(UPI/Washington Times) Joshua Brilliant - According to Lt. Col. Shai Brovendeer, coordinator of the operational aspects of the new security fence, Israel is planning several changes in its barrier through the West Bank to alleviate hardships for Palestinians. "This fence was put up in haste. We couldn't wait," said Major Sharon Feingold, an army spokesperson. "People were dying by the hundreds in this country, so we built the fence and...it saves lives. Today, when we have a better sense of security, we can sit back and relax and look at what we've done and...mistakes will be corrected."
