The Israeli West-Bank barrier is a barrier being constructed by the State of Israel, consisting of a network of fences with vehicle-barrier trenches surrounded by an on average 60 meter wide exclusion area (90%) and high concrete walls up to 8 meters high (10%).[1] It is located mainly on Israeli-occupied territories in the West Bank and partly along the 1949 Armistice line, or "Green Line" between Israel and Jordan which now demarcates the West Bank.
WALL
Synopsis:
"There it is. Not just a wall. A wall would be a fact. But this wall is a philosophy, what one observer has called a political code for shutting up shop." Since he first visited Israel and the Palestinian territories to write Via Dolorosa which the Royal Court presented over 200 times in the West End and on Broadway, David Hare has regularly been back in the region. Now he offers a searching 40-minute study of the Israel/Palestine separation barrier which will one day stretch 486 miles and be over four times as long as the Berlin Wall and in places, twice as high. Double bill with Berlin

Please note the area above and to the right of the "green line" is the Illegally Occupied West Bank of Palestine. most of the area on this map is now illegally annexed to Israel.
Haven't we seen this sinister scene somewhere before in History? Didn't we say IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN?
Just look at the arrogant use of stolen Palestinian Water at 7m 47 secs - Palestinians have to BUY their own stolen water back from Israel at inflated prices to cover the SUBSIDY givent to Jewish settlers living on their STOLEN land....
More evidence that Apartheid Israel has no intention of allowing Arabs to remain in East Jerusalem
please BOYCOTT Veolia, CONNEX and Alstom (contact: Heriberto Biarte)& the French company who will run this Apartheid light railway, who are building it.
Read this story and maybe you'll think rather than boycott CONnex (appropriate name!) we should actively encourage them to operate for the illegal Israeli settlers.
Narrated by: George Roger Waters (born 6 September 1943 in Great Bookham, Surrey) is an English rock musician. He is best known as the bass player and one of the main songwriters and lead singers in the English rock band Pink Floyd from 1964 to 1985. Following his split with Pink Floyd in 1985, Waters began a solo career, releasing three studio albums, one soundtrack, and staging one of the largest concerts ever, The Wall Concert in Berlin in 1990. In 2005 he released an opera, Ça Ira, and joined Pink Floyd at the Live 8 concert in London for their first public performance with Waters in 24 years. He kindly agreed to narrate the U.N. film about the horror of the West Bank Wall in Illegally Occupied Palestine.
There is an incredible film available by the French-Israeli film-maker Simone Bitton called "Wall" - this film shows some of the humanity and secular pragmatism which incredibly still exists on both sides of this monstrous barrier, but most of all it shows how current Israeli Government thinking is creating more grief and suffering, more hatred and more fear on both sides.

Gisha is an Israeli not-for-profit organization, founded in 2005, whose goal is to protect the freedom of movement of Palestinians, especially Gaza residents. Gisha promotes rights guaranteed by international and Israeli law.
Since the 1967 occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Israel's military has developed a complex system of rules and sanctions to control the movement of the 3.4 million Palestinians who live there. The restrictions violate the fundamental right of Palestinians to freedom of movement. As a result, additional basic rights are violated, including the right to life, the right to access medical care, the right to education, the right to livelihood, the right to family unity and the right to freedom of religion.
Gisha, whose name means both "access" and "approach," uses legal assistance and public advocacy to protect the rights of Palestinian residents. Because freedom of movement is a precondition for exercising other basic rights, Gisha’s work has a multiplier effect in helping residents of the occupied territories access education, jobs, family members and medical care.
As part of its legal work, Gisha represents individuals and organizations in Israeli administrative proceedings and courts. Gisha’s legal activity is based on Israeli law, international human rights and humanitarian law.
As part of its advocacy work, Gisha reaches out to members of the public and opinion-makers using publications in various media, in order to promote awareness and sensitivity for human rights in the occupied territories. Gisha also advocates directly before decision-makers to promote policies that respect human rights.
Gisha is operated by a professional staff and guided by a board that includes legal academics and practitioners, women and men, Arabs and Jews, who have helped shape Israeli human rights law through their advocacy and writings.
Gisha is registered in Israel as an independent, non-partisan, not-for-profit organization. Gisha is generously supported by donations from Israel and abroad.
