Shufa is a village outside Tulkarm. For a while they had no electricity in the village. Apparantly they refused to have electricity installed some time ago because the village would not collaborate with their oppressor, Israel. This will soon change it seems; they will be provided with electricity in a few months. Having such a firm opinion for a cause is both fair and applaudable. There is an Israeli settlement next to Shufa; these two communities never interact with each other. Probably as a result of propoganda, solidarity and a strong sense 
of patriatism. Until just last year the Shufa Girls School used to be of mixed gender (both boys and 
girls attended there), but as from the next school year the boys will attend at the new Shufa Boys School. The School celebrated with an open day and awards for academic achievement. It would have been special to have a few sports or cultural awards. They had beautiful items of song, poetry, dance and theatrics. The underlying message was to achieve freedom for Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem.
