You continue to ignore the political ramifications of a wall that weaves in and out of the West Bank.

No I'm not.

Any West Bank land that ends up on the wrong side of the wall will be seen as a land grab by the Palestinians.

Of course.

The Likud party, the more moderate conservatives, want the wall up. The radical right in Israel wants Israel to annex the West Bank to Israel and forget the wall.

The Likud or really only a large faction of it, used to want to annex the West Bank. But while many Israelis are for taking a hard line on Palestinians, most of them also don't want to have to control million of Palestinians forever...
