Palestinians use bulldozer to ram Israeli fence

[P F Tinmore]

BILIN, West Bank (Reuters) – Palestinian protesters rammed a bulldozer Friday into a contested barrier near the village of Bilin, days after the Israeli army said it would finally comply with a court order and reposition the fence.

Israeli soldiers fired volleys of tear gas and jets of foul-smelling liquid to force the flag-waving demonstrators away from the metal fencing that keeps locals from their land.

The Israeli military tore down a watchtower overlooking Bilin Wednesday and said they were ready to dismantle part of the fence, four years after the high court ruled it should be re-routed to give Palestinians greater access to farmland.

Palestinian leaders and activists descended on Bilin on Friday to celebrate the decision, but said the protests would continue because much of the land remained inaccessible.

"What the village of Bilin has got back because of the changing of the course of the wall represents less than half of the lands that were confiscated," Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad told Reuters television.

Israel don't want all dem Syrian refugees floodin' across the border...

Israel to Build Syrian Border Fence
January 06, 2013 — Israel intends to reinforce its frontier with neighboring Syria amid growing concerns about the fallout from the Syrian civil war.

Israel plans to erect a new five-meter-high fence on the Golan Heights, captured from Syria in 1967, and fortify it with trenches, barbed wire and a road for army patrols. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told his Cabinet Sunday that the Syrian army has moved away from the frontier and that what he called "Global Jihad" has moved in. That is a reference to militant Islamists from around the Middle East, including al-Qaida. Netanyahu said Israel would "defend its border against infiltrations and terrorism."

Israel has stayed out of the Syrian conflict, but recently a number of stray mortar rounds have landed inside Israeli-controlled territory on the Golan, prompting the army to fire back. The incidents raised concerns that the Syrian civil war could spill toward Israel. But Israel’s biggest concern is that Syria’s chemical weapons could fall into the hands of groups like al-Qaida or Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Netanyahu said “the Syrian regime is very unstable” and the issue of its chemical weapons is a cause for concern. He said Israel is coordinating intelligence with the United States and other allies and is prepared for any scenario. He did not elaborate, but two months ago, the prime minister told European ambassadors that Israel will do everything to ensure Syria’s chemical weapons do not fall into the hands of terrorists - and that includes “a military option.”

Wow, it has been 9 years since that International Court of Justice Opinion was issued calling the Wall illegal to the extent it encroached within the borders of Occupied Palestine. Now, we need to see all parts of the illegal Wall bulldozed.

Too bad they don't feel it's " illegal" to start Wars for the purpose of destroying and killing as many as possible. Consider the source
