A fence. A trench. However it's described, the vast barricade being erected along Israel's border with the Palestinian West Bank is rapidly altering the political, social and economic landscape of a struggle that has defied attempts at peace for a half-century." (SUN-SENTINEL) This article discusses the arguments for and against the security barricade between Israel and Palestinian territories. "For Arabs and Muslims around the world, Israel's occupation of Palestinian lands is the central conflict between the Judeo-Christian West and the Islamic world. From their perspective, the wall is a powerful symbol of that domination. But to Israelis, the issue is just as stark--the security of a tiny, narrow country surrounded by hostile neighbors."| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due |
