Junction next to Qalandia Checkpoint in Al-Ram, Jerusalem which will vanish after the wall is completed in this area. Most of the people from Al-Ram, who hold Israeli Jerusalem identity cards and are citizens of Jerusalem, will be cut off from their town. November 2004. --- 42. Burning rubbish in 'Ayda Refugee Camp. Its inhabitants are mostly refugees from the war of 1948 who were driven out of or fled Palestinian villages around Jerusalem. The wall here runs from Jerusalem like a bridgehead into Bethlehem. It passes 'Ayda Camp and insures that Rachel's Tomb, a holy site for religious Jews and Moslems which is a part of Bethlehem, will become an integral part of Jerusalem. October 2004. --- 44. A dead sheep in front of the eight metre high concrete wall next to the Palestinian town of Qalqiliya. The 43, 000 inhabitants are completely surrounded by high security fences and walls. The town has been turned into a ghetto which can only be entered through one Israeli checkpoint. Over 80 per cent of the town's land is either isolated from it or was used to construct the separation barrier. Eleven wells which provided 32 per cent of the town's water supply have been cut off. Since 2005 neighbouring villages to the south can be reached by a tunnel under a bypass road for Israeli settlers. Occasionally the tunnel is closed. October 2003. --- 46. A Palestinian in the Jerusalem neighbourhood of Abu Dis arguing with Israeli border patrol after crossing the wall. This 2.5 metre provisional structure was replaced by an eight metre high concrete wall in early 2004. October 2003. --- 48. Protective wall against Palestinian small arms fire in the settlement of Gilo, Jerusalem. In 2002 Palestinians from neighbouring Beit Jala fired on Gilo, which is built mostly on land taken from Beit Jala. Several Palestinians were killed and dozens injured. Harald Fischer, a German doctor who attempted to help the injured, was killed by an Israeli antitank missile from Gilo. Two Israelis were also injured. October 2004. --- 50. Wall at night in the Jerusalem neighbourhood of Al-Ram. November 2005. --- 52. Construction work on the separation barrier and a bypass" road next to the village of Nu'man east of Bethlehem. The inhabitants of Nu'rnan will be cut off from the West Bank and will become part of Israeli administered Jerusalem, although without Israeli identity cards they have no right to be there. Their fate is not yet clear. November 2005. // (u.v.a.m.) ISBN 9783865211170
