News reports in Sanaa said that Yemen notified Saudi Arabia its objection to build a separation wall along its borders in a way violates the border demarcation agreement between the two countries.

The rejection came after the Saudi authorities started to build the wall in an area on which Yemen says that it is considered by the border demarcation agreement as an empty zone.

The two Yemenis and Saudis border committees in charge of implementing their bilateral border treaty had met more than one time in Sanaa and Riyadh in order to draw the final arrangements, on laying border markers and establishing land border crossings.

The two committees witnessed several differences on defining the crossing, their number and where it will be established and that was postponed to later meetings.

2. Your rule

is based on a value-judgment and propaganda. It is not being used for security as Israel's wall is, but simply to make a demarcation. Whether they intend to take land or simply force the issue, is unclear from this report.

3. No comparison. Israel's is to protect their citizens.

SA is to according to Yemen grab land.

6. But ...

You treat them both equal. That is wrong. Again, Israel's is to protect her citizens from terrorists. Saudi Arabia's is to grab land. There has to be a distinction. I'm sorry you can't see it.

8. Israel is using it to grab land also

While that may not be the main intent it's happening,and wrong,nonetheless.
