Mas'ha Petition Against the Apartheid Wall
Stop the Apartheid Wall Campaign
www.stopthewall.org.il

The building of the Apartheid Wall in the Occupied Territories is now at a critical stage. The completed sections of the wall have already caused considerable suffering to the Palestinian population. Homes have been demolished, thousands of olive trees uprooted, acres upon acres of land have been expropriated, roads have been destroyed--all to make way for this monster. If Israel is allowed to continue building it, much greater hardships and undue suffering await the Palestinian population. Now, when the Palestinians are engaging in nonviolent protests against this unjust wall (which will bring no security to Israel), we—Palestinians, Israelis, and Internationals of the Mas’ha Peace Camp—ask you to help stop construction, NOW.

...Are we going to watch this process without raising any protest, just to discover after the event that we were guilty of “non-intervention” in a crime against humanity committed before our eyes? The signatories here refuse to accept the Wall as inevitable, and decry the cowardice of those who do not raise their voices against this injustice. The signatories launch an urgent appeal to democratic forces and governments, to the United Nations and humanitarian organizations, to the Jewish communities around the World who have kept the memory of their own past sufferings, and to religious, moral, academic and legal authorities. The construction of the Wall must stop immediately. World opinion must force the Israeli government to dismantle the Wall and return and restore the Palestinian land it has already appropriated and destroyed. This is not an object of “negotiation”. It is a moral and political imperative.
