Love on the Palestinian Separation Wall

🇵🇸-2 When talking about #Palestine, we have to mention the #SeparationWall, a new "tourist" hotspot. In fact, describing it as sightseeing is really a great irony for the Palestinian people. But because of the isolation wall, more tourists came in to look for traces of the famous artist #Banksy, bringing another source of income to these people who rely on the tourism industry. But behind this is a story full of blood and tears. The Second Intifada occurred from 2000 to 2005. Because there were too many Arabs in Jerusalem launching terrorist attacks on Jews, #Israel had to build a high wall to cut off all threats. Of course, this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. Instead, it has built a high wall in the hearts of the people of the two countries. Finally, I would like to quote an article titled "Love" on the Wall of Separation: "My son fell in love with a girl from Jerusalem. child. But it was difficult for him to visit her because he needed a permit, but she was able to come to Bethlehem to see him. Even when she later became ill, he was unable to obtain permission to visit her, and four years later, she tragically passed away. She wrote down her last wish, which was that she wanted my children to carry her coffin at her funeral. He tried to get permission to do so, but was refused again, and he decided to go to Jerusalem without a permit. But Israeli soldiers caught him, beat him severely, and put him in prison for thirty days. He missed the funeral as a result, and later suffered a mental breakdown and was ill for two years. " 🇵🇸's Geography: The territory of Palestine (which is not a sovereign state recognized by the international community) mainly consists of two areas: #Gaza, which is currently under bombing, and the #West Bank, which are two unconnected areas within Israel. Residents on both sides are also unable to move freely. 🇵🇸Politics: Mainly Fatah (Palestine Liberation Organization) and Hamas (Islamic Resistance Movement). After the Battle of Gaza in 2006, Hamas defeated Fatah and took full control of the Gaza region. Fatah is currently in power in the West Bank.
