Israel's Fence of Apartheid

.
Yeah.

Israel attempted to build a wall to separate the Israeli citizens from the Palestinians. Those in Israel know why. Its very hard to fight against suicide bombers, stabbings, just plain random attempts at killing us simply because we are us. etc. Those outside of Israel, who follow the mainstream media know -its all just apartheid with no reasoning behind it.

Now Egypt has built a wall to separate themselves from Gaza. A METAL WALL! Surely there is a brotherly explanation. Perhaps their love is so great, that this wall will help somehow. Surely there is a nice benevolent reason...

Frost, Mending Wall.

Frost's poem about walls between people never encountered the problems you face.

If the walls keep you safe, build more. The alternative is too deadly to contemplate.

Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Frost

You're walling out death, and walling in life. If others take offense, then they're indifferent to both.

First Domino,

I hope you come to Israel one day.

I would love to, Miriam. I'll never say never, but put it on my wish list.
