Israel's Shame

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Wednesday October 10, 2007 13:40author by Miriam Report this post to the editors

Birth and death at the checkpoint

A doctor gives an account of the condition of the Palestinian people.

Le the usual Israeli state defenders say what they like, they can only seem evil and twisted in the light of Dr Asad Khan' s report from Palestine. A quote:

"At Huwwara checkpoint near Nablus, we saw a queue extending for half a kilometre out of the cramped shed and into the merciless sun. One by one, the Palestinians were called forward and their documents inspected. Some got through, others were turned back. Depending on the mood of the soldier. The explanation given for the checkpoints- 'security'- is a lie, as the barriers mostly stand between Palestinian cities and towns, not between Palestine and Israel.
Israel, through its system of 700 checkpoints, roadblocks and earth mounds in the West Bank strangles the Palestinians' freedom of movement. 68 women have been forced to give birth at checkpoints since the year 2000 ( www.ifamericansknew.org). Half of the babies involved have died, as have 4 of the women. Many of the babies born have suffered irreversible brain damage. Imagine being the helpless husband or son of a woman forced to endure the pain of labour on the baking earth at a checkpoint- with an armed soldier looking on- and you will begin to understand how suicide bombers are born.
