Which side is transferring portions of its civilian population into territory it occupies?
"The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies."
Fourth Geneva Convention - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Georgie It is not clear to me exactly what the law means----
I have never heard of ANYONE being "DEPORTED" --to
Gaza or the West Bank---- as to "transfer"---that sounds
like an active process as in THE COPS SHOW UP---order people
into trucks and SHIP them over the border. ---it seems to me
that any Israeli citizen living in the west bank ----went there
by his own volition. When the USA occupied West Germany--
we had WHOLE military families living there and non military
families who were ancillary workers------that was not even by
THEIR OWN VOLITION---they got orders (at least the active
duty people did----and the families went along)
About 4000 thousand Jews lived on the West Bank in 1970.
Close to 400,000 thousand do so today, all in violation of international law.
so? if you were honest you would make note of the fact that
prior to 1948----lots of jews lived in what is today
the 'west bank'-----and the jewish population of Jerusalem
included families that had been there for thousands of
years until a siege including murder, rape and starvation
destroyed that population---the tiny remnant saved
in 1948 ----and religious shrines destroyed by your kith
and kin.
no border was recognized---only an ARMISTICE line---
which was breached by your kith and kin in 1967
