UN calls on Israel to dismantle the apartheid wall

Occupied Palestinian Territories: UN calls on Israel to dismantle wall:

Shouldn't this call be directly made by the UN Secretary General? I guess he's too busy with his so called quiet diplomacy. Too damn quiet!

"United Nations, New York, 8 July 2009 - Noon breifing by the Office of the Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Tomorrow (9 July) marks the fifth anniversary of the International Court of Justices Advisory Opinion, which found that Israels construction of the Wall within the Occupied Palestinian Territory violated its obligations under international law.

But to this day, according to the West Bank branch of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, the situation has not improved.

The Office is now calling on the Israeli Government to comply with the Advisory Opinion, dismantle the Wall within the Occupied Palestinian Territory, and make reparation for all damage suffered by people affected by the Walls construction."
