Via Solomonia, an interview on Terrorist TV with the leader of PIJ, who says the fence is stopping suicide bombings in Israel.
On November 11, PIJ leader Abdallah Ramadan Shalah granted a long interview to Al-Manar TV, Hezbollah’s television channel. During the interview, for the first time he admitted that Israel ‘s security fence was an important obstacle to the terrorist organizations (the “resistance”).
He noted that the suicide bombing attacks (istishhad) were the Palestinian people’s “strategic choice,” and were meant to “create a balance of force and deterrence” in the campaign against a superior enemy. Ramadan Shalah noted that the terrorist organizations had every intention of continuing suicide bombing attacks , but that their timing and the possibility of implementing them from the West Bank depended on other factors. “For example,” he said, “there is the separation fence, which is an obstacle to the resistance, and if it were not there the situation would be entirely different .”
Two things about this: Number one, how did I miss this report? And number two, this puts paid the theory that the fence is nothing but a “land grab.” It’s working. It isn’t just the IDF and special forces keeping the terrorists in check. The fence is achieving its objective.
May these murderers names be blotted out !!
My only objection to the fence is that it was not put far enough into Judea and Samaria.

It would be interesting to know if he actually referred to it as “the separation fence” rather than “the apartheid wall” or whatever.
Meanwhile, the Saudis have announced plans to build a fence or wall hundreds of miles long to block out terrorists from Yemen. The good-thinking people of the world will rise up to condemn this soon…any day now…just you wait.
What’s interesting, to me, is that the pal terrorists have always known that the fence works. that’s why they’ve worked so hard at a pr campaign against it.
of course they find it an obstacle, any time pro-pallie activists get so hysterical, it’s because something is stopping the terrorism
it’s not human rights they’re concerned with but anything that’s an obstacle to killing jews
