Title: the legality of Israeli settlements
Post by freediver on Jun 3rd, 2012 at 10:17am
http://maurice-ostroff.tripod.com/id351.html


Quote:
This article is intended neither as an argument for, nor against, Israel retaining some or all of the West bank settlements . Rather it urges that any discussion of the subject be based on the facts. Though some authorities maintain that its presence on the West Bank is legal, Israel may nevertheless decide  to relinquish legal claims in an agreed territorial compromise in the interests of peace.



Quote:
Although Jerusalem and the West Bank, (Judea and Samaria), were illegally occupied by Jordan in 1948 they remained in effect part of the Jewish National Home that had been created at San Remo. In the 1967 6-Day War Israel, in effect, recovered territory that legally belonged to it.

The late Prof. Julius Stone reinforces the claim that the areas are not occupied: He wrote, “ Israel‘s presence in all these areas pending negotiation of new borders is entirely lawful, since Israel entered them lawfully in self-defence.  International law forbids acquisition by unlawful force, but not where, as in the case of Israel’s self-defence in 1967, the entry on the territory was lawful. It does  not so forbid it, in particular, when the force is used to stop an aggressor, for the effect of such prohibition would be to guarantee to all potential aggressors that,  even if their aggression failed, all territory lost in the attempt would be  automatically returned to them. Such a rule would be absurd to the point of lunacy. There is no such rule"….



Quote:
Resolution 242 (http://www.2nd-thoughts.org/id127.html ). Since 242 is a security council decision it is legally binding unlike resolutions of the GA that are mere recommendations. Obviously the most reliable sources from whom to seek clarification are the persons who played key roles in drafting the resolution, including Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, Eugene Rostow. In an article in The New Republic, "Resolved: are the settlements legal? Israeli West Bank policies," (Oct. 21, 1991) Rostow wrote that it was explicitly agreed that Israel was not to be forced back to the 'fragile and vulnerable' Armistice Demarcation Lines, but to secure and recognized boundaries.  For this reason, the word “the” was deliberately omitted in the call for “Withdrawal of Israeli armed forces from territories occupied in the recent conflict” not from all the territories.






Quote:
    Judge Schwebel, a former President of the ICJ, who pronounced “As between Israel, acting defensively in 1948 and 1967, on the one hand, and her Arab neighbors, acting aggressively, in 1948 and 1967, on the other, Israel has the better title in the territory of what was Palestine, including the whole of Jerusalem.” (See Appendix A and http://www.2nd-thoughts.org/id248.html )



    Professor Julius Stone, one of the twentieth century's leading authorities on the Law of Nations. See http://www.2nd-thoughts.org/id160.html



    Eugene W. Rostow, US Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs between 1966 and 1969 who played a leading role in producing the famous Resolution 242.
    See http://www.2nd-thoughts.org/id45.html



    Jacques Gauthier, a non-Jewish Canadian lawyer who spent 20 years researching the legal status of Jerusalem leading to the conclusion on purely legal grounds, ignoring religious claims that Jerusalem belongs to the Jews, by international law. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28qwcVPNy3E
    and http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/125049#.TkAg4mGuySo



    William M. Brinton, who appealed against a US district court's withholding of State Department documents concerning US policy on issues involving Israel and the West Bank, the Golan Heights, and the Gaza Strip. He showed that none of these areas fall within the definition of "occupied territories” and that any claim that the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, or both, is a Palestinian homeland to which the Palestinians have a 'legitimate right' lacks substance and does not survive legal analysis. According to Mr. Brinton no state, other than Israel, can show a better title to the West Bank.





    Sir Elihu Lauterpacht CBE QC., the British specialist in international law, who concludes inter alia that sovereignty over Jerusalem already vested in Israel when the 1947 partition proposals were rejected and aborted by Arab armed aggression.



·         Simon H. Rifkind,  Judge of the United States District Court, New York who wrote an in depth analysis “The basic equities of the Palestine problem” (Ayer Publishing, 1977) that was signed by Jerome N. Frank, Judge of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals Second Circuit; Stanley H. Fuld, Judge of the Court of Appeals of the State of New York; Abrahan  Tulin, member of the New York Bar; Milton Handler, Professor of law, Columbia University; Murray L. Gurfein, member of the New York Bar; Abe Fortas, former Undersecretary of Interior of the United States and Lawrence R. Eno, member of the New York Bar. They jointly stated that justice and equity are on the side of the Jews in this document that they described as set out in the form of a lawyer’s brief.



Quote:
War crimes. Ironically, Ms. Ashrawi’s reference to war crimes under the Rome Statute is particularly appropriate not to Israel, but to Hamas who are guilty of the following war crimes as defined by Article 8 of the statute

    Wilful killing;
    Torture or inhuman treatment and willfully depriving a prisoner of war or other protected person of the rights of fair and regular trial as in the deprivation of POW rights to Gilad Shalit
    Taking of hostages.
    Intentionally directing attacks against the civilian population as such or against individual civilians not taking direct part in hostilities;
    Intentionally directing attacks against civilian objects, that is, objects which are not military objectives
    Intentionally launching an attack in the knowledge that such attack will cause incidental loss of life or injury to civilians or damage to civilian objects or widespread, long-term and severe damage to the natural environment which would be clearly excessive in relation to the concrete and direct overall military advantage anticipated
    Attacking or bombarding, by whatever means, towns, villages, dwellings or buildings which are undefended and which are not military objectives or persons
    Declaring that no quarter will be given
    Utilizing the presence of a civilian or other protected person to render certain points, areas or military forces immune from military operations
    Conscripting or enlisting children under the age of fifteen years into the national armed forces or using them to participate actively in hostilities
    The passing of sentences and the carrying out of executions without previous judgment pronounced by a regularly constituted court, affording all judicial guarantees which are generally recognized as indispensable.

