The Israeli West bank barrier aka Wall of Aparthied or Racial Segration wall was erected by the Israeli government as a security barrier against terrorism. The amount of suicide bombings in the holy land has indeed decreased but in reality this concrete snake has achieved so much more. Reduced freedom, loss of land, restricted access to water, medical services and education for the Palestine population.
A section of the wall is a dedicated protest to this oppression. Banksy, an anomymous street artist painted 9 images in recognition. Another heartbreaking section tells stories from Palestinian women.
A visit to this border is a truly a raw emotional experience. Will mankind ever learn?
