	International Solidarity Movement: Support for Terrorism
		Ghassan Andoni is one of the founders of the International Solidarity Movement.
		An ISM spokesman claimed that Barclay had no way of knowing who the man was—although that would hardly justify her attempt to prevent a search of the ISM offices by an officer of the law who was searching for an identified terrorist.
		For example, when Charlotte Kates, leader of New Jersey Solidarity, gave numerous interviews to the press in the summer of 2003 in which she endorsed suicide bombing, other movement leaders claimed that she was not part of the ISM, and she herself claimed to have left the ISM and joined al Awda instead.

		He realized that a nonviolent movement must always be creative and experimental, not staying with patterns of behavior that once may have been successful but that, if made routine, run the risk of becoming rigid and mechanical.
		It was one of the most impressive gatherings of Palestinians, Israelis and Internationals in Bil’in, in what is now close to a year-long struggle against the theft of their lands by the Apartheid Wall.
		It was a successful day of unity and solidarity for the Palestinians and their supporters in the struggle against the Wall, but it was even more important for the people of Bil’in, who have continued their struggle without fail for almost a year.

		The International Solidarity Movement (ISM) and the Palestinian Solidarity Movement (PSM) are related and interconnected organizations that have one goal: the delegitimization of the Jewish state of Israel.

		For many, the International Solidarity Movement's blatant support for Palestinian incitement and rejectionism is the antithesis of a human-rights organization.
		This came despite the fact that ISM was discredited by the way it presented Rachel Corrie's death on its website - a sequence of photographs of Rachel Corrie was posted to 'prove' that the death was deliberate.
		The ideological and political agendas of ISM are camouflaged through the façade and discourse of human rights and the heritage of freedom fighters such as Martin Luther King.

		Amnesty International is "calling on the Israeli army to end immediately its air bombardments and shelling of civilian residential areas in the Gaza Strip." Amnesty says, "Israeli forces...must put an immediate end to the frequent, disproportionate and excessive use of force against Palestinians.

	International Solidarity Movement members killed by Israeli military
		The reasons we see ourselves as a resource and why we can be effective in helping the Palestinian non-violent movement is when they start to march or protest alone, without internationals there, the army will use lethal force against them.
		When internationals are present and make our presence known (we write signs in English, chant in English; sometimes we go surround the Palestinians; we identify ourselves with shirts), we've found that the soldiers won't use lethal force, and usually won't even shoot into the crowd with rubber bullets.
		Once, with about 250 international volunteers and at least as many local university students we stood arm-in-arm and formed a corridor on the road for people to walk through the checkpoint.

		The local ISM offices hosted two Moslem suicide bombers from the UK, who had entered Israel as "peace activists," only to blow a Tel Aviv bar to smithereens the next day.
		ISM is just ending its six week “Freedom Summer Palestine Campaign.” Ostensibly to “challenge Israel’s brutal occupation policies,” this sought to halt construction of Israel’s security fence, which ISM derisively labels an “apartheid wall.” To Israel, the fence represents a life-saver to keep suicide killers out.
		Some ISM volunteers object to the use of the term human shield to describe their work because, they argue, in a Palestinian context the expression more usually refers to forced use of captive Palestinians by the (Click link for more info and facts about Israel Defence Forces) Israel Defence Forces when searching Palestinian neighbourhoods.

		Kaplan, who has attended many ISM meetings in the United States, writes that the organization's volunteers are told to work "in solidarity" with Arabs who throw Molotov cocktails or rocks at soldiers.
		Kaplan says he knows of an ISM cell in Massachusetts, named Boston2Palestine, whose members are apparently "planning on going to the Middle East for a summer of fun interfering with the Israel Defense Forces and aiding the new Hamas government in the Palestinian Authority."

		The authors also used the opportunity to disparage the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) and claim that ISM purposefully puts the lives of young international activists at risk in order to attract media to the Palestinian cause.
		While the ISM’s taqqiya that “The FBI does not consider the PSM to be a terrorist organization nor does any other government agency in the US or abroad” is accurate– PSM is not a Foreign Terrorist Organization as defined by the U.S. State Department– its activists sometimes serve as accomplices to actual terrorists.

		This June I attended a “training session” of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM), an organization of volunteers whose purpose is to obstruct Israeli defense forces attempting to protect the civilian population from terrorist acts.
		In articles on the ISM website where they discuss their goals of dismantling Israel by supporting Palestinian terrorists they use euphemisms such as “legitimate resistance” or support for “legitimate armed struggle” while claiming that they are nonviolent.
		I was advised if I wanted to train with the ISM I needed to attend an orientation lecture at The New College of San Francisco which was being given by an Arab-American named Jess Ghannam, a psychoanalyst and professor at the University of California Medical School.
