On 12th July 2003, the Palestinian solidarity movement in Manchester, UK mounted a protest against the West Bank Wall which the Israeli's are building. The wall is an attempt to contain the Palestinian resistance.

To graphically illustrate the monstrous nature of this crime, a wall made from cardboard boxes was built outside Manchester Town Hall. The wall was decorated with posters, photographs and painted slogans.

A rally was held in front of the wall and finally the cardboard was demolished by the protestors to provide a visual representation of what needs to be done with the real West Bank Wall.

The video clips on this page show all the stages of this protest.
