Description
The Separation Wall in the West Bank introduces to the readers the Separation Wall that the Israeli government is building in the West Bank. It clarifies the declared and undeclared objectives of the Wall, and its role in entrenching settlement activities, annexing the land, and confiscating water resources. The advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) conceives the Wall as a violation of international charters and conventions.
Chapters of this book describe the sufferings inflicted by the Separation Wall on the Palestinians in the West Bank, especially the areas near Jerusalem or "Jerusalem Envelope." The book also focuses on Bil'in village's actions to resist the Wall, deeming it as a model for the Palestinian popular resistance.
