Palestinians To Push UN Security Council on Wall

HeadlineJul 23, 2004

Palestinian diplomats have announced they plan to press the United Nations Security Council to force Israel to tear down the 450-mile wall it is constructing in the West Bank. This comes just days after the UN General Assembly voted overwhelmingly against Israel. The vote was 150 to 6. The only countries voting with Israel were the U.S., Australia and tiny Pacific island states of Micronesia, Palau and the Marshall Islands.
