Two Palestinian Villages Ask Susan Sarandon to Repudiate Leviev over Israeli Settlements

Dear Ms. Sarandon, We felt sorrow when we learned that you accepted Lev Leviev’s invitation...because we respect you for your support for human rights...Lev Leviev is building Israeli settlements on Bil’in and Jayyous’ land, and is also building in the settlements of Har Homa and Maale Adumim around Jerusalem, in violation of international law. Leviev is destroying the olive groves and farms that have sustained our villages for centuries, and is profiting from human rights abuses.
