Israel plans to build walls around Palestinian towns

https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/news/middle-east/22911-israel-plans-to-build-walls-around-palestinian-towns

Media reports in Israel have reported that the army is planning to build walls around Palestinians towns and villages on the pretext that it will stop stones being thrown at illegal Jewish settlers.

“The army will build 9 metre high walls in the areas of Beit Ummar, Al-Arroub, Gush Etzion, and the areas surrounding Highway 60, south of the West Bank,” claimed Channel 2 TV.

In response, Mustafa Barghouti, the Secretary-General of the Palestinian National Initiative, told Anadolu, “The Israeli army’s decision to build walls around important and vital areas in the southern part of the West Bank aims to control large Palestinian areas for settlers. It also aims to isolate the areas from each other in order to prevent any chance to establish a Palestinian state.”

What Israel can't steal for its illegal colonies will just be ghettoized.

Never again has become a hollow slogan.

But there are some who are insistent on making such comments repeatedly.

One can speculate about the reasons.

No Democratic Party candidate would ever link to this group and here's your reason.

An extremist right wing site would gladly link to these comments.

Don't see how anyone sane can rationalize this.

Just stop the BS and come up with the two-state solution and this apartheid crap, and that's what it is, won't be necessary
