The walling up of Al Numan village in the illegally occupied West Bank

Al Numan village situated in the SouthWest bank between Bethlehem and Jerusalem, was ignored by Israel when it illegally extended Jerusalem's borders and occupied Palestinan land in 1967. The community of Al Numan are severed from the rest of Palestine by the Apartheid wall, yet they are not considered Arab Israeli so are forbidden from entering Eretz Israel as they have not been issued with the required blue card.
Listen to an audio report about the difficulties this small community struggles against.

THERE IS NO "WAR ON TERROR"

There is no "war on terror." The invasion and occupation of Iraq are not part of a "war on terror." Neither are the current threats and war preparations against Iran. The "war on terror" doesn't exist—no matter how many times the Bush administration cites it to justify its aggressions, no matter how often Republicans and Democrats debate how to best carry it out, and no matter how frequently it's referenced in the U.S. bourgeois media.

Why send 355,000 fewer troopers for a much larger, tougher, sure to get you killed job? The American war policies did not change. The answer is that the Americans had millions of pounds of a deadly microscopic “helper” called depleted uranium as a “force multiplier” deployed in Iraq.

"We don't have a clear-cut knowledge but the estimate we have made is some time between the beginning of the next decade and the middle of the next decade they might be in a position to have a nuclear weapon, which is a cause of great concern." BBC

In other words, "We have no evidence, but we're planning to bomb them anyway, in case they MIGHT, someday, think about trying to do something ...". This echoes exactly what the Israeli directors of this policy are feeding to their US counterparts.

This is not worth the senseless slaughter of countless thousands of innocent civilians.
