Jerusalem patriarch Michael Sabbah planted an olive tree in front of the
soldiers garrisoning the Special Fence building site in Christian village
Aboud.

experience" with this words Michael Sabbah, Patriarch of Jerusalem, after

building site on Aboud land. The march stopped three hundreds meters from
the excavators in front of the soldiers blocking the access to the building
site. There the Patriarch led a short worship and then planted an olive
tree, symbol of the hundreds of trees that will be destroyed by the work for
the Special Security Arrangement Area near Bet Arye and Ofarim settlements.

The Patriarch affirmed: "with our faith and love, we demand the
disappearance of the Wall and we affirm that is a mistake and an attack
against our lands and our properties, a mistake and an attack against
friendly relationship among the two people. ( ) In your faith and your love
you shall find a guide in your political actions and in each resistance
against every oppression. You may say that love is an unknown language by
politics, but in spite of this, you shall do it possible!"
After Patriarch's departure, one hundred people stood in front of the
soldiers singing slogans against the Wall. An Israelis pacifist was arrested
without charge in spite of no violent actions had happened between soldiers
and demonstrators,.
