6:43 pm
years rabbi eric sherman was protected by palestinian farmers when they were being harassed or attacked by really just the jewish side. mostly because of the filth and it's you sure. that's what you're doing if you mean the finger that what he was lifting his hands to fight but all of them said oh yes i wanted i got four hundred i dressed and now the rest i'm now. nothing like an arab giving the finger to a jew should have his hand cut off now it's gone completely crazy. coming here to guard the arabs one of. the. how often i've heard soldiers say well the high court is there we're here our presence here is what's essential not only sometimes sometimes we actually are as
6:44 pm
human shields. physically to stand between palestinian people threatening them and sometimes it's i am bored at work here. to keep the army out is to make sure they're doing what they're supposed to be doing. the settlers are protected by israeli soldiers and the soldiers themselves are sometimes sutlers. there's a set up here to meet you did you walk in comes down and when anyone tries to work there he tries to stop them but this time barely says the army. the strategy for the sutler's is to take over hill off the hill of the west bank. they do it by building small outposts and then expanding downhill closer to the palestinian farmers. legally they can't cross this line and.
6:45 pm
i would also like to see this document of his nation they came up with this line one year ago. they tried the same trick last year but in the end the farmers worked here. if you don't like it take your questions to the coordination office. simply this attempt to. slowly slowly take over another doing here another doom here from their point of view this is redeeming the land of israel and they'll do it by any means possible. piece by piece. we're trying in some way to help how things have gone and even get some of the lands back. we always go by the queues of the palestinians the army wants control they want no palestinian to go anywhere without

6:47 pm
the barrier of the wall is mainly built on occupied land in breach of international law according to the international court of justice. for the palestinians in the west bank the wall was salts in further land loss to israeli settlers. but there are israelis helping the palestinians to recessed the construction of the wall which we're doing here making only trying to block the walls to trying to stop protection i just would reach into more from where we're standing at the top of the wall right now there's about you about four or five kilometers into the way the bank i'll try to fix rather than recognize border international court of just going to take dispatch pictish the construction of barrier g.v.
