Meanwhile, translated from a much longer piece that appeared in Yediot Aharanot (Israel's most popular daily newspaper) last October:
"What is the logic of such an evil, mad fence? Allegedly it tries to separate "us" from "them". But in reality, it connects tens of thousands of Palestinians to Israel. It allegedly tries to stop murderous suicide-bombers, but in fact it creates for them a magnificent hothouse and does not impede them in any way from their current mode of action.
And to what purpose are billions of shekels, 3 billion so far spent ? all dedicated to ruin the lives of tens of thousands of Palestinians, to crush their dignity, destroy their property, dispossess them of their land?
Tragically, this is probably the idea. This is the secret of the wall: not security, nothing like it. Not war against terrorism, war against
reason. A slow-motion catastrophe. Gradual strangulation. An evil illusion that an entire people can be made to surrender and become a nation of slaves, to make Sharon's and Mofaz' wet-dream come true."

So be it, the mother fuckers ask for it and they are getting it.
If the people WANT 2 get rid of the terrorist they can, turn there ass's in.
If they want 2 starve the can, don't turn' em in.
If they want 2 see there kids go hungry they can.
