Groups that advocate the right of Palestinians to return to their original Israeli homes are organizing a “Summer Camp in Palestine” in an Israeli Arab town. The first “Bridges to Roots” camp — for Palestinian youths from Israel, the West Bank and abroad — will “ensure ongoing communication and interaction among the younger generations of the Palestinian communities in Diaspora, and for the purpose of entrenching the spirit of belonging to Palestine,” says a release from the Palestine International Institute and the Association for the Defense of the Rights of the Internally Displaced in Israel.
