"Dubbed terrorist sympathizers by some, martyrs by others, ISM (International Solidarity Movement) has seen three of its volunteers killed or seriously wounded by Israeli security forces in just over a month. That turn of events has focused a harsh light on the group's high-stakes brand of activism and raised some tough questions for organizers: When does gutsy activism cross the line into unwarranted risk?" (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article questions the tactics of activist groups in the Palestinian territories after some have died trying to prevent Israeli forces from carrying out operations.