I am a moderate on the issue.

I believe current settlements are legal and must stay.
New settlements  will be illegal and should not be build.

Somehow I doubt that is what is meant by 'empty' in this context. Do you really think Avram is saying they kicked the Palestinians out of their homes and built other homes in the backyards?

Think about it.

Did it belong to Jordan who had it when they attacked Israel?

Who cares. It bears no relation to the world now. Even the UN has said Israel is wrong to be trying to settle on that land. Remember israel used to try to settle gaza too. Greedy terrorist bastards i guess. Where are the palestinians expected to go? Israel is trying to occupy land that was never part of israel according to wiki.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_territories

Why do the jews not care about millions of palestinians? No compassion or empathy. Just lies and threats and accusations. You say its about religion and obviously it is. Both your silly books say to kill the other. What I dont understand is why the world is letting the jews get away with this. Every time anyone tries to say something you vcry "holocaust!" etc)

It is not just any land.
Israel is the Jewish hone land. It is given by God himself to the Jews.
There are many Jews in New York we could have this.

But no it is Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Haifa. Where Jews belong.

We should all be able to claim land we think was our 2000 yrs ago?
That might unsettle all of the worlds population just a tad and we should also note the majority of the Jews are European
and of European descent so its obvious their ancestors never came from the region they are claiming.
Its like a black African tribe saying Japan is rightfull theirs

How hard did they try? As hard as all the neighbouring countries, including the palestinians, tried to completely destroy Israel?

Where do you think the Israelis should go if that happens? Do you agree with the Muslims here that they should be sent back to Europe or forced to seek asylum?

If Israel actually took all of Gaza, they would have to deal with palestinian citizens, which is why they don't.

The Palestinians are still lobbing rockets because according to Muslims (eg Abu and Falah) the war never ended and a glorious victory is just around the corner for Islam, so it would be silly for Muslims to attempt to end it now and admit defeat. And of course, every time the Israelis try to get rid of the militants (the Palestinian authorities can't seem to bring themselves to) the Muslims make Israel out to be the aggressor and many uninformed naive people fall for it.

As I said before I havent talked to abu and falah. I will prolly get around to it eventually but I havent yet. Neither of them has answered questions I have asked them anyway so I dont bother with the islam area ATM. Maybe later.

when was the last rocket and why was it lobbed? Dont tell me BS about "because they are muslims" either. Not every palestinian is a muslim yet all of them are oppressed by israel.

Well you obviously need to look up bias since you dont know the meaning obviously. Looks like abu and falah can see whats going on hey? You keep bringing them up because they are muslim - you do know they dont speak for all muslims dont you? Sounds like they are making some sense if they agree with me though. I have lived in muslim countries and most muslims just go about their lives like any other religion ppl peacefully. The fanatics are fanatical just like hindus and xtians and even buddhists.

Why would the Jews run out all the Christians but leave the Muslims behind?

Are all the rocket lobbers local Muslims? I expect there would be plenty of Jihadis from far and wide who want a chance to kill Jews. All Muslims of course.

They are calling for Israel to stop retaliating until the Palestinians wipe them out. Here you go Spot, some of Falah's views on what a peace treaty means. Note that by stolen land he means all of Israel.

You mean surrender. Muslims don't surrender. Do you consider surrender a praiseworthy act? Why don't you go and live in France you surrender-monkey?

It is better than refusing to acknowledge you lost a war.

Falah, what is the difference between refusing to surrender when you have lost so miserably, and not wanting the bloodshed to continue? Do you actually think the Palestinians are on the verge of some kind of victory?


It is one thing to sign a peace treaty, another thing to surrender.

Here Falah explains that even though Muhammed himself reneged on every single peace treaty he made with Jews and forced them out of their homes as collective punishment for what was obviously a crime rather than an act of war, it was 'always the jews' fault'.

If we are going to quote from ancient fictional books that were only ever meant as guides such as the Bible or Koran we're never going to get anywhere..common sense and truth should come first.

No. He seems to have adopted this genocidal stance merely by having the same religion as them.

More lies Freeliar? Freeliar seems to lie in every post. We are calling on the Zionist Jews to return all the land that they have stolen.

The Israeli have rejected every peace treaty offered offered by the palestinians. The Israelis want the palestinians to give up everything. Who would accept that?

You are a liar Freeliar, it was the jews that broke every peace treaty.

Another lie. 99% of the Muslims living in the Islamic state were not expelled.

A couple of tribes that broke peace treaties, and attacked the Islamic state were ordered to leave the Islamic state. Some of the tribes people asked for permission to stay and were thus granted permission.

This expulsion only applied to the small number of Jews who had lived as a state within a state until they had broken the treaty. Their right to live as a state within a state was revoked because of their violations of the treaty.

99% of the Jews were not expelled from the Islamic state. This is either because they asked for permission to stay with the Islamic state without their 'state within a state' status or because they were from the areas where the 'state with a state' status was not granted in the first place.

Why did not all the expelled Jews ask for permission to stay in the Islamic state? Because their arrogance stopped them from submitting to the rule of Muslims.

Jews are welcome to live in an Islamic state as long and they return stolen land and pay compensation for their crimes.

Just like Hitler wished he had only invaded Czechoslavakia and not Poland and Russia.

Israel is building settlements again. No chance for peace they wont even talk. They want to build 800 more jewish houses.

Why does nobody want to comment on these new settlements? Perhaps because they are illegal and wrong and cant be justified.
