators access to a military zone as proof of sponsorship by the Government defeated President Bashar al-Assad. With the street protests threatening his regime in cities around the Syria, the reasoning goes, Al-Assad, found in the Nakba protests against an ideal opportunity to move the focus to Israel.
But Fadi Koran, an organizer of Ramallah in the movement of young Palestinians who made the promotion of the marches, said that his contacts in Syria were actually terrified at the idea of the Government of Bashar, who has taken steps to prevent some to go to the manifestations of camps for refugees near Damascuswhere they lived since who flee their homes in what is now the North of Israel. (See pictures of young Palestinians in the age of the wall).
Apparently, the Governments of other neighbouring States hosting large Palestinian populations, were aware of the plans of protest and responded with their own interests. The Egypt and the Jordan, which are treated with Israel, hinder the demonstrations. Those who are hostile to the Lebanon, facilitated their way into military zones. But Damascus appeared to be occupied with its own internal unrest, according to the Qur'an. "I honestly believe that a very large extent they took the Syrian Government by surprise," he said in time.
Demonstrators also gathered in Gaza and the West Bank. Even here, on a March toward the control point Qalandia near Ramallah, the Qur'an insists no stones were thrown until Israeli troops fired tear gas and then only by adolescents. But overall the crowd composition, featuring more old women and men as students, was a change from previous years, according to Shawan Jabarin, Al Haq human rights group.
"They say Arab spring gives people of encouragement and makes people feel that they can make a difference," said Jabarin. "The conscience of the people, you feel that it is something different." (See "Palestinians Mark Nakba with violent demonstrations.")
Also to encourage people in the street: the complete collapse of peace talks with Israel. If the Palestinians necessary additional callback, the resignation of former US Senator George Mitchell as President Obamas Special Envoy for peace was announced two days before the Nakba day.
"We have to come up with an improvement of non-lethal weapons," explained without doubt, an aide to an Israeli Minister. "But if we have a new approach to the peace talks and then we will have to deal with in September non-lethal weapons".
For their part, Palestinian demonstrators feel that they have found a winning formula. The main political factions, Hamas and Fatah, have been forced from their embrace by the same movement of non-violent youth who now ordinary Palestinians to unite shame of Israel in concessions.
"They include the path to freedom will be long," Koran says "but were will continue training to non-violence and would continue to walk in nonviolence until it is very clear in the international media who violate human rights."
