The Israeli High Court on Tuesday ruled that the path of the Apartheid Wall on lands belonging to the West Bank village of Bilin must be changed. In a unanimous decision, the justices ruled that the route of the Wall through Bilin’s lands had been planned based on the needs of the illegal Israeli settlement Matityahu East and had no security rationale. This ruling comes after nearly three years of weekly nonviolent demonstrations. The International Solidarity Movement, which has been involved in supporting Bilin’s resistance for the past three years, issued this statement.
