[VTJP] A WALL AGAINST THE WORLD

[James M Leas]

A WALL AGAINST THE WORLD   150 countries voted in the UN General Assembly in favor of accepting the decision of the International Court of Justice that the wall on Palestinian land violates international law.   5 countries voted with the Sharon government against the resolution, including Micronesia, the Marshall Islands and Palau.   10 countries abstained, including Tonga, Vanuatu, Papua, Nauru and the Solomon Islands, all of them remote Pacific Ocean islands.   So, exactly, began the world-wide boycott of racist South Africa.   It is a mistake to rely forever on the American veto. The opinion of the vast majority of the world�s nations has an accumulating importance.   Yet, after all: the decisive change must come from within us.         Gush Shalom, Help us with donations to P.O.Box 3322, Tel-Aviv 61033, Phone 972-3-5221732. www.gush-shalom.org Requests for information about current actions: [EMAIL PROTECTED]     Gush Shalom ad published in Ha'aretz,                                                             July 23,  2004 Yahoo!
