Building in East Jerusalem and the creation of new "settlements" have made the headlines internationally.
Needless to say Israel's security fence/wall is at the center of an international storm. This tour examines the reasons behind Israel's building of the fence and asks whether it has been built for security or political reasons.
Participants will discuss the effects and the problems involved, as well as the ramifications of building Jewish areas in East Jerusalem.
If you want to understand what is really happening between Israel and the Palestinians - this tour is vital for you to experience.
Are your groups hungry for the political facts? We are now combining good food with a great informative seminar. A Green Line Tour followed by a buffet lunch with Neil at his house in Tzur Hadassah, a small town in Israel that borders the West Bank.

"When we ate lunch with Neil Lazarus and his family, we had spent all of our time thus far with Palestinians. We vented our frustrations with the human rights violations on him. He was able to argue his position very well and remain respectful the entire time. As we left, he gave us leftovers, and told us to stay in touch. The magnitude of this didn't dawn on me until much later- two different groups, with different views, having a respectful discussion in the same house, and parting in friendship."

Another thank you letter
Your groups will benefit from Neil's East Jerusalem Green Line Tour learning and viewing the political facts on the ground. They will also get the chance to visit an Israeli home and have time to chat with Neil over lunch and ask all those unanswered questions about politics, living in Israel and more....
All tours can be built to the individual needs and time restraints of groups. A typical tour begins in Gilo, an area that became central to the conflict between Israelis and Palestinian in the second Intifada.
