Maps The West Bank Barrier 2003

Perceptions What do you see? The West Bank Barrier 2003 Enclosure? Forced Annexation? Security?

Israeli Perspective “We have to decide upon separation as a philosophy. There has to be a clear border. Without demarcating the lines, whoever wants to swallow 1.8 million Arabs will just bring greater support for Hamas.” Yitzhak Rabin 1994

Israeli Perspective Suicide Bombings/Terrorism

Israeli Perspective 985 people have been killed by Palestinian violence and terrorism since September Suicide Bombings/Terrorism

Israeli Perspective There’s been a decrease in successful suicide bomb attacks from the West Bank. The barrier has saved lives!

“The construction of the wall being built by Israel, the occupying Power, in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including in and around East Jerusalem, and its associated regime, are contrary to international law.” International Court of Justice, July 9, 2004 World Court Perspective

“This is a historic day and a historic decision…The court ruling is a major blow to those racists who built the wall with the false justification of security needs.” Palestinian Prime MinisterAhmed Qureia, 2004 Palestinian Perspective

We oppose the barrier. It has separated many of us from our lands, our work places, and our schools—our lives have been severely disrupted!

Palestinians Protest July 2004 The West Bank Barrier 2003

Pope John Paul II’s Perspective The construction of a wall between the Israeli people and the Palestinian people is seen by many as a new obstacle on the road to peaceful cohabitation. In fact, the Holy Land does not need walls but bridges.

Prospects For peace?

Prospects For quality of life?
