Dateline: Combatants for Peace

Sophie McNeill reports:
Many of the Palestinian members face heavy travel restrictions, while Israelis are often prevented from visiting many parts of the West Bank. Bassam Aramin is one of the Palestinian members who never made it to the meeting. His home town of Anata is cut off from the rest of the Palestinian Territories by army checkpoints and the separation wall.

BASSAM ARAMIN, (Translation): We need walls and bridges of love, peace and coexistence, not walls of racial separation.
