More History Before 1967

The collective, voted for a leadership. The collective provides cover and concealment to the terrorist and insurgents. That the collective intentionally and with full knowledge and support, elected a leadership that is known to organize, instigate, facilitate, participate in, finance, encourage and tolerate terrorist and insurgent activities and uses heavily populated areas for terrorist/insurgent installations and training, and for the preparation and organization of terrorist and insurgent acts intended to be committed against the States of Israel and their citizens.

Collectively, the Palestinian population gave de facto approval and endorsement to Hamas to pursue the agenda in the Covenant.

This makes them active in aiding and abetting, or accessory to the offenses; an enemy population that has adopted and furthered the Hamas Covenant.

Mr R- Have you ever served on a committee? If so, I'd bet you'd agree that it is awfully difficult to get even a dozen people to agree on something. Take a population of several million, and a spectrum of opinion is virtually guaranteed, statistically speaking. It is absurd to just guess that millions are in agreement with a certain policy. Even scientific polls can be off by quite a bit.

Further, the majority of Palestinians, on the west bank, are under the PA, which has in fact offered a viable peace plan to Israel, and its stated policy is reconciliation and negociation. Indeed, they have offered large concessions to Israel.

In the case of Gaza, yes there was a vote for Hamas, but under what conditions? Gaza is an open air prison, cut off from the world by Israel, with supplies uncertain, under constant military threat, if not actual attack. Do you think that might generate some militant feelings? Americans have in the past endorsed some pretty radical measures, such as the imperial adventure in Iraq for example, or the suspention of certain civil rights after 9/11, despite a generally comfortable existence. If under constant stress of hunger and attack, how radical would Americans become, do you think?

This is a rationale you want to be careful with, because following this logic Americans, participating in a true democracy, would become targets around the world, from 17 year old backbackers to vacationing grandmothers, due to the foreign policy of the US.

Concerning the bold, are you implying that if Israel were to lift the naval and air blockade, that those 'militant' feelings' you speak of would just disappear ??

My next question: Why do you think the blockades are there to begin with ?

And finally, can you please elaborate on your statement concerning Gaza being cut off from the world?

Thanks in advance

(COMMENT)

First, no one is saying that the Arab/Palestinian could not or cannot declare independence (exercise their right to self-determination). If anything, it has been the Arab Palestinian themselves that have shot themselves in the foot.

The "Occupation" is a protective measure against the regional threat the Hostile Arab/Palestinian poses to the sovereignty of a member state of the United Nations (Israel).

An argument can be made that the Palestinian is, collectively, an international criminal enterprise that continues to adopt such measures to further the incitement of its population to commit acts of terrorist act or acts that obstruct the cause of regional peace. It is a collective criminal enterprise that is organizing, instigating, facilitating, participating in, financing, encouraging or tolerating terrorist activities and to take appropriate practical measures to ensure that our respective territories are not used for terrorist installations or training camps, or for the preparation or organization of terrorist acts intended to be committed against other States or their citizens.

These aforementioned actions are documented before the institution of "occupation" was establish as a means to contain and quarantine the nature of the criminal enterprise which is Palestinian.

If this was a short-term confrontation, even one lasting a decade or two, I might agree. But this has been going on for more than half a century.

(COMMENT)

The Palestinians are NOT under the constant threat of "attack." Although it is fair to say that they are under the threat of retaliatory strikes. Big! difference. (Don't shoot at them, and they won't shoot at you.)

At to the matter of consensus and duration: The Palestinians have had over a half century to reach some sort of consensus as to whether to pursue peace, or continue the struggle against Israel. I think it is reasonable to assume, unless the general population is moronic in nature, that after 60 years, the committee would have come to a conclusion. I reject the notion that they are mentally incapable of reaching a decision. I think they have. I think they have chosen to be a criminal conspiracy using any international legal hoop to justify continued armed aggression and propaganda to overturn the outcome which allowed the State of Israel to form.

If the Hostile Arab/Palestinian wants the "occupation" to end, and pursue a path towards peace, they need only demonstrate it by word and deed.

They haven't done that, and I do not think it is because it is a very new question and they haven't had time to form a consensus. No, its because they actually don't want to enter into peace arrangements with the State of Israel.

  • Recalling also the duty of States under the Charter to settle their international disputes by peaceful means in order not to endanger international peace, security and justice,
  • Reaffirming the duty of States not to use armed force to deprive peoples of their right to self-determination, freedom and independence, or to disrupt territorial Integrity,
  • Deciding No consideration of whatever nature, whether political, economic, military or otherwise, may serve as a justification for aggression.

Insurgents who purposely target civilians instead of soldiers/military cannot claim self defense. What Rocco said is completely correct and you know it, but you are too scared to admit it.

I know that the Palestinian believes they have some right to use armed force. This is something that Palestinians have in common with other insurgent groups. But there really is no such right.

How much of this is relevant when fighting a foreign occupation,
(COMMENT)

Under domestic law, all these apply. None are based on some underlying International Law. If a Palestine kills anyone in Israel (or any territory Israel Occupies), for whatever reason, Israel domestic law on homicide is applicable.

Under International Law, there is no limitation to duration of an occupation. There really is no law that prohibits an occupation that was pursuant to the hot pursuit of enemy forces, in which the overrun territory was occupied as a military necessity for rear area protection and the containment of hostile insurgent activity directed towards a sovereign state.

The legitimacy of either argument rest on which side is alleged to have been the party to first use armed force in contravention of the UN Charter.


(QUESTIONs)

  • Who used force first?
  • Has there ever been a Peace between the Palestinian and Israelis since hostilities opened?

(ANSWERs)

  • No
  • No

Most Respectfully,

I thought these were actions against your own country. How do they apply to an occupation?



Palestinian law states that it is legal to import and manufacture weapons. Where did you get this?

Explosives Handling

All countries have explosives. Do you have a point.

The legitimacy of either argument rest on which side is alleged to have been the party to first use armed force in contravention of the UN Charter.

Let's see. The Palestinians were at home minding their own business when the Zionists went to Palestine to take over their country. That would be the first aggressive move.

How many times does Rocco have to dismantle this 'logic' . And stop calling it a COUNTRY. You admitted yourself it was not. You can't even keep up with your own statements Tinmore.

Well! Maybe say almost a 100 years ago. Technically, the undefined territory (called today) Palestine, was under the Ottoman Empire (Sultan Mehmet IV Vahdettin), and the successor state did not renounce all formal rights of suzerainty, sovereignty, and or jurisdiction until 24 August 1920. Only the Hedjaz was recognized by treaty and the Allied Powers as a free and independent State inside the Levant.

But let's call it good enough for Palestinian work.

1948 ??? Where did you read that ??

Palestinian Declaration of Independence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Palestinian Declaration of Independence is a statement written by Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish and proclaimed by Yasser Arafat on 15 November 1988


I thought this quote from the link was the most intriguing:

Though recognised by over 100 countries, no de facto independent Palestinian state has come into existence in the Palestinian territories.

1947 was pretty late in the game. They should have known by then that they could not get the partition pig to fly
