By Chaim Cohen

11. Graffiti paintings on the Israeli West Bank barrier by Banksy near Qalandia -
July 2005

16. Banksy’s Perspective
 Soon after completing his graffiti on the wall, Banksy
wrote on his website, “How illegal is it to vandalize a
wall if the wall itself has been deemed unlawful by the
International Court of Justice? The Israeli government
is building a wall surrounding the occupied Palestinian
territories. It stands three times the height of the Berlin
Wall and will eventually run for over 700 km—the
distance from London to Zurich. The International Court
of Justice last year ruled the wall and its associated
regime illegal. It essentially turns Palestine into the
world’s largest open-air prison.”
