New and Old Walls of Jerusalem Response

I can imagine the reality of the wall described in this article clearly after hearing the student from Pyalara and from viewing James Graham's project about the wall. The Israelis argue that the Wall gives them protection, not really taking the time to understand what hardships Palestinians undergo because of its presence. To be honest, this makes me feel very frustrated with the situation. From what I have learned in making my final project and reading this article, I feel as though I empathize with the Palestinians' pain caused by the wall. It is crazy to me that one intended barrier can inflict so much suffering.
