On April 20, the Holy Land Trust and the Popular Committee Against the Wall dedicated their weekly nonviolent resistance to the victims of the Virginia Tech massacre. Thirty-two olive trees were planted on the land of the village Joret Asham'a, which will soon be expropriated by Israel's Wall. The Palestinians were joined by Israeli and international activists, as Israeli soldiers surrounded and videotaped them.
