What legal justification does Israel have for keeping UN inspectors from the West Bank(for the 5th time)?
Israel keeps insisting the West Bank is not occupied. The inspectors are not allowed even in area "A" where the Palestinian Authority is supposedly in charge. I'm quite certain they're not claiming they're terrorists, so they can't claim security risk
I am asking this question for the fifth time.

You are trying to mislead. Israel does not keep any inspectors of the UN from Judea and Samaria; Israel just said it would not cooperate with the biased group of the UN Human Rights Council, where such champions of democracy as Libya, Nigeria and Saudi Arabia, with Syria until recently a Chairman, teach the world the respect to human rights.
Also, there is one thing you evidently do not understand. By the Oslo Accord which nobody has denounced or cancelled, Palestinian Authority is a part of Israel. It is not a sovereign State; it´s just a territory that was given a certain status, like Catalonia was given a special status in Spain. But , like Catalonia is a part of Spain and follows the Spanish laws , so the Palestinian Authority is a part of Israel and Israel has the absolute right to decide, who can enter the territory of the Palestinian Authority and who can not; it´s the foreign policy scope of prerogatives and here Israel has what is called in the International Law the absolute right.
To make the situation absolutely clear to you, so that you could understand better about “who is who” and what each side of the Oslo accords can do: Israel has the right to dissolve this Palestinian authority in wink.

You are not asking this question for the fifth time, this the first. Israel has refused to allow inspectors into the west Bank, claiming they have the right. Inspectors could use the Allenby Bridge, but would be turned down at the Palestinian side.
@YK Cherson, Oslo states no such thing. It never recognizes the west Bank as Israeli, it clearly states the divisions were temporary administratvie districts.
@matthew- so since the West Bank is Israelis sovereign soil. Israel must be an apartheid state since Palestinians have no say in Israeli government.

"What legal justification does Israel have for keeping UN inspectors from the West Bank(for the 5th time)?"
Simple. The answer is "sovereignty." Israel has not committed any war crimes, nor lost any wars, so no foreign body, (the UN, NATO, the EU, NONE of them or any other), nor any private organizations (such as Amnesty International, Campus Crusade for Christ, etc.) have ANY right to enter Israel without Israel's permission.
That's the only 'justification' Israel needs.
End of lesson.

Probably for the same reason Israel will not allow UN inspectors to visit any of their nuclear sites and yet Israel condemns Iran over its peacefull atomic program. Hypnotics.
