The leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad again admits that the Israeli security fence built by Israel in Judea and Samaria prevents the terrorist organizations from reaching the heart of Israel to carry out suicide bombing attacks


Overview

1. PIJ leader Ramadan Abdallah Shalah was interviewed in Damascus by the Qatari newspaper Al-Sharq. He said that the second intifada was currently characterized by rocket fire , which had replaced the previous stage of suicide bombing attacks. That, he said, was because the enemy [i.e., Israel ] had found ways and means to protect itself from such attacks: “… For example, they built a separation fence in the West Bank . We do not deny that it limits the ability of the resistance [i.e., the terrorist organizations] to arrive deep within [Israeli territory] to carry out suicide bombing attacks , but the resistance has not surrendered or become helpless, and is looking for other ways to cope with the requirements of every stage [of the intifada]…” (Al-Sharq, March 23, 2008 ).

2. It was not the first time that senior figures of the PIJ and Hamas, the two terrorist organizations which carried out the greatest number of suicide bombing attacks against Israel, have publicly admitted that the security fence makes it difficult for them to carry out suicide bombing attacks within Israel :

1) PIJ leader Ramadan Abdallah Shalah told Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV that the terrorist organizations had no intention of abandoning suicide bombing attacks but that their timing and the possibility of carrying them out from the West Bank depended on other factors. “For example,” he said, “there is the separation fence which is an obstacle to the resistance [i.e., the terrorist organizations], and if it were not there, the situation would be entirely different” 1 (Al-Manar TV, November 11, 2006 ).




Ramadan Shalah interviewed by Al-Manar TV:
“The fence is an obstacle to the resistance…” (November 11, 2006)


2) Mousa Abu Marzouq , deputy chairman of Hamas's political bureau in Damascus , was asked by a group of Egyptian intellectuals and politicians why the suicide bombing activity had decreased during since the Hamas government came to power. He said that “ [carrying out] such attacks is made difficult by the security fence and the gates surrounding West Bank residents ” 2 (Abd al-Muaz Muhammad, Ikhwan Online, the Muslim Brotherhood Website, June 2, 2007 ).

3. The security fence (which is still under construction) and successful Israeli security forces' counterterrorist activities are the two main factors behind the sharp decrease in suicide bombing attacks carried out by the PIJ, Hamas and other terrorist organizations. PIJ and Hamas leaders, when asked why there have been fewer suicide bombing attacks, repeatedly admit that the security fence is in fact an obstacle to their capabilities to infiltrate Israel to carry out suicide bombing attacks . That is in direct contradiction to Palestinian propaganda (including propaganda disseminated by the Abu Mazen-led Palestinian Authority), aimed chiefly at Western ears, which represents the security fence as an “apartheid” measure whose objective is to isolate and oppress the Palestinian people, and which demands that Israel dismantle the sections already built.

If you build a wall which separates your territory from that of others it could be described as defensive. However, if you build a wall straight through the middle of someone else’s territory and trap towns and villages in isolated pockets it is quite something else... Please don’t try to pass off the Apartheid Wall as anything other than what it is, a further seizure of Palestinian land.

"Terrorism has its price" and "Ramadan Abdallah Shalah" support the wall; it's watch towers; and it's function; the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. Should we be surprised by this? They are acting in the political tradition that has hegemony in Israel and has done since that States catastrophic and antisemetic creation in 1948. Avigdor Lieberman, now Foreign Minister, called in 2003 for the 10,000 Palestinian prisoners held by Israel to be drowned in the Dead Sea and offered to provide the buses to take them there.

if he could see the contemporary actions of the israeli state, i am in little doubt that hitler would be full of admiration for the ethnic cleansing and land and resource seizures that are being carried out.
the shame that those in power in israel are using the holocaust as an excuse to further perpetuate the cycle of violence is hard for me to bear.
i had members of my family die at the hands of the nazis, i am sad that we as a species have not learned from that awful episode.... instead we carry on the same patterns.
yes its true that there were palestine terrorist bombings but can you blame them.... against overwhelming force what else were they to do.
these attacks hardly dented israel, in fact they probably served mainly to reinforce the israeli position, giving them more of an excuse to continue their holocaust.
it is absurd to steal a nation violently and not expect people who were already there to try to fight back, even with the odds stacked against them.
the awful acts of terror perpetrated by palestinians pales into insignificance when compared to the hitler-esque actions of the israeli nuclear state.
i hope that there are no more bombings, i am sad when i hear of a wasted life of somebody driven to such desperation as to want to blow themselves and others up, it is truly a tragedy.
there is no way on earth that palestine can win a fight with israel, with its nuclear arsenal and american jets.
but the conversation and debate is another matter.
as long as israel can hide cowardly behind these relatively insignificant terrorist atrocities and continue to dishonor the memory of those jews and others killed during the nazi holocaust, then open debate will continue to be avoided.
open debate and fair discussion is the last thing israel wants, they know that no amount of plutonium will help them win that battle.
illegal israeli settlement continues to spread like cancer through what little remains of palestine.
zionists from the bronx carrying machine guns constantly harass and attack unarmed palestinians.
If a palestinian was caught carrying such weaponry in his or her own homeland, they would disappear without trace into one of israels dungeons.
so please don't bore me any more with lists of terrorist bombings..... i would be much more interested in such a list if it also detailed israeli atrocities, and i am certain that would be much, much longer.
let us hope that one day this absurd cycle of violence and revenge can be broken, breaking the cycle will be the hardest battle of all, and it will take the bravest among us to do it.....
