				Berlin vs Israeli Apartheid wall in Palestine | But one day.. this wall WILL FALL

<p><strong>Introduction</strong></p>
<p>Israel’s West Bank Barrier has become the most visible manifestation of the Israeli military occupation and most pressing issue for Palestinians. Often misleadingly called a “fence”, the considerable structure snakes through the West Bank on Palestinian land, leaving Palestinians on the wrong side isolated from their land, extended families, and way of life.</p>
<p><strong>One year on: The illegality of the Wall</strong></p>
<p>One year ago on 9 July 2004, at the request of the United Nations, the International Court of Justice in The Hague issued an Advisory Opinion on the legal consequences of Israel’s construction of a wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The Court made clear that the construction of the Wall and the settlements were illegal. The Advisory Opinion of the Court represents the most authoritative statement to date of the content and applicability of international law concerning Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory. On July 10, 2005, the Israeli cabinet approved the construction of the Wall in Jerusalem and vowed the completion of the Wall by September 2005.</p>
<p><strong>Case before the International Court of Justice </strong></p>
<p>On 8 December 2003, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted a resolution (A/RES/ES-10/14) in which it requested the International Court of Justice to “urgently render an advisory opinion on the legal consequences arising from the construction of the wall being built by Israel, in the occupied Palestinian territories, including in and around East Jerusalem, considering the rules and principles of international law. The Request for an Advisory Opinion was transmitted to the Court by the Secretary-General of the United Nations in a letter dated 8 December 2003 which was received in the Registry on 10 December 2003. The ICJ ruling against the Barrier was rendered on 9 July 2004.</p>
<p><strong>Humanitarian Impact and Legal Implications</strong></p>
<p>These documents and overviews provide analyses and assessments of the humanitarian impact of Israel’s Apartheid Wall and its legal consequences. Reports included assess impact on movement, education, health, refugees and legal consequences in terms of international humanitarian law.</p>
<p><strong>Latest News from StopTheWall.org</strong></p>
<p>The Anti-Apartheid Wall Campaign’s mission is to Stop the Wall. The Campaign calls for: (1) the immediate cessation of the building of the Wall, (2) the dismantling of all parts of the Wall and its related zones already built, (3) the return of lands confiscated for the path of the Wall, and (4) the compensation of damages and lost income due to the destruction of land and property in addition to the restitution of land. This page offers the latest news posted on the StopTheWall.org website.</p>
