We will condemn Israel for not allowing Jews to be sitting ducks in a homocide bombers' gallery.

Al-Kidwa called for a UN Security Council vote on Tuesday on a draft resolution seeking to bar Israel from building the fence on Palestinian land

The Palestians don't have a country so they don't have any land. This resolution violates Israel's sovereignty.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Let's see if I've got the international position straight. Israel shouldn't control Palestine, and should give it statehood. However, it shouldn't have a fence in the place where such a new Pali state's border would be. Further, this is more important than defending Israel's own populace against terrorism, because it cause hardships for Palestinians who might wish to shop and work in Israel. This is wrong because not all Palestinians are bombers. Preserving the rights of the Palestinians who aren't bombers is imperative, and therefore it is irrelevant that all Israelis suicide bombers are Palestinian (or their sympathizers).

There, I think I've got it now.

Security Council meets on (Israel's) security fence

We think that both sides should avoid actions to escalate the situation, and we have said we don't think that building this fence is consistent with the vision of a Palestinian state living side by side at peace with its neighbor Israel.

Sure, it’s the fence that’s caused all the trouble the last 50 years or so.

If Israel is allowed to continue construction, "this will mean the end of the two-state solution, and that will take us to either a more drastic and radical solution or perpetual conflict. It should be looked at that seriously," Palestinian UN envoy Nasser al-Kidwa said.

Okay, door number one : the "more drastic and radical solution."
