Old and New Walls in Jerusalem
Throughout the reading I could only think of one thing, how wrong that the wall is. As discussed in the reading the wall in inhumane and is used to separate things of unequal qualities. I can only think that this is very similar to the ways Jews were quartered off during WWII and put into ghettos. This is the same concept they are sectioning off the city and forcing Arabs to move into the sections for “safety” reasons. I don't see how the Jewish Israeli government can do this while thinking they are don't good. One would think they would recognize such inhumane actions because of the events that their ancestors faced which led to the founding of the Israeli state.
