Elections bring change but the Occupation
endures, Anna Burén from Sweden
10 January 2005
The Palestinian
people have voted and selected a new President. As expected, Mahmoud Abbas
(Abu Mazen) emerged victorious. Walking in Abu Dis, on the eastern
outskirts of Jerusalem, I noticed new changes at the Bawabe barrier, where
people walk through the garden of a monastery in order to access the city.

"This wall which I see here reminds me of the Bantustans which the
Apartheid regime in South Africa tried to create. It is my dream that one
day Israelis and Palestinians in their thousands will pull down this wall
which separates them".
UNRWA: Abu-Dis Profile and Wall Impact
"Khalil Mahmoud Ahmad Mohsen,
from the town of Abu-Dis, was arrested on 12 January 2005 and is awaiting
trial. He was shot by a Dumdum bullet in the left leg and a regular bullet
penetrated his right leg at time of arrest. He was left to bleed for about
one hour before he was transferred to a military camp near the village of
Yatta in Hebron District. Military authorities then transferred him to
Sirouka Hospital in southern Israel where he stayed for four hours. He was
taken back to the same military camp near Yatta and was left in the open
cold air until 8:00 Am the following morning. He was then transferred to
the 'Atzion detention station. There, authorities refused to admit him and
was taken to 'Ofar, a military detention compound near Ramallah. He stayed
there one day before he was transferred again to Ramla Prison Hospital."

of Settler Roads and Tunnels
The Grassroots Palestinian Anti-Apartheid
Wall Campaign, February 26th, 2005
A spider network of settler roads, bridges
and tunnels continue to surround Palestinians villages and towns further
ghettoizing them. The Occupation Forces have begun constructing 24 tunnels
for Palestinian use while they remain barred from settler-only roads. Such
roads, and the obligatory security zones which accompany them, separate
Palestinians from their lands, isolating villages and towns from each
other. Six tunnels are already completed, the rest under construction or
pending.
