Markers show the vote by members of the United Nations during their general assembly about Israel`s West Bank barrier, in New York, July 20, 2004. The U.N. General Assembly voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to demand that Israel obey a World Court ruling and tear down its West Bank barrier. The vote in the 191-nation assembly was 150-6, with 10 abstentions. All 25 European Union countries voted in support of the Palestinian-drafted measure. The United States, however, Israel`s closest ally, voted `no.` REUTERS/Chip East
