Israel Vows to Continue Building Barrier
A defiant Israel has vowed to continue construction of its West Bank barrier despite the overwhelming approval of a U.N. General Assembly resolution demanding that the structure be demolished as the world court ordered.
The 150-6 vote late Tuesday, with 10 abstentions, reflected the widespread international opposition to the 425-mile-long barrier.

The barrier in the long run probably won't save a lot of lives. It's just waving a red flag in front of a bull. IMO, the barrier exists as a way for Israel to further cement claims to occupied lands.
Israel should give up all occupied territories, the Palestinians should receive the same level of financial support Isreal received to turn a desert into an oasis, and the first side that screws around after this is done gets a bomb dropped on it.
