Israel defies Western appeals over 'closed military area' on Arab land
Article Abstract:
The Israeli army is making a large area of Arab land on the West Bank into a 'closed military area,' contravening international law and going against pressure from Western nations not to do so. European countries feel that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is seeking to damage US plans to bring Arab and Islamic countries into a coalition against those responsible for the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon.
