ICJ and the Fence

I'm not sure what to write about this since it was expected by pretty much everyone that the "International Court of Justice" would decide that Israel's security barrier was illegal. In making this decision, the Court violated its own rules on what cases it can decide, but of course that isn't important if there is a chance to rule against Israel. This is just another in a long line of examples of the UN's hypocrisy and malfeasance. Undoubtedly now that there is precedent on fences the Court will also decide the issue of the fence India is building, or the fence Saudi Arabia is building, but I'm not holding my breath waiting for those decisions. This is a perfect example of why the UN and its "Court" need to be disbanded. Democracies are more than able to protect the rights of their citizens themselves, without the diktats of an institution dominated by the agenda of tyrannies and terror supporters.

And, of course, there is the unfinished fence, which has already stemmed the flow of slaughterers into Israel. As for the fence's trajectory, Israel's Supreme Court has just ruled that it must be shifted to limit the damage to local Palestinians--whose needs sometimes outweigh considerations of defense. In the same week, then, the highest courts of our country and of Israel have limited what the executive may do in pursuit of security. How many other countries, having suffered what Israel and the United States have at the hands of terrorists, would have been so scrupulous?
