WAFA: Jews inside the green line are “settlers” hiding behind walls and fences

The following is a description by Moroccan author Mohamed Miloud Gharrafi, who lives in France, of his visit to “Palestine” -Ed.

“We visited other places inside the so-called ‘Interior’ (i.e., Palestinian term for Israel), such as Nazareth, Tiberias, and a number of villages whose Palestinian residents were uprooted from them, who were replaced by Jewish settlers. On the way to each city or village our eyes were captured by the settlements and their guards from the Israeli army. The sight arouses pity and ridicule towards these settlers, and towards the Israeli military man who stands like a statue next to each gate. How long will they continue to hide like this behind walls and barbed wire fences? Every time I saw a settlement encircled by a wretched wall, I said that they are imprisoning themselves. In the West Bank we got to know the suffering of the Palestinians while crossing between their cities to their villages.”
