The Slow Creep of Israel's Annexation

by John Petrovato  December 09, 2004

 First they were told that they were building a wall between the two
populations for the protection of both. ….. Then they were told them that
the wall on their land was necessary for the protection of Israel.

Then they told the Palestinian farmers on whose land the wall rests that
they would have unlimited access to their lands……after which gates were
erected along the wall – gates which would be opened only three times a day.
….Then the Palestinian farmers were told that if they wanted to work their
land – now on the Israeli side of the wall – they would have to get special
Israeli work permits in order to pass through the gates which only opened
three times per day.
