Description: The Israeli's call it the Security Fence or the Separation Barrier. The Palestinian's call it the Apartheid Wall or Discrimination Wall. It is constructed of a combination of 36 foot high concrete blocks and electrified fencing. The Wall has been condemned by the International Court in the Hague on human rights issues. Others praise the sharp decline of terrorist bombings since the beginning of its construction. The Israeli government contends that it is temporary and not the redrawing of 1967 Armistice line, however, Palestinians see more and more of their lands in the West Bank annexed by its placement.

Deeply poetic and thought provoking

Sometimes the smallest detail in a larger scene brings an iconic or symbolic focus to a picture. Rock in hand - the signal of struggle and confrontation, V for victory- the passionate intent that directs the struggle the ever present looming shadow of a guards tower along the wall that precipitates the struggle : all characters in the geopolictical and ideaological struggle the Occupied Territories confront us with each day .
This is one of the best pictures on this site .
