A lot of the countrys fortunes we bring you the stories and developments that are rapidly changing the world we live in get breaks it was a slogan that one of the Prime MinisterBoris Johnson counting the cost on aljazeera. In 2002 the Israeli Palestinian conflict was further inflame as a contentious supporter was cast in concrete. The following film 1st aired 5 years after construction began and what its about describes as a separation wall. Friday afternoon in the west bank village of bela een and another demonstration against the Israeli Government that will take over half of the villages land. On our. Floor of the old girl formula for the. Not going to dinner in the fields in college all that it matters little what theyre called whether walls barriers or fences the intention is the say to redefine human relations into us. This is a story about division about the barriers that men erect in calculation or desperation to separate themselves from abos for others from them when diplomacy and conciliation fail this is the alternative. Well the name of the living. I call it a wall of shame because a 100 thousands of palestinians are without jobs because of the. Freedom of movement because of the World Without the means. And israel is. Using to see the population all the israel. Theres nothing new about socalled protective walls most ancient cities have them the ones we see today around jerusalem date from the 16th century. But the 21st century wars not only look different they serve a different purpose. The war is just over 700 kilometers long so far its costing 2000000. 00 every kilometer. It began in 2002 and it goes deep into palestinian territory in the west bank and jerusalem splitting neighbors and in circling villages. Its the biggest construction project in israel. And one that its supporters claim is necessary to ensure israels security. Dispensed is for security reason this fence is only for blocking the way of suicide bombers into israel. And yet plans for the division of israel and palestine predate the relatively modern phenomenon of suicide attacks the plans for decades in the making. Of the wall really follows of israeli policies for the last 100 years. Even before there was an israel essentially the problem is that zionism has claimed this country from the mediterranean to the jordan river exclusively for the jews there is no other people here for the for the israeli jews there is no a palestinians there is no other collectivity with other rights to this country this is our country exclusively period. The names of professor saw for the next Prime Minister sharon come up repeatedly in any discussion of the war. Is the ideologues who 1st drew the maps for a construction of a war in the 1980 s. But it was the politician sharon who put the reality on the ground. The day he was elected 2nd time with Prime Minister this very important evening he called me to bring him next day my met. With my proposal about the disengagement not to sit with him but to give him his my because my mood was that he and if you ask me how i did the map i would say 90 builds in big talk in my consideration demography to 3 percent holy sites and maybe 7 or 8 percentage only secure with my vision was that if we would like to keep it to wish Democratic State we cannot enjoy the luxury of having all of palestine very slowly because the mogul field is the most deterministic fact thought in at the moment. As the main Political Force behind the erection of the war it fell to israeli Prime Minister sharon to allay the fears of israels backers. Good fences make Good Neighbors he told us president george w. Bush astutely quoting american poet robert frost. Good words can make it goes all over the world see the war between me and my 2nd hols and we are very good friends. But palestinians and israelis have never been good labors and the war is a physical reminder of the end tip of the on both sides. And even the very name of this divide is a contentious issue israels official name for the wall is separation barrier to some it is a while to others it is a fence. Only 3 percent of the barrier is wall 97 percent is fence everybody wants to show in television the wall but you have to remember this well is it is against should think its only in places where people live very close to the fence and they can shoot through then you had to put it there was 97 percent is just transparent fence. But though a fence may have less visual impact it takes up more ground and. Its true that the majority of the structure is not like this the majority of the structure is electronic fans but only one component there is patrol roads that are detection. Trenches they are in razor wire its a very wide expanse. This is why the israeli authorities use the term fence but in fact. Part of the wall to me is actually worse than what you see here. The footprint is much wider and you have. 50 or 60 or 70 metres plus a buffer buffer zone and in terms of the damage it does to be environmental in terms of all of trees uprooted Irrigation Systems cause its extreme much worse than the wall part here and in many cases the israelis have taken land that has been passed down through generations of palestinian families. Spend all his life. But the arrival of the wall has brought disaster. Relief. That besieged look at the. Moment is a hit is about. Is that the one individual is that the one with the life you will feel nicer that the world will meet and with the destruction of the olive trees comes economic ruin as palestinians are left on able to work because they are forced to spend so long negotiating the divide. The bloody about. What ive been kid with. Bated. Been a baby because. Of being. In myself. With the love probably not with the listener ward. Who. Visit my physician with little. Visit they wanted to have. This was that. It was it was. Not i mean theres a particularly. With somebody element of his will. Because of it but if you had to say to me you really mean is that. It is driving people in the spirit because the Younger Generation no theres no fear. A livelihood for peace because there are cultural villages if theyre in a situation where only about 200 people or 300 people out of a population of 10000 for example somebody says weve been to bernie 2 or 300 people can get regularly to their land obviously you cant call it an agricultural village anymore. Your daughter did you did you want to. Plus a lot of this sort of. A lot of the. Big 3 are going to be a. Lot of the dog. Funny. In a minute. Not a lot of work the most authentic weve got about 100. 1000000 dollars do you what i mean you dont do. You have died not on a model movie about gonna. Do you. Model t. Were going to. Stop. No but ive got your model do we got your general you opinion or. One of them is out of a talk on whats going to happen. For as long as palestinian soft Economic Hardship its argued that there will never be peace. Equality in the excess bitterly in the polls if the palestinians will leave what is lately is even in legal terms infrastructural full statehood legal system. No mean education in. Their own bad states and the only. Sees only part 2 feet its whats inside the. If there will be equality 2 states equally dissimilar nations in the one occupying. This would make. For Good Neighbors but Good Neighbor all whole days not necessarily love. And yet it is argued that the wall exists to protect the economy or at least the israeli economy. Form 2001 until 2000 employee is lost almost. 