Apartheid policies in the West Bank
Re “Residents Shut Out of West Bank,” Oct. 21
Thank you for your report exposing continued practices of apartheid committed by Israel against the people of Palestine. All of us who follow this conflict know this is just another episode in Israel’s Machiavellian plan to cleanse Palestine of its indigenous population so Israel can steal what little is left of the land of Palestine.
It takes chutzpah for Israel to think it has the right to control every aspect of the daily lives of the Palestinians. Unfortunately, Israel is up to the task, and as usual the U.S. turns a blind eye to continued human rights violations on the part of Israel against its neighbors that would never be tolerated if the perpetrator were any other so-called democracy.

Show one tourist who can stay longer than his tourist visa stipulates in the U.S. to be called a resident. If not, why should anyone be called a resident anywhere else? This is propaganda.
