Why does the Israeli government and the Israeli public support the building of the Wall?
The Israeli government favors the Apartheid Wall because it furthers its agenda, policies, and actions of expelling the indigenous Palestinians for the colonization of land and resettlement of Jewish communities in Greater Israel. This is a clear goal of the Israeli government with the Wall, as the Wall carves away massive amounts of land in the West Bank, creating the largest single annexation of land since the 1967 Occupation; when completed, the Wall will leave less than 12% of historic Palestine for the indigenous population. Through building the Wall the Israeli government is pressing on with the forced expulsion of Palestinians from their land; the Wall attacks all aspects of Palestinian lifethe loss of land and water, demolition of markets and homes, restriction to movement, education and medical carethus making subsistence and survival difficult if not impossible and maximizing for Israel the sought after results summarized best in the Zionist adage of more land, fewer people.
