Despite the passage of 15 years since the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague (9 July 2004) on the separation wall and annexation imposed by the Israeli occupation authorities over the Occupied Palestinian Territory, the Court affirmed that the Wall is not a wall And called on Israel to stop building, demolish what has been built, and reparation for the damage caused to private citizens, public and private institutions and public administrations, including those living in and around East Jerusalem. The fatwa remained unresolved in the absence of the international will to commit The Occupying Power Zha and the international community not to take any concrete measures in this direction encouraged the occupation authorities to continue to violate international law and continues to build the wall

More than 150 Palestinian communities have land between the Wall and the Green Line, while 65 of the settlements built by Israel are in the West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem
In a different context, and in his habit of defying international law and international legitimacy, in falsifying the history of this country and inventing a history of invading settlers, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared at the celebration marking the 40th anniversary of the establishment of the so-called "Samaria Regional Council" To uproot any settlement in the "Land of Israel" has ended this nonsense and Israel under his leadership will not go back and will not repeat the mistakes of the past by referring to the Ariel Sharon´s so-called unilateral disengagement plan on the Palestinians and the dismantling of settlements in the Gaza Strip in 2005
Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to be riding a high wave of demagoguery based on the unlimited support of the US administration, and he explained to the settler leaders the principles that guide his policy regarding what he called "Judea and Samaria" to emphasize that this is our land and our homeland. Secondly, we will continue to develop and build them. Third, no settlement will be uprooted in any political plan, no settler will be uprooted. Fourth, the Israeli army and security forces will continue to control the whole area up to the Jordan River and fifth to work towards an international consensus on these principles, adding to the support of the US administration for Israel´s aggressive settlement policy , Look what we did in the Golan Heights, what we did in Jerusalem and the rest come "

The lands of Wadi Al-Homs include three districts: Wadi Al-Humus, Deir Al-Amoud and Al-Mentar. In spite of the urgent need for urban expansion, a number of Sur Baher residents resorted to building in their land where they owned the taboo and were not able to receive services from the Jerusalem Municipality, which refused to claim that they were land belonging to the PNA. .
