CWN - Latin-rite Catholic Patriarch Fouad Twal of Jerusalem has said that the Israeli security wall “disfigures the face of the Holy City.”
The Patriarch said that the wall contradicts the notion—embraced by Israel in the past—that Jerusalem is an indivisible city. The wall also interferes with free access to the city’s shrines, he said.
“If this policy of separation continues,” Archbishop Twal said, “each person will move to Jerusalem bringing with him his own wall, his barrier that separates him from the others.”
