The Security Barrier and Checkpoints - A Question Of Life Or Death

The security barrier erected between the West Bank and Israeli cities has led to a sharp decrease in suicide bomb attacks inside Israel.Yifat Alon lost her mother and niece in a suicide bombing in Jerusalem in 2002. Radi Abu Aisha says his brother died while waiting to pass through a checkpoint two years ago. The United States has asked Israel to remove IDF checkpoints as a gesture to the Palestinians that will allow them unrestricted movement. For Yifat they are a vital way of preventing terrorists from perpetrating attacks, Radi believes they will only lead to death and destruction.11/25/07

It's quite sad that so many Israelis feel that caging the Palestinians will reduce terrorist attacks. There are two possible solutions to this problem... 1) treat them as equals in your own land, or 2) give them back their land.

These ghettos of economic repression and subjugation to collective punishment for the acts of extremists is reprehensible. Shame on you Israel.

@bgturk Its mostly on the 67 border. Parts that are not can, be moved when there is negotiated peace between Israel and Palestinians.

@jaymz0 We gave them back Gaza and what did we get in return? More rockets!! Land-for-peace or land-for-Terror?

it's funny that everyone blames israel for their problem but yet you dont see egypt nor jordany helping them, i wonder why?.

just a month ago egypt threw back to gaza the palestinans who went into egypt.

and if they give back the land then it should be to Turkey, it was theirs before the britz.

I subscribed to this channel thinking I would hears some facts from the Israeli side. All I see is propaganda.

First of all the so-called "security barrier" is a wall which is placed entirely within the West Bank. Its sole purpose is to turn Palestinian land into an open air prison.
