This Is a Story About Land and Segregation





The story about Palestine is about Oppression and Land. Critical thinking is key here, and it is way over due, but folks must look beyond their subjective lense and step into reality. We must look at the reality that Israel fears and the life that Palestinians must endure in the name of Israeli fear and livelihood. There are many contraditions, issues and concerns. Yet, there is one principaled problem: Palestinian people are being occupied by Israelis.

The Wall: a physical barrier that has separated Palestinian neighborhoods from each other in the name of security. Yet, this very wall has extended beyond the designated green line border to grab more land for Israel and include land that settlers have confiscated. Why is this ugly wall okay?
