All The News Anti-Israel Posters Will Not Read Or Discuss 2

Over the past few years, MEMRI TV has released clips featuring the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, which in February 2021 was declared terrorist by Israel as a part of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).[1] In September 2021, Discover froze donations to the organization; earlier, in January 2021, Mastercard, Visa, and American Express removed the option to give money to Samidoun through them,[2] and two and a half years previously, in June 2019, PayPal, Donorbox, and Plaid had shut down Samidoun's accounts on the platforms.[3]

Samidoun was founded by members of the PFLP in 2012. Representatives of the organization are active in Europe and North America, led by Khaled Barakat, who is part of the leadership of the PFLP abroad. Barakat is involved with establishing militant cells and motivating terrorist activity. The formal goal of Samidoun is to help get Palestinian prisoners released from Israeli prisons, but the organization is a front of the PFLP abroad, playing a leading role in its anti-Israel activity, fundraising, and recruitment. The PFLP has been a U.S. Designated Foreign Terrorist Organization since 1997.[4]

The following are MEMRI TV clips of a protest held in September 2021 by the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network in Canada, and of statements by a representative of the organization at earlier rallies.

Shari’a Law Is Above Any International Treaty or Legislation.



No international treaty or local legislation is above shari'a law..png


Even the Arab Palestinian should be afraid of this kind of strict compliance with religious law. IF these radicals get in power, THEN the lifestyle similar to Iran or the Taliban or Daesh will not be far behind.

The question I cannot answer is: Do the Arab Palestinian really want that lifestyle?

All these women with advanced degrees and internet blogs are going to be silenced. They will go backwards in time. At first the Arab Palestinian Muttawa will whisper. But it will gradually begin to effect major changes.

The notion that Israel has been carrying out a decades-long crackdown on political activism in the Palestinian territories is a baseless, partisan allegation put forward by the very same organizations now blacklisted by Israel as terror organizations. There is simply no evidence to support the gross smear. It is not a fact, although AP’s Krauss states it as fact, without any attribution.

In order to establish Israel’s designation of the six Palestinian NGO’s “a major escalation” in the purported “decades-long crackdown on political activism,” Krauss must omit all information which, in fact, points to the terror activity of these groups.

And that’s exactly what he does. Instead of harnessing the power of facts, Krauss obscures the facts that don’t fit his fallacious frame.

Krauss wrote that the Defense Ministry “said the groups serve as a ‘central source’ of financing for the PFLP [Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine] and has received ‘large sums of money from European countries and international organizations,’ without elaborating.” (Emphasis added.)

Robust reporting doesn’t rely on spoon-feeding from a Defense Ministry press release. Indeed, there’s no shortage of open source material tying the relevant groups to PFLP. It was readily available for Krauss to find, if only he cared to do so.

Israel Declares War on Palestinian Human Rights Defenders​



This are not human rights defenders. One cannot choose to defend only one people and one cause on the planet when there are so many in much worse of a situation than the Arabs in Palestine, caused by their own leaders from Husseini in 1920 to Abbas in 2021.

Time to change and want peace with Israel, without wanting to destroy Israel and kill all Jews.

I am not an Attorney (my Doctorate is in Metaphysics), so I am not practicing law.

PREFACE: I consider this incitement to violence.
This is the Great Gordian Knot of the Modern Middle East.

Resistance to occupation is not incitement or violence.
So how do you incite others,
and how violent are you allowed to be?
(COMMENT)

IF
the Arab Palestinian want to call it a true "Occupation," THEN Article 68 of the Fourth Geneva Convention (GCIV) comes into play. Essentially, if the Arab Palestinians attempt to harm the Occupying Power - it is illegal under the GCIV and it sets out the Judicial limitations, the Penalties (including Capital Punishment).

◈ The Israelis may impose the death penalty on Arab Palestinians only in cases where the person is guilty of espionage, of serious acts of sabotage against the military installations of the Occupying Power or of intentional offences which have caused the death of one or more persons, provided that such offences were punishable by death under the law of the occupied territory in force before the occupation began.
◈ IF the Arab Palestinian commit an offence which is solely intended to harm the Occupying Power, but which does not constitute an attempt on the life or limb of members of the occupying forces or administration, nor a grave collective danger, nor seriously damage the property of the occupying forces or administration or the installations used by them, THEN the Arab Palestinian shall be liable to internment or simple imprisonment, provided the duration of such internment or imprisonment is proportionate to the offence committed.

