>>In a sharply worded advisory opinion — far harsher than Israel expected — the International Court of Justice said Israel should compensate Palestinians harmed by the structure and return property confiscated for its construction.

In addition to finding that the barrier violates international law, the court also called for a negotiated peace settlement that would see the establishment of a Palestinian state "as soon as possible."

The 15 international judges were unexpectedly united in backing the majority of the decisions by a vote of 14-1. Only the American judge dissented, in line with Washington's position that the court is not the appropriate venue for considering the security barrier.<<

US government has been proven an Israel's puppet but obviously UN is not. It seems US government's influence on UN decision about Israel and the Middle East issues is getting weaker and failing. The report also seems to indicate that the other nations are more willing to stand up to confront Israel's aggression nowadays.
