Israeli troops clashed with Arab protesters along three hostile borders on Sunday, leaving as many as 16 people dead and dozens wounded in an unprecedented wave of violence marking the anniversary of the mass displacement of Palestinians surrounding Israel's establishment in 1948. Hundreds of Palestinians moved across the Syrian border into the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights. The border breach set off several hours of violent clashes in which at least four people were killed. At the Qalandiya checkpoint on the outskirts of Ramallah in the West Bank, Israeli troops rushed in to disperse protesters, leaving several wounded. Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted that he will vigorously defend his country's borders after the mass infiltration from Syria.

History was made this week at the UN as President Mahmoud Abbas delivered the Palestinian bid for statehood and received a standing ovation as he addressed the General Assembly. Cheering crowds gathered in Ramallah to give him a hero's welcome as he arrived from New York. Addressing the rally he declared the beginning of the Palestinian spring. When he spoke to the UN assembly on Friday jubilant scenes played out across the Palestinian territories. But words quickly turned to violence on the West Bank border, culminating in clashes between police and Palestinians. RT's Paula Slier has the story. To discuss this story RT joined live from Ramallah by political activist Noor Odeh. RT on Twitter: twitter.com RT on Facebook: www.facebook.com

A separation barrier being built by Israel in the West Bank, the occupied Palestinian territory, will further isolate the village of al-Wallaja from the outside world, Palestinians say. The Hajajleh family, whose backyard is already bound by an electronic fence, is among those who will be cut off from relatives in al-Wallaja. So Israel is building him an $800000 personal tunnel as the family's only connection to the village. Palestinians say the move is not out of goodwill - but is part of a grander government plan to squeeze them out of another huge area of the West Bank. Jad Isaac, a researcher, says al-Wallaja is standing in the way of Israel's long-term plan to complete a ring of Jewish settlements that would surround the neighbouring city of Bethlehem. The tunnels would eventually become the village's only means of access to the outside world, he says. Tom Ackerman reports from the West Bank.

On Thursday, Palestinians in the West Bank town of Al Khalil held their annual grape festival. The event, which took place at Hebron, aims to boost economic activity in the city, which has seen a steady decline of Palestinian residents and shop owners in recent years due to the influx of Jewish settlers in the old walled city. Sahar Sharawi, festival organizer said, "Al Khalil is famous for grapes. According to the agriculture department in Hebron, grape growing statistics for 2011 is around 43000 square meters. The expected grape production for this year is 35000 tonnes, which means each 1000 square meter produces around 1 tonne." Although the Palestinian territories are well-known for the quality of their agricultural produce, its grape yards surrounding the town are some of the oldest in the world. Al Khalil's grape crop is the second largest in the West Bank after olives, and this season 35000 tonnes were produced. Mohammed Juwihan is a Palestinian farmer who specializes in organic grape products-- raisins, jams, syrups and 'malban' which is a traditional sweet. Like most Palestinian farmers, he faces many difficulties as a result of the continued Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Israeli checkpoints restrict the movement of Palestinians in and out of, and within the Occupied Palestinian Territories, limiting the ability of farmers to sell their products beyond local markets, while illegal Jewish settlements continue to expand.

Last week marked the start of the cucumber selling season in Jenin. The Civil Administration, in coordination with security forces and the Ministry of Defense crossings operators, works to ensure the marketing of 15000-18000 tons of cucumbers, which in turn supply Palestinian farmers with approximately 60 million NIS in revenue. The produce is significant to the 3000 families of Palestinian farmers in the northern West Bank who consider cucumbers their primary source of income, as well as for Israelis wherein 60% of their cucumbers are brought from Jenin.

From Al Khalil, in the West Bank, Faisal Shahada, an 81-year-old Islamic calligrapher, has seen his income double during the month of Ramadan, because customers are keen to purchase his artistic renderings of Quran verses to hang in their homes during the holy month. Mr. Shahada said, "I started my career - it was my hobby to know Arabic calligraphy when I was in the second or third class. I was around 10 or 11 years old. God gave me this hobby, I wanted to write" Mr. Shahada, who began his career in 1950, is eager to pass on his talent to young, aspiring calligraphers, because it is a skill in popular demand in the Palestinian territory, despite tough economic times. He added, "During Ramadan we work hard to write these statements for the people to enjoy them in Ramadan. When I write these words I feel closer to God. This is worship" Elsewhere in the West Bank, the month of Ramadan is made difficult for many because of the high unemployment rate; the United Nations reports that around a quarter of West Bank Palestinians are unemployed.

An Israeli man has been killed and three others were wounded when shots were fired at their car in the occupied West Bank. The Israeli military said the vehicle was one of several that had gone to the holy site of Joseph's Tomb near the West Bank city of Nablus without permission. Witnesses said Palestinian police officers opened fire on the vehicle. The Palestinian governor of Nablus said warning shots were fired first. Ultra-Orthodox Jews frequently defy a military ban on visiting the shrine which is in Palestinian controlled territory. ... www.euronews.net

During the summer Lisa Fender and I taught storytelling, cinema photography, video editing to the theatre's instructors. As a final project we all worked on this video telling people what The Freedom Theatre is and what it does. Lisa even managed to get 'detained' in a detention centre by the Israeli military while doing some of the filming for this piece.

Settlement expansion in the Occupied Territories of Palestine is about more than constructing houses for Jewish settlers. Palestinian farmland is being turned into industrial space. Illegal outposts on Palestinian land are protected by Israeli military. Roads, if Palestinians are allowed to drive on them, are often blocked without warning. I toured Illegal settlements and outposts in the West Bank with Dror Etkes.
