BREAKING RANKS: Meeting with Israeli Refusenik

5 pm Sunday, 6 August
LHMU Auditorium, 187 Thomas Street, Haymarket

An opportunity to meet and talk with Rotem Mor and Phil Reiss, Israeli and Australian, jailed and shot for standing against their governments and the occupation of Palestine will speak out about their experiences.

Rotem Mor became a conciencious objector in 2002 at the age of 20 and spent a month in jail for refusing to continue his service to the Israeli army.

Phil Reiss was shot in the back of the head by an Israeli "Rubber Bullet" at a non violent demonstration in the West Bank. Reiss spent days in hospital after the bullet caused a hemorrhage in his brain

I go to sydney and nothing is happening so I don't get to meet any comrades. I come back up to Gold Coast and I miss a chance to meet Rotem Mor and Phil Reiss.

Don&#39;t blame us, it&#39;s the allure of muddy, scrappy, radical soccer&#33;
