“The Green Line is dead and buried, and the Left can kiss it goodbye … Jewish life in Judea, Samaria and eastern Jerusalem is growing and flourishing, and there is no human power on earth that is going to uproot or move hundreds of thousands of Jews from places such as Ariel, Tekoa or Hebron.”
~Former Netanyahu aide, Michael Freund
Everything I’m showing you below happens in Hebron or suburbs of Hebron – the largest city in the West Bank, Palestine. The vast majority of Israelis even agree that Hebron is Palestine … it is not Israel except to the most extreme Zionists. So – let’s just get a feel for the occupation … the apartheid state that the Palestinians live under in UNDISPUTED territory. The West Bank is also not controlled by Hamas which is largely reputed to be a “terrorist organization” … it is run by the moderate Fatah administration. Illegal Israeli settlements are spread throughout Hebron … and now the Israelis are saying … yeah – that’s our land too. Sorry – move to Jordan or somewhere else because the Bible says so and oh … because we have all the guns.
Make no mistake about this – Americans are complicit in this violation on human rights. Barack Obama is complicit in this violation on human rights. The Israeli people are complicit in this violation of human rights. These people suffer … and American taxpayers keep giving Israel $3 billion to fund their fascist police state. Socialism for Israelis – Fascism for Palestinians … that’s how it works and no – life apparently isn’t fair. They’re trying to kill the Palestinian economy … limiting movement … tearing down olive trees and demolishing infrastructure and allowing illegal settlements on Palestinian land.
“Around 40 percent of the West Bank is effectively off-limits to Palestinians, with access highly restricted, due to settlements, outposts, bypass roads, military bases, closed military areas and areas Israel has declared as being nature reserves.”

In a good year, the olive oil sector contributes over $100 million income annually to some of the poorest communities. Olive cultivation also has strong social and political aspects, as the planting of olive orchards is often an attempt to prevent the confiscation of land by Israel or settlers and to protect Palestinian livelihoods.
While the olive oil sector significantly contributes to economic security and generates income and employment, numerous obstacles prevent the sector from realizing its full potential. A lack of adequate resources and neffective sectoral management coupled with environmental factors, poor production and quality practices have caused stagnation in the development of the sector.
What the Palestinian people are living in IS an occupation. For example … when you watch this video of a kid walking out doing absolutely nothing … an Israeli soldier tackles him …. he cries then another Israeli soldier kicks the kid. Now – the kid is 9 years old. Think of the world through this 9 year’s old eyes now.
The picture below shows an Israel occupation soldier observes as a bulldozer destroys a water canal built by a Palestinian man on his land near the Jewish settlement of Qiryat Arba’a in Hebron in the occupied West Bank on June 8, 2009.
Israel forces arrested the landlord and demolished the canal, which was allegedly built illegally near the Jewish settlement.
The photo below shows armed US Israel settlers in Hebron Palestine walk with US Israel occupation military.
In the photo below – an Israeli settler tosses wine at a Palestinian woman on Shuhada Street in Hebron. The approach of some settlers towards neighboring Palestinians, especially around Nablus in the north and Hebron in the south, has often been one of contempt and violence.
The photo below shows an Israeli occupation soldier pointing his gun at an unarmed Palestinian civilian man in Hebron yesterday.
The photo below shows a member of the Christian Peacemakers Team (CPT) based in Al Khalil (Hebron) in the West Bank. Art Gish lived up to the CPT’s slogan “Getting in the way” when he faced up to an Israeli tank in 2003 to try to prevent it from destroying a market in Hebron’s Old City.

The photo below shows Israeli soldiers bulldozed more than 30 Dunams (7.4 Acres) of Palestinian farmlands in al-Baq’a area, east of the southern West Bank city of Hebron, and confiscated irrigation systems used by the local farmers. (May 30, 2012)

The photo below shows a Palestinian mother attempts to comfort her 8 year old daughter who was shot (deliberately) in the face with a rubber coated steel bullet by Israeli troops.

The photo below shows Israeli troops arrest a Palestinian boy in March 2006 near Hebron as his mother attempts to stop them.

A number of fundamentalist Israeli settlers burnt, on June 4th, 2012, Palestinian farmlands planed with wheat, east of Yatta city, near the southern West bank city of Hebron.

This is why Israeli extremists think Hebron should be part of Israel.

(September 1st, 2010) around 150 to 175 Israeli settlers, many armed, constructed an illegal outpost at a new location in the Baqa’a valley, east of Hebron, and attempted to harass a Palestinian family. These Zionists just show up on private land and camp out trying to provoke and intimidate a Palestinian family.
