November 29, 2011 commemorate the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people.  It has traditionally provided an opportunity for the international community to focus its attention on the fact that the question of Palestine remained unresolved and that the Palestinian people are yet to attain their inalienable rights as defined by the General Assembly, namely, the right to self-determination without external interference, the right to national independence and sovereignty, and the right to return to their homes and property from which they had been displaced.

On that Occasion Wendy Jennings wrote the following letter:

          My five months in Palestine have changed my life. I have fallen in love with the land and the people here. I have been accepted into the community and taken in as one of their own, and I have made dear friends throughout Palestine. Palestine’s beautiful traditions and history have taught me so many lessons, including the value of family and history.

          My love for Palestine also causes my heart to break as I witness the oppression and persecution of these people who have loved me and accepted me so generously. My frustration with the American government, my government, has grown as I learn more about how deep and entangled America is in supporting the occupation of Palestinian life. The occupation is an inescapable part of life in Palestine; every day, something reminds us that the Palestinian people are not free.

          I stand in solidarity with Palestine because I know they are suffering under an unjust system but they will not be able to defeat this system by themselves. Solidarity from the international community is necessary to loosen the chains of injustice and finally give the Palestinian people the freedom they have been yearning for.

Also Jerry T. Lawler Ph.D shared this statement:

           As a psychologist and an American citizen who has traveled 5 times to Palestine in the last 10 years as a volunteer, I heartily endorse the UN International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People on November 29th of each year (UN Resolution 32/40 B, 1977). The people of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip are virtual prisoners of the occupation by Israel, an occupation fully supported by my country. The occupation violates the most basic human rights of the people here to live peaceful lives, to be treated fairly under the law, to have equal opportunity, and to develop their full potential as human beings. As a psychologist I am especially distressed by the psychological damage caused to children and adults alike by growing up and living under a brutal occupation. I urge people of the world to support an end to the occupation and a swift and equitable transition to a two-state solution to the conflict.
