Walls

Walls SHAN Hai Guan is where he Chinese wall meets the ocean and the uselessness of building a wall as protection from thoughts, cultures and new ideas to enter into the soul of humanity, comes to a halt. We saw that in in Berlin, we see new walls hastily built in Palestine, where Israel- ruled by opportunists - tries to keep the truth out. Walls are porous, and anyway they can´t stop the great inequity that befell the Palestinians. One cannot build walls across seas, and we can´t stop walls shielding lies. If we shout long enough walls in Israel will fall as Jericho’s walls did and the rightful owner of the land of Palestine will win through.
