One
of the olive groves in Budrus. Budrus, a rural village in the West Bank about
20 km from Tel Aviv, and its surrounding villages are earmarked to be encircled
by the “security perimeter,” what Palestinians and people who work
in solidarity with Palestinians call the Apartheid Wall. |

The bulldozers
work daily in Budrus to prepare for the construction of the wall. The scars of
the bulldozers are seen where 50 meters of olive trees have been uprooted. The
cleared area demarcates where the wall will be built. Budrus and eight other villages
will be completely encircled by the wall with only one entrance/exit through a
military checkpoint. |
