A few questions so I will know who I'm dealing with...

Israel was created by foreigners.

lex-luthor-wrong1.jpg

Israel is the project of the foreign World Zionist Organization. Israel was declared by the foreign Jewish Agency that was created in Zurich by the foreign World Zionist Organization.

Of the 37 people who signed Israel's declation of independence, only one was born in Palestine and he was the son of immigrants. They were all foreigners.

Weather that's true or not, it makes no difference whatsoever. Israel was created in 1948 and still exists today, and will continue to exist.
You can, as you always say, grasp at straws, but it changes nada !

In the end, Tinmore, what is all this railing against history going to accomplish in the scheme of things? What do you predict the end results will be?
 
Tinny and his pals are living in the land of Coulda-Shoulda-Woulda instead of the Reality that the rest of us are enjoying.

What history am I railing against?
 

Well...you see... our whole universe was in a hot dense state, then nearly fourteen billion years ago, expansion started...wait! The Earth began to cool, the autotrophs began to drool, Neanderthals developed tools, we built a wall, we built the pyramids. Math, science, history... unraveling the mystery, that all started with the Big Bang.
 
P F Tinmore, toastman, HistoryBefore67, et al,

First, let me say, that "zionism" is not a derogatory connotation.

Second, we've gone over this several times before in other threads.

Hmmmm....

At no time have the Jews relinquished their right to sovereignty and that right cannot be taken by military force.
Now we're getting somewhere.
The right to sovereignty belongs to the natives.
Israel was created by foreigners.
I'm pretty sure Rocco threw that statement in the garbage for you . Where did you ever see the word foreigners ?

(COMMENT)

POINT #1: There is no reference to the limitation of the right to "self-determination" with respect to "foreigners" (xenophobia being a concept near universally opposed). In fact, the term "foreigners" is not used in the Covenant or the Charter. (Incidentally, the right to self-determination was not expressed in the Covenant.) The UN does speak, as you have pointed out, about the "non-interference" (LINK: A/50/635/Add.2 27 February, 1996) However, as explained before, that terminology was with "respect for the principles of national sovereignty and non-interference in the internal affairs of States in their electoral processes;" having nothing to do with "foreigners." The territory in question, undefined during the Ottoman Rule, and artificially defined during the period of the British Mandate, was never sovereign unto itself; being subject either to the Ottoman Empire, or the Mandatory under Article 22 of the Covenant. It was never sovereign. The "interference" was actually the part the Arab League played in the manipulation of the Arab Higher Committee, when in the partition plan was not accepted by the Palestinian Arabs and Arab States on the ground that it violated the provisions of the UN Charter, which granted people the right to decide their own destiny. (Incidentally, the term "destiny" is not used once in the Charter.) The concept of respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, was based on the idea the United Nations would promote:
a. higher standards of living, full employment, and conditions of economic and social progress and development;

b. solutions of international economic, social, health, and related problems; and international cultural and educational co-operation; and

c. universal respect for, and observance of, human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion.​

The principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples is not defined beyond these observances. The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples was not adopted until 2007 (LINK: Resolution adopted by the General Assembly [without reference to a Main Committee (A/61/L.67 and Add.1)], which is not retroactively applicable to the actions taken more than a half century ago. But even if it was, it clearly does not give a specific advantage to "Indigenous people" over "Immigrants." They are equal.

United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples said:
Affirming that indigenous peoples are equal to all other peoples, while recognizing the right of all peoples to be different, to consider themselves different, and to be respected as such,

Bearing in mind that nothing in this Declaration may be used to deny any peoples their right to self-determination, exercised in conformity with international law.

The idea that there is some international law or consensus that extends the indigenous Palestinian greater rights and freedoms over the legitimate immigrant is clearly erroneous; both as a mental exercise and as humanitarian ideal.

POINT #2: The Jewish people in the former Mandate of Palestine were not foreigners in the sense that they spontaneously arrived or invaded the Mandate. They were invited by a succession of ruling Sultans during the Ottoman Rule (even escorted by the Sultan's fleet in the late 1400's) and then, encouraged to immigrate by His Royal Highness, Emir Faisal, for the Arab Kingdom of Hejaz; in cooperation with the World Zionist Organization. This invitation was extended by the Arab King having dominion (before the Mandate, in 1919) "carrying into effect the British Government's Declaration of the 2nd of November, 1917" (The Balfour Declaration). They were not uninvited invaders to Arab Lands with sinister motives. And again, four plus years later, the Mandate further encourage immigration.

POINT #3: The central theme, repeated over and over again that the World Zionist Organization (WZO) is foreign, and thereby implying some illegitimate to the process of accomplishing the goal of the Balfour Declaration of 1917, is simply erroneous. The WZO is sovereignty immaterial and non-specific (a global organization). Further more, it was the central point of contact for the Arab King (having dominion) to used as a channel to coordinate the implementation of the Balfour Declaration. However, the Jewish Agency was an instrumentality created by the Article 4 of the Mandate (LINK: Mandate for Palestine), and required by the Mandate to be accredited by the WZO. This development was, by name (Jewish Agency) was conceived in Article 4, of the San Remo Convention a full two years before the Mandate, and to assist in the compliance with Articles of the agreement between the HRH and the WZO. It was not some spontaneous organization that just sprung into existence as an externality.