IF the Arab Palestinian say it is not an Occupation, THEN the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (CCPR) kicks in → which states:

Article 20
1. Any propaganda for war shall be prohibited by law.​
2. Any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence shall be prohibited by law.​


Relative to this question, it is related to the associate questions:

◈ Is the Israeli-Palestinian Confrontation an International Armed Conflict (IAC), opposing two or more States?​
..........................................................OR
◈ Is the Israeli-Palestinian Confrontation Non-International Armed Conflict (NIAC), between governmental forces and non-governmental armed groups, or between such groups only. IHL treaty law also establishes a distinction between non-international armed conflicts in the meaning of common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and non-international armed conflicts falling within the definition provided in Art. 1 of Additional Protocol II.​

Why is this question important?

◈ IF, as some Arab Palestinians claim, that the State of Israel is really "occupied Palestinian Territory THEN the confrontation becomes (by definition) an NIAC, two political factions fighting over the same territory. That is NOT State 'vs' State but faction (one being Israeli) 'vs' faction (one being Arab Palestinian).​
........................................................OTOH
IF the confrontation is NOT between two factions, but rather two states, THEN that implies that the Arab Palestinians recognize Israel as a state having a defined sovereignty territory.​

This then brings up the question as to the impact:

◈ What impact did the 1988 abandonment of the West Bank and Jerusalem have on the territorial control; since there was NOT an established Arab Palestinian State (alla the 1933 Montevideo Convention) until 2012?​
◈ What impact did the International Boundary in Article 3 of the Israeli-Jordanian Peace Treaty have on the territorial control of the West Bank and Jerusalem; or the follow-on agreement (Oslo Accords)?​
◈ Does the Arab Palestinian have any legitimate claim to the territory (described as being occupied since 1967) since no Arab Palestinian Government (alla the 1933 Montevideo Convention) existed at that time and that the Arab Palestinian never ever had control of the territory in question until the Oslo Accord agrees that the PLO had fully control over Area "A" of the West Bank.​

These and more issues arise in the wake of some answers here.

This is confusing. The original aggression was when unarmed Palestinian civilians were attacked by foreign unaffiliated terrorist groups. There have been many monkey motion events since then but we have to start at the beginning.

Your comment does not convey any specific information like who the opponents are and who are the foreigners.

(COMMENT)

Again, this is a trick used by the Hostile Arab Palestinians. They make a demand based on something done over a century ago.

The "Israelis" (that means after 1948) did not (intentionally) attack any unarmed Palestinian civilians.

You have to tell me who you claim are the "foreign unaffiliated terrorist groups" and what time frame you are referring to.

The report explores Hamas’s two operational units in Lebanon – El-Shimali and Khaled Ali. With the assistance of the Construction Bureau, the two operational units recruit members, train them in specialized combat skills such as sniping, anti-tank missile attacks, operating drones, and more. The units also develop and produce their own weapons – rockets, offensive drones, and small unmanned underwater vehicles. And they set up operational cells while preparing attack plans against Israel.


In the past, Israeli officials have openly acknowledged that Hamas is building new fronts against Israel, including in southern Lebanon. Those statements received significant confirmation in recent months. Between May and August 2021, there have been five incidents of Grad rockets from Lebanon against Israel. Hamas’s military infrastructure was likely behind these incidents.



Hamas’s activities in Lebanon occur with the assistance and supervision of the Iranian Quds Force, specifically, its Palestine Branch. But that fact doesn’t reflect the full story. Hamas’s relations with Iran – and with Hezbollah – have known their ups and downs – and that’s an understatement.

There is also an America House in Jerusalem for Palestinians.

There is absolutely no reason there cannot be an American diplomatic presence in Ramallah - there already is one.

Which makes the desire to create a consulate in Jerusalem even more of an insult.

Even stranger is the news that the US State Department admits that the US cannot re-open the old consulate without permission from Israel.


Brian McKeon, the U.S. deputy Secretary of State for management and resources, said on Wednesday that Washington would need the Israeli government’s consent before reopening the consulate in East Jerusalem it once used to serve Palestinians.

McKeon said it in testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee when he was asked by Republican Senator Bill Hagerty whether Israel would have to agree to the United States’ reopening a consulate.

“That’s my understanding – that we’d need to get the consent of the host government to open any diplomatic facility,” McKeon responded.

This was not thought through before it became an international incident.

Speaking at a Palestinian Land Day event in Madrid in February, Peralta said it was her “absolute obligation to fight for Spain, to fight for Europe, which are now weak and have been sold off by the enemy. Only the disguise will differ, the enemy will always be the same, the Jew… The Jews are to blame and the Blue Division fought for this.”

In a statement, Shimon Samuels, the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s director of international relations, denounced Peralta and The Third Way, saying Peralta deserves to charged for hate speech.

