These are the words of the legal counsel to the Israel Foreign Ministry, in 1967: "civilian settlement in the administered territories contravenes the explicit provisions of the Fourth Geneva Convention." More importantly, Theodor Meron, the man who stated this, STILL believes this today: "still represents my best reading of international law." So, not only does the Israeli Supreme Court agree that the West Bank is under Israeli Occupation, and that its illegal for Israel to confiscate private land to build Jewish settlements, but Israel's own legal counselors advised them NOT to build settlements, cause they felt it was illegal. Its good to know there are wise and intelligent men in Israel, stating the truth.
Israel sees itself as being above international laws. Israel is immune to accountability over its violations of international law,So, it’s not too exaggerative to say that Israel is wielding an unwritten veto power that allows it to practice violence and aggression and be exempt from any kind of responsibility Israel’s violations of international law and its illegal conducts which run counter to the rules and conventions have long been recognized.by world countries . Whenever the international community reached a consensus to condemn Israel for its criminal actions, it was the United States that used its veto power and acted as a representative of Israel at the Security Council to protect the interests of Tel Aviv and prevent the world powers from incriminating it. Former Time Magazine Bureau Chief in Israel , Donald Neff has noted that the United States used its veto power on behalf of Israel 32 times and blocked the resolutions which either condemned Israel’s actions or called on it to adopt a certain measure . It sounds like Israel is itself a member of the Security Council with a veto power. What is clear is that as long as the United States doesn’t allow the world to stand firm against Israel’s criminal and illegal conducts, the international law will continue to be ridiculed and undercut ===
And it is American dollars in the form of $3+ billion dollar handouts every year that enables Israel to commit these crimes. Where is the objection and outrage from the crowd who always protests against taxation and welfarism??