4 percent for its g. D. P. In those years i mean no one goes to see even a movie and hes like no one. Was they did boss in peace way because the secu would be a situation. And according to the walls architect the security of the israeli people comes 1st you see you start from the end and you give me a clear picture of a very miserable because youre about people who suffer from the war go back from the beginning why we did it. Because. Because of this because of 1000 draws. The people of that work in kindergarden in. Israel so called separation barrier has provoked domestic unrest and attracted International Criticism the route the war takes has been deemed by the International Court of justice in the hague to be illegal and inhumane the issue of human rights that the International Court of justice brings up is the issue of proportionality have a right to defend your population nobody is saying no but you cant be disproportionate you cant completely oppress and destroy another population for the sake of your own population thats really the issue if the wall had been built along the green line which is the internationally recognized border between the west bank and israel israel has the right to build a. Green line within its own territory there will be about 50000. 00 palestinians on the israeli side of the wall when its complete and this undermines the security argument. That the revulsion expressed by many around the world is sheer hypocrisy. We dont know if your in even your of the create they have acted wars they dont tell you but go. To both the military last winter in morocco what theyll do in these bloody war peon bidding wars and me. And yet it is not just the International Community that has condemned the war even within israel there are many who believe that it isnt serving any useful purpose it was minister difference yall diane is deputy mayor of tel aviv but probably better known for being the daughter of moshe dyan the hero of the 1967 war in which israel alecs the west bank this current war she argues is not the answer. 1st its not effective. Because instead of being an obstacle to tell wastes it became another obstacle to peace in the sense that it is a provocation its not a peaceful. It became a political statement and its a very bad to deep feelings of additional occupation and also internationally a speaking it doesnt have legality from anybody in displace. And. Yet the israeli public went along with the idea of highly decorated army pilot believes they allowed themselves to be duped with catastrophic results. Naivety i am not using the war stupidity to signal everything to the people who are you know that 80 percent of the jews in israel are were working in the morning there oh my god i want peace oh my god so much of the left in israel is praying for you who will give you his mother for the peace. Oh my goodness. And stupid. Little to build a fence and all our problems will be ok. The wall is redrawing the map some israeli commentators see it as an attempt to define in wa and concrete a future 2 states solution by including within israel the land of the Palestinian West Bank which the illegal israeli settlements have been built but it is the settlers who stand to gain most from the. Its a kind of settlers wall because they have just the wall to the reality on the ground to their reality. That the setlist have dictated which is of course the full support of the government for many years. So actually if you look at the map. Of the wall what you see is that. The principle. Was maximum settlers maximum settlements minimum are of. Tribulation in israel so it it has also a demographic that mentions the meaning of the wall has nothing to do with Security Check the path yourself see that it is only protecting settlements that it is build based on future plans for expanding ment of the settlement we are not the fence not even protecting current settlers its going to protect future settlers and thats absurd. Many palestinians to believe the real purpose of the war is. That we are going into 2001 to our own so im going to suppose that it was for the demographic issue not know that to limit the feeling expansion because that is the freedom according to them 2020. Would be 60 person so by the wall he said that hes going to assure that things will be 50 percent. The wall is basically. A deal. We dont want to see the palestinians its a psychological barrier its not only that. Its actually a 2 state solution but the way i want. To get rid of the needs to get as many. Inside. And to give the israelis the feeling that if the palestinians within. His own. Expanding the future good life would be impossible and. There would no development so they were forced to leave. Voluntarily. Some are determined to hang on johnnys house is surrounded by the war on 4 sides why because it is right next to an israeli settlement. And he is adamant he wont be giving up. What about a public. Place but i want to behave in the one. I had to do for you had to do it. For jihad if a. Woman had. One of them. Like all politicians israels war both excludes encloses hardship which it would cause the excluded the palestinians was predictable. Worries many israelis is what the war has done to the inclosed how it has created something which in historical terms is thinkable. We are building the ghetto for ourselves you know where the ghetto is the nazis. Build a fence around us and. What are we doing our friends see ourselves were putting ourself in a ghetto. We should live like that. All continues to grow and in the present Political Climate its difficult to see a time when it will be dismantled those on the extremes feel that this is a good thing. I would like to see such a war that even. You know there is a story i heard from a former general. Who told me that he was sitting having coffee was a very old man old man. And he told. You know ive been here. With the british mandate and. Always you have. You. Treating us better than all the others but you are the worse. Because you are the only one who are taking all that. Is the settlements and the war so. Since this film 1st aired in 2007 israel has continued to expand the wall more than 200 kilometers despite condemnation from the u. N. And most recently. Its a measure of thats continued to cause even from some of israels own citizens among these protesters israelis. Jonathan polak is an israeli activist whos part of the protest movement against the wall. I guess. Like the vast majority of. People who come here who come here. Think that theyre right because we betray the notion that this place here is part of. Degree. So im with jonathan is the founder of on a case against the wall. If i come here because i believe that its wrong that israel built this thing i think its wrong and that if at all and i think its definitely wrong when israel believes it on peoples lands jonathan activism often puts them in direct conflict with the israeli army which was good. Now michael. Its the only thing. Thats thats like the farfetched i want to put it i dont know of the west coast or none of the customers of the government of president. Obama for. This article and a couple of them of the you know theyre not going to focus. On the money that you. Think were going to get when i think. About it. I think im going to. You know i think government you know it became clear that the policing power of israels Border Guards extends well beyond the wall even on land. As palestinians and it shows how its not on the about preventing people from going to the outside its also about controlling this site and how the army regarded supports legal rights or even according to their own laws the army can do whatever. They. Are you going to. After that. And government and the spectrum of time but ill go out of the city i must be able to get into. The zone. And they need all the ability to go. The poor. Dog my. God. Youre. Struggles full of pleasure. Of being.