“Watch out for Isabel,” warned Samuels.

The center also noted that Peralta’s support is out of step with The Third Way and its backers.

“Her donors hate Muslim refugees in particular. Isabel is a great supporter of Hamas and waves banners calling for a ‘3rd Intifada.’ Most interesting is this Hamas connection. Viewed as an ally of the extreme left, it is now revealed to be in the Nazi camp,” the center said.

The JINSA report cited Israeli estimates of 264 total deaths in Gaza during the conflict, including 99 confirmed combatants, 40 believed to be combatants, and 120 civilians, with 20 of those killed by misfired Hamas rockets.

The hostilities claimed the lives of 12 Israelis, including one IDF soldier.

“Hamas serially violated LOAC by directing attacks against Israeli civilians, launching indiscriminate attacks against Israel, and exposing Gazan civilians to avoidable risk to either intentionally complicate Israeli military operations or exploit civilian casualties in order to make false claims of Israeli war crimes,” the report said. “Hamas deliberately located its military assets — including rocket launchers, mortar positions, command and control posts, and military tunnels — in close proximity to civilians, indicating an unlawful intent to utilize human shields and render it near impossible for the IDF to attack lawful targets without serious risk of incidental civilian casualties or collateral damage to civilian property.”

The JINSA report faulted Israel for “insufficiently” countering Hamas’ strategic use of disinformation.

“The mismatch between Hamas’ strategic informational and Israel’s military operational objectives enabled both sides to claim victory in the May 2021 conflict, failing to resolve any foundational issues in the conflict and suggesting a high probability of future hostilities,” it was stated.

Learning from Israel’s experience during the May hostilities, the task force concluded, “the United States should prepare for operations against future adversaries that fight in complex environments, willingly put civilians at risk, and deploy deliberate disinformation campaigns to blame the other side for it.”

Specifically, the Gaza war “reveals the need for cooperation between the United States, Israel, and like-minded nations to address the threat posed by the proliferation of both advanced and effective low-end capabilities from state sponsors of terrorism like Iran and North Korea to unconventional adversaries like Hamas,” the report recommended.

The recent announcement that new housing has been authorized for Hebron Jews predictably stoked fury among Israelis on the political left, for whom Hebron — where Jewish history in the Biblical Land of Israel began — should be reserved for Palestinian Arabs. The new construction project, to be named after Rabbi Chaim Hezekiah Medini, the chief Sephardi rabbi of Hebron more than a century ago, will feature a thirty-one unit apartment building, two kindergartens, and a dormitory for yeshiva students.

Numbers — and living conditions — are revealing. More than 200,000 Palestinians inhabit the prospering Arab sector of Hebron, controlled by the Palestinian Authority, with shopping malls, movie theaters and universities. No Jews live there, nor are they permitted to visit.

Ironically, even the Hebron Jewish Quarter has many more Arab inhabitants than Jews. The tiny Jewish community comprises one thousand residents, nearly one quarter of whom are yeshiva students. Although the Machpelah burial shrine for the Jewish patriarchs and matriarchs is located in the Jewish Quarter, Jewish access to the magnificent and massive chamber where Isaac and Rebekah are entombed is sharply limited to several days annually. Jews may, however, pray at the smaller tombs of the other patriarchs and matriarchs.

For secular Israelis on the political left, any increase in the Hebron Jewish population borders on criminality.

Peace Now identified the settling of Hebron as ”the ugly face of Israel’s control of the territories” — the territories that comprise the ancient Jewish homeland. Indeed, “The moral (and reputational) price of a settlement existing in Hebron is intolerable.” To the contrary: it is Peace Now’s hostility toward Hebron Jews that is intolerable.

The land designated for the new housing project was purchased in 1836 by Avraham Yisrael Romano, a Turkish Jewish merchant. Seventy-five years later his heirs sold it to the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, which opened a yeshiva for Torah study. Confiscated by the Turks in 1914, the property came under British control three years later and became their police headquarters. Once Jordanians gained control of the area in 1948 during Israel’s independence war it became a school. Jews reclaimed the property following the Six-Day War in 1967.

The plan for new construction was approved in 2017 by the Israeli Cabinet. It was, however, stymied by local Arabs, in conjunction with the left-wing Israeli organization Peace Now, whose petitions delayed the issuing of building permits. Now, with these petitions rejected by an Israeli District Court, groundbreaking has begun. As Yishai Fleisher, the international spokesman for the Hebron Jewish community, stated: “Simply put, there is nothing more organic than Jews living in the heart of Judea, in the city of our ancestors.”
