PIJ terrorist admits the fence is working

Say, you know that “apartheid wall” that people keep telling Israel isn’t working, won’t work, can’t work, and needs to be pulled down?

The terrorists say it’s working.

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 ).

And that wasn’t the only instance. Read the rest.

    Possibly it’s due to the translation, but it’s interesting that the speaker refers to it as a “fence” and not as a “wall,” which obviously has stronger connotations.

    So let’s see, the Israelis would gain brownie points with the western media and chattering classes if they took down the fence, but they’d lose more people to murder bombers.

    And yet the fence is still there.
