Note:
Israel has the right of self defence. Not only a right, but an obligation to defend hercitizens.
Some questions, however, remain to be answered:
Why is fence built deep inside Palestinian territories, rather than on the Green Line?
Will this path, designed by Sharon, provide more security? or is it part of a totally differentagenda?
Background
The second phase of the Palestinian uprising against the Israeli occupation startedon September 2000, after the failure of the Camp David summit between Ehud Barakand Yassir Arafat.
After several suicide attacks in Israeli cities, the public started applying pressureon the government to provide security.
After all actions aimed at breaking the Palestinian spirit, while maintaining theoccupation, have failed, the government caved in to public demand, and started building aseparation Wall.
The natural path was the green line – the border before the occupation started in 1967. Sonatural, in fact, that many did not even raise the issue of the path.Some Israelis still believe the Wall is being built on the green line.In fact, Sharon is building a Wall that is cutting deep into Palestinian territory (latestmap) Is it necessary to uproot 115,000 Palestinian olive trees in order to “separate betweenus an them” ?
Is it necessary to separate thousands of Palestinians from their land?
Is it necessary to confiscate 37 wells that provide 4 million cubic meters of water, and about25% of Palestinian territories?
When the Eastern Wall is built, the confiscation will amount to approximately 45% .
It is interesting to note, that the Wall planned by Sharon will annex the most fertile and richland,leaving the Palestinians with only 40% of their agricultural land. Visit one of these sites tofind out the real reason for creating the Wall.
