How the West Bank barrier has starved business and community

The Guardian
"A thriving wedding venue in Bir Nabala is among many concerns cut off by a policy that turned a thriving village into a ghost town. Inside the derelict wedding hall, bird droppings have stained the golden cloths that are still draped over dozens of tables. Outside, the road which used to carry heavy traffic from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem is now known as the street of ghosts. At its abrupt end, rubbish blows up against the 8-metre-high concrete wall that has killed the village of Bir Nabala."
