Evidence?
You're asking a holocaust denier for evidence for anything?
Here's a more useful activity.
Evidence?
I'm very comfortable with whatever conclusions people draw when comparing you and I.
Good that you gave up the Klinghoffer correlation.As you know from the Geneva convention killing anyone in the occupied territories without trial and the protections of law is murder. Israel murdered the Yassin. It was Israel that aided him personally in establishing Hamas.
Then you can quote it to specifically state what you have been claiming it states at any time now.I have only the 4th Geneva Convention on my side. Against you is your apparent inability to read it.
Yes, but that's a bit like being comfortable of being judged thinner than the the fat lady in the circus, or being certain people will reach the conclusion you're better looking than the elephant man.
Matt- the Israeli occupation of the West Bank is legal. It is legal because Jordan gave up ALL responsibility and rights to the land in 1987. They gave it to the PLO.
Now its up to the PLO/PA and Israel to negotiate the final status of the West Bank.
Never said the police was a threat to Israel. Its the terrorist elements within the WB, be it Islamic Jihad, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, etc. who have attacked Israelis in Israel proper and in these settlement blocs.
But somehow you interpreted this to mean that I was referring to a threat of traffic police? Nice one.
Once there's a non-belligerency agreement signed and terrorist organizations are quelled in the WB by the PA and the IDF, then there would be no need for Israel to reside, apart from the settlement blocs with the land swaps, in the West bank.
Capiche? Finally?
Good that you gave up the Klinghoffer correlation.
Good that you gave up pretending that Yassin was a helpless guy in a wheelchair who didn't establish Hamas in 1987 that murdered Israeli civilians in their terrorist operations.
Now all we need to get past is how the leader of a terrorist organization who posed a direct threat to Israelis deserves the rights of a 'lawful combatant' under GC or any statute/law and is not a 'lawful target' (as you would say for Israeli civilians in the WB) for the IDF.
The only pretense for a lawful is for a military purpose. There was only a claim to a military purpose when there was a state of war with Jordan. When the peace treaty was signed ALL basis for a lawful occupation went away.
We're making progress. Jordan signed an agreement of non-belligerency, as did Egypt. The PA has not.
.
um...except for the FACT that Jordan disavowed any rights or responsibilities for the West Bank, and gave them all to the PLO.
what does that mean? that means that Israel is allowed to and obligated to occupy and oversee the West Bank until a peace treaty is signed with the PLO.
its called international law. read about it.
Yeah, land for peace - not peace for land.
Yeah, land for peace - not peace for land.
And supposedly the issue of the Sinai is interchangeable with the land disputes in the WB. Another weak correlation.Yeah, land for peace - not peace for land.
What section? You've quoted nothing.I quoted the section of the 4th Geneva Convention which makes his death an act of murder by Israel. Have you found an exception to that convention?
What section? You've quoted nothing.
Targetted killing of an active and known terrorist doesn't count as a protected civilian, quite the contrary.
So you found the section yet? As in terming Yassin as a protected person or anything for that matter.All executions without a trial and the full protections of law are considered murder. There are no exceptions in the treaty. If you disagree, cite the exception.
RTFC!
Read The Fine Convention.
So you found the section yet? As in terming Yassin as a protected person or anything for that matter.
So you found the quote yet Matt?
And pfft, rabbis teach in the IDF? News to me.
Get back when you can somehow manage to get Yassin classified under the, yet to be sourced, GC of a protected person.
So Yassin wasn't the leader of Hamas and their terrorist wing now? Didn't order attacks on Israelis?Paraplegics are not engaged in combat.
If religious folks who advocate violence there are several dozen rabbis in Israel who are equally open to justifiable murder.
