Title: Security Fence presentation
1Saving Lives Israels Security Fence
2What would you do
- if terrorists were attacking your people?
3- In the past three years
- over 900 Israelis were murdered in terrorist
attacks.
4Palestinian terrorist attacks have included
Cafes
Buses
Family Cars
Private Houses
Restaurants
5- Most of the terrorists come from the West Bank.
- The Palestinian leadership is doing nothing to
stop the terrorists and even encourages them. - Currently there is no physical barrier that can
stop them. - There are no terrorist infiltrations from Gaza
because a security fence already exists there.
6Israel needs a temporary defensive measure to
block terrorist infiltration - The security
fence.
7What will the security fence do?
- It will keep terrorists out of Israeli cities and
towns. - It will save lives.
8The security fence will not
- establish a border of any kind.
- annex any Palestinian lands to Israel.
- change the legal status of any Palestinians.
- prevent Palestinians from going about their lives.
The fence will not create permanent facts on the
ground.
9And what is the security fence?
- Its mostly a chain-link fence
- supported by high-tech and other intruder
prevention systems

11The security fence is a fence, not a wall.
- More than 95 is a chain-link fence and not the
concrete barrier usually shown on TV (and that
only where a concrete structure is absolutely
necessary).
12Where will the security fence go?
- The route was determined by security needs, as
well as the local topographical conditions. - The route places a barrier in the path of
terrorists, as the Palestinian leadership refuses
to dismantle the terrorist infrastructure. - The final border will be determined by
negotiations.
13Land Use
- The fence will go on public lands, wherever
possible. - When private lands are used, they remain the
property of the owners, who receive compensation
for their use. Compensation is offered both in a
lump sum and on a monthly basis. - Palestinian farmers will have access to their
fields.
14 Humanitarian Needs
- Dozens of crossing points have been set up to
allow the free movement of people and goods. - Special gates will allow farmers to reach their
fields.
15- Most Palestinians will remain on the eastern side
of the fence. - Every effort will be made to avoid causing
hardship and interference with their daily lives. - The Palestinians will not be cut off from their
commercial and urban centers.
16 - There would have been no security fence had there
been no terrorism which has killed hundreds of
innocent victims. - Death caused by terrorism is permanent.
- Inconvenience caused by the fence is temporary.
17The right of Palestinians to freedom of movement
cannot take precedence over the right of Israelis
to live.
- Saving lives must always come first!
