Every friday morning, the past several months, Palestinian residents of the village Ni’ilin protest together with Israeli and international activists against the seperation fence which is being errected west of the village.

The fence, a source of heated discussion which I’d preffer not to get into at the moment, attracts a lot of media attention and I, as a student, felt I had to go and witness the ongoings and document my point of view of the events.

Looked at through this slideshow alone, the situation can be misunderstood as a simple case of military oppression and civil uprising.
But obviously the situation is not such and that would be a grouse simplification which can only lead to misunderstandings.

So I ask you to view this slideshow with an open mind.