POINT #4: The Palestinian, of today, inherits a legacy of flip-flops on its position. What they advocate today is not constant with the theme they historically they have held. The adoption of General Assembly Resolution 181 (II) was immediately followed by outbreaks of violence by the Hostile Arab Palestinian (HoAP) Population, after plan was rejected by the Palestinian Arabs and Arab States (the real external "interference"). Then, the HoAP later, after a number of irrational arguments claiming various violations of the Covanent and Charter, a few failed wars, and a couple ill fated insurrections, they adhere to international legitimacy and respect General Assembly Resolution 181 (II) (as stated in Letter dated 25 March 1999 from the Permanent Observer of Palestine to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General). Yet, later again, when Hamas becomes a significant influence and puppet of the Iranians, they flip-flop back to claiming the illegitimacy of the Resolution. The HoAP does not have any political consistency.

Most Respectfully,
R

Rocco...Iran did not create Hamas:

"With its takeover of Gaza after the 1967 war with Egypt, Israel hunted down secular Palestinian Liberation Organization factions but dropped the previous Egyptian rulers' harsh restrictions against Islamic activists.[8]

"In fact, Israel for many years tolerated and at times encouraged Islamic activists and groups as a counterweight to the secular nationalists of the PLO and its dominant faction, Fatah.[8][9]

"Among the activists benefited was Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Gaza, who had also formed the Islamist group Mujama al-Islamiya in 1973, a charity recognized by Israel in 1979. Israel allowed the organization to build mosques, clubs, schools, and a library in Gaza.[8][10]"

Have you noticed how US funding for al-Qa'ida in the 1980s and Israel's creation of Hamas serve the interests of those who get rich from war and debt today?

OK but what were the terms used by the League of Nations Covenant?

ARTICLE 22.

To those colonies and territories which as a consequence of the late war have ceased to be under the sovereignty of the States which formerly governed them and which are inhabited by peoples not yet able to stand by themselves under the strenuous conditions of the modern world, there should be applied the principle that the well-being and development of such peoples form a sacred trust of civilisation and that securities for the performance of this trust should be embodied in this Covenant.

The best method of giving practical effect to this principle is that the tutelage of such peoples should be entrusted to advanced nations who by reason of their resources, their experience or their geographical position can best undertake this responsibility, and who are willing to accept it, and that this tutelage should be exercised by them as Mandatories on behalf of the League.

The character of the mandate must differ according to the stage of the development of the people, the geographical situation of the territory, its economic conditions and other similar circumstances.

Certain communities formerly belonging to the Turkish Empire have reached a stage of development where their existence as independent nations can be provisionally recognized subject to the rendering of administrative advice and assistance by a Mandatory until such time as they are able to stand alone. The wishes of these communities must be a principal consideration in the selection of the Mandatory.

Other peoples, especially those of Central Africa, are at such a stage that the Mandatory must be responsible for the administration of the territory under conditions which will guarantee freedom of conscience and religion, subject only to the maintenance of public order and morals, the prohibition of abuses such as the slave trade, the arms traffic and the liquor traffic, and the prevention of the establishment of fortifications or military and naval bases and of military training of the natives for other than police purposes and the defence of territory, and will also secure equal opportunities for the trade and commerce of other Members of the League.

There are territories, such as South-West Africa and certain of the South Pacific Islands, which, owing to the sparseness of their population, or their small size, or their remoteness from the centres of civilisation, or their geographical contiguity to the territory of the Mandatory, and other circumstances, can be best administered under the laws of the Mandatory as integral portions of its territory, subject to the safeguards above mentioned in the interests of the indigenous population.

ARTICLE 23.

Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of international conventions existing or hereafter to be agreed upon, the Members of the League:

(a) will endeavour to secure and maintain fair and humane conditions of labour for men, women, and children, both in their own countries and in all countries to which their commercial and industrial relations extend, and for that purpose will establish and maintain the necessary international organisations;


(b) undertake to secure just treatment of the native inhabitants of territories under their control;

Everything I see references people who already live in their own country.

I don't see anyone mentioned who could possibly be considered foreigners.
 
"...Everything I see references people who already live in their own country. I don't see anyone mentioned who could possibly be considered foreigners."
The Jews of British Mandate Palestine were already Residents (Citizens) of the region labeled by the British as Palestine. They were immigrant-citizens, not foreigners, yes?

But they didn't "live in their own country", did they? They were subjects of the Ottoman Empire, and then British subjects.
 
Just ask Pinmore to define "foreigner", he can't do it. It's not a relevant term to the issues at stake.

Yeah, but I don't think it sank-in properly...
 
You'd have a better chance of teaching nuclear physics to a cocker spaniel.
Dear Colleague:

It was very cruel of you to tell such a joke and to make me snort a half-ounce of orange juice (no pulp) back out through my nostrils upon reading that.

I will thank you in-future to take the morning drinking habits of your colleagues into account in contemplating their safety in the context of scoring points through outrageously funny combacks.

Thank you in advance for your consideration in this important matter.

Sincerely,

Kondor
