Its not a paliative, and your logic leads to the worsening of Palestinian civilians condition as poster-children for BDS, that has a REMOTE chance of success. Don't ridicule good and sincere efforts. You sound cynical, and then MAKE cynical isolation the functional goal of dissent. If your agenda is to humanize the other, friendly CONTACT is what accomplishes that.

The political argument carries no weight on the ground for the IDF responsible to secure the fence. If shown widely, it would show hooligans gleefully cutting the fence for no prospective future political follow-up. Maybe they should continue it, with the small note that fence is an intrusion, and eventually that will be considered. But, as cause celebre, there is as much distrust engendered by the wirecutting as there is sympathy for the political isolation. For example, there was NO comment that the both sides of the fence are considered Palestinians' property. If that were stated (and accurate), then the absurdity the fence might make a different impression. The film that I saw included rational and not abusive treatment of those destroying property.
