World court condemns Israeli barrier and calls for tear down
The International Court of Justice urged Israel to dismantle the 425 mile West Bank barrier, compensate Palestinians harmed, and return seized property. The advisory opinion also backed a negotiated peace and Palestinian state, with 14 of 15 judges in favor. Only the U S judge dissented. The ruling is non binding but seeks UN action to press compliance. Palestinians and the Arab League welcomed the decision as a victory for international law.

He released a 511 page panel report and noted term limits could be lifted, though party control and senate leadership would decide. Rockefeller pushes for quick next phase, while Roberts plans hearings with 24 intelligence experts to propose reforms.

Republicans and Democrats clashed over White House influence, with Kerry stating the buck stops at the White House. Bush defended actions and the war, noting stockpiles were not found but warning Saddam could have made them.
