The Israeli Regime of Nut&Yahoo and his fascist Right Wing Gang is again Stealing Land from unarmed oppressed Palestinian civilians against all norms of war in todays world...The Fascists who really run the Right Wing Gang came to Israel from Mother Russia which too steals land with impunity! Its always like this with Fascists, I'm just ashamed that my American taxes have supported a state that has attacked all its neighbors in pursuit of ME military dominance...Iran with hidden nukes, Saudi Arabia on the Jihadist hit list defending its waning influence as fires are spreading all over as Populism via Islam is overthrowing Western influenced governments...
When the dust clears Israel will be in danger because above all she has wanted an East/West war; in the next generation she will get her wish if she doesn't accept a two state solution and give back what she stole beyond the Green-Line in nineteen sixty seven Land- Grab!
Israel confiscates nearly 1 000 acres of Palestinian land in the West Bank Al Jazeera America
Israel on Sunday confiscated nearly 1,000 acres of privately owned Palestinian land near an Israeli settlement south of Bethlehem in the West Bank ā a move described by Israeli rights group Peace Now as āunprecedented in its scope since the 1980s."
Settlements built on Palestinian land occupied by Israel, including East Jerusalem, are deemed illegal by the United Nations. Israelās refusal to halt their construction and expansion has at times arrested the peace process and increased resentment and distrust among Palestinians.
In a statement published on its website, Peace Now condemned the latest land confiscation and said it further damaged the chance of achieving a lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians based on a two-state solution.
The group also said the move ran contrary to the ānew diplomatic horizonā that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke of earlier this month, even as Israel and Hamas exchanged blows in a deadly battle that devastated the Gaza Strip.
āPeace Now views this declaration as proof that Prime Minister Netanyahu does not aspire for a new āDiplomatic Horizonā but rather, he continues to put obstacles to the two state vision and promote a one state solution,ā the group said.
Later on Sunday, a U.S. State Department official characterized the land confiscation as "counterproductiveā and urged Israel to āreverseā its decision.
British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond echoed that call on Monday, saying the move had the potential to reignite violence between the two parties.
"This is a particularly ill-judged decision that comes at a time when the priority must be to build on the cease-fire in Gaza. It will do serious damage to Israel's standing in the international community," Hammond said.
It would be stealing the land if they had not won the war in 1967.
It is their land now, to do what they want with it.

Both sides went to war, neither side was innocent of their actions, if the other side would have won, it would be their land.
Who started that war?
In April 1967 Israel's army and air force attacked Syria, in response to Syrian shooting towards an Israeli tractor ploughing in the DMZ.
A process of unwanted escalation, which all sides wanted to prevent, but for which all were ultimately responsible, led to the war.

If the other side had won, they could have claimed they were defending themselves from an Israeli attack (Israel started the war), but I suspect they would have been compelled by the International community to return the land secured by force. That's the law.
The prohibition on territorial conquest is a cornerstone of the international legal order. The United Nations Charter bans the use or threat of force as a tool of international relations, even when used to rectify prior injustices. The sole exception is self-defense. Thus territory taken by force has the status of ill-gotten gains, and cannot be kept by the victor. An important side note is that third-party states cannot recognize the sovereignty of the conqueror (i.e. the sovereignty of Israel over the West bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem) and must treat the acquisition as illegal.

The group also said the move ran contrary to the ānew diplomatic horizonā that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke of earlier this month, even as Israel and Hamas exchanged blows in a deadly battle that devastated the Gaza Strip.
āPeace Now views this declaration as proof that Prime Minister Netanyahu does not aspire for a new āDiplomatic Horizonā but rather, he continues to put obstacles to the two state vision and promote a one state solution,ā the group said.
Later on Sunday, a U.S. State Department official characterized the land confiscation as "counterproductiveā and urged Israel to āreverseā its decision.
British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond echoed that call on Monday, saying the move had the potential to reignite violence between the two parties.
"This is a particularly ill-judged decision that comes at a time when the priority must be to build on the cease-fire in Gaza. It will do serious damage to Israel's standing in the international community," Hammond said.
It would be stealing the land if they had not won the war in 1967.
It is their land now, to do what they want with it.
Not according to International Law. That's why the UN considers the areas "Occupied Territories". To the UN,
territory taken by force has the status of ill-gotten gains, and cannot be kept by the
victor.
They did not take it by force, they won the 6 days war and it's theirs.
Unlike a treaty agreement, customary international law is usually not written and it is not enforceable.
They don't have to obey the U.N. same as us and any other countries. They and we still have our own freedom and the U.N. is not the dictator at least not yet.
"They did not take it by force, they won the 6 days war and it's theirs."
You are trying to be funny, I guess. If not, reread what you wrote. LOL
So when the arab muslims invaded and took the land by force it was acceptable was it. Yet when Israel occupied the land as a defensive measure it suddenly became a breach of international law. They did not take it by force they drove back the arab muslims who attacked them and set up defensive positions.
Was Jerusalem included as part of the Jewish partition?

The Jews came from Europe, how could the Jews be defending anything when they, by definition, had taken land ina place on another continent? I don't get your logic.
So it's ok for a government to confiscate privately owned land?
The U.S. Government does it all the time. And yes, it is okay.
Why? And why is it only Palestinian land that ends up confiscated?
Who says it is Palestinian land, and can they produce the land deeds to prove it. In 1948/1949 the Jews in the west bank were forcibly evicted with just the clothes on their backs by the arab muslims. Their land was confiscated and now they are returning to re-claim it back, or don't you think that the Jews should have the right to own land in the west bank again ?
Old news from August 2014.So it's ok for a government to confiscate privately owned land?

Both sides went to war, neither side was innocent of their actions, if the other side would have won, it would be their land.
Who started that war?
In April 1967 Israel's army and air force attacked Syria, in response to Syrian shooting towards an Israeli tractor ploughing in the DMZ.
A process of unwanted escalation, which all sides wanted to prevent, but for which all were ultimately responsible, led to the war.
If the other side had won, they could have claimed they were defending themselves from an Israeli attack (Israel started the war), but I suspect they would have been compelled by the International community to return the land secured by force. That's the law.
The prohibition on territorial conquest is a cornerstone of the international legal order. The United Nations Charter bans the use or threat of force as a tool of international relations, even when used to rectify prior injustices. The sole exception is self-defense. Thus territory taken by force has the status of ill-gotten gains, and cannot be kept by the victor. An important side note is that third-party states cannot recognize the sovereignty of the conqueror (i.e. the sovereignty of Israel over the West bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem) and must treat the acquisition as illegal.
You know they would not have done that, any more so than Israel hasn't done it.
They would have been made to return conquered territory and pronto. They did not have the U.S. to defend them. Israel is not being sanctioned or otherwise forced to return stolen land because the U.S. prevents any action against Israel.. The Arab states would not have had that kind of support.
