Osher UCSD: Lords of the Landscape: Israeli Settlements

UC San Diego Professor of Communication Gary Fields presents a historical, cartographic, and visual account of Israel's settlement project in the West Bank and Gaza and argues that this program creates impediments to resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Members of the Osher UCSD audience respond to Fields in a lively Q&A immediately following the lecture.

That's interesting, because San Diego just happens to be sitting on territory that was 'appropriated', through the apparatus of the law, from Mexico. So, perhaps as a sign of honesty, the illegal settlers of that territory, would like to move out first, and show the evil Jews how it's done.

“We’ll make a pastrami sandwich of them. We’ill insert a strip of jewish settlement, in between the Palestinians, and then another strip of jewish settlement right across the West Bank, so that in 25 years, neither the UN, nor the USA – nobody – will be able to tear it apart”. Ariel Sharon (1973). Im and whole world is the witness they succeeded doing so!
