10. You're looking at it from one side of the conflict...
and from that side you are correct. But I think you're ignoring the other side. If two men are on opposite sides of a wall, one side of which is blue and the other green, they can argue all day about the color of the wall with both being somewhat correct.

Let me try to give the situation from the possible perspective on an Israeli.

Those hundreds of settlements and the wall are being built because the suicide bombings won't stop. They are being done to defy terrorists, and they are being done because the Sharon government is in power. The reason that the Sharon government is in power is because of the suicide bombings. The suicide bombers and terrorists are responsible for the harm of the wall and the settlements. If not for them, this conflict would be over.

You see, loudnclear, like most things in this world this isn't one sided.
