It’s an appalling thing, to destroy a family's home

J Street Friends, we must put an end to arbitrary demolitions of Palestinian homes: Demolition crews arrive, surrounded by soldiers. Families rush to save what they can. Women, children and men stand with tears in their eyes. Engines rev, walls begin to crumble, all you can do is look on hel…
