RE: All The News Anti-Palestinian Posters Will Not Read Or Discuss

BLUF: For the Special Rapporteur (past and present) on the situation of Human Rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967 → have attempted to force an aura of self-importance or halo that suggests they are relevant to the course of human events in the Middle East. The Special Rapporteur uses a number of different techniques, the most common of which is a repetition of a statement or statements in their reports. These changes involve very slight but spectacularly important changes to the wording. One of the most common of these is the one repeated hereby our friend "P F Tinmore."
First, UNSC Resolution S/RES/242 (1967) uses the language:
Second, Article 2(4) of the UN Charter does not address the issue of "acquisition at all.
The Special Rapporteurs are desperately trying to use the Charter and the UNSC Resolution as justification for their anti-Israeli position. And Lord Caradon is no longer about to clarify the meaning. Thus we can only go on the written records in which they are twisting the words to amplify the false, inaccurate, or misleading information relative to the intent as to the carefully worded UNSC Resolution.
Most Respectfully,

"The Special Rapporteur observed that the absolute prohibition against annexation applies whether the occupied territory was acquired through a war of aggression or a defensive war."
See the previous Posting #3026(COMMENT)“International law is very clear: annexation and territorial conquest are forbidden by the Charter of the United Nations,” said Michael Lynk, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967. “The Security Council, beginning with Resolution 242 in November 1967, has expressly affirmed the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war or force on eight occasions, most recently in 2016.”But neither comes anywhere close to your premise "illegal to annex occupied territory."
This reflects the seminal observation of Lassa Oppenheim, a renowned scholar of international law, who wrote in 1917, amidst the bloodbath of the First World War, that: “There is not an atom of sovereignty in the authority of the occupying power.”
The Special Rapporteur observed that the absolute prohibition against annexation applies whether the occupied territory was acquired through a war of aggression or a defensive war.
Annexation is a flagrant violation of international law, says UN human rights expert
GENEVA (20 June 2019) - Recent statements by senior Israeli political leaders and US diplomats in support of the annexation of parts or all of the occupied West Bank by Israel fly in the face of the absolute prohibition against the annexation of occupied territories, a UN human rights expert...www.ohchr.org
First, UNSC Resolution S/RES/242 (1967) uses the language:
◈ "Emphasizing the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war"
IT DOES NOT SAY:
◈ "territory was acquired through a war of aggression or defensive war"
Second, Article 2(4) of the UN Charter does not address the issue of "acquisition at all.
◈ "shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state,"
The Special Rapporteurs try their best to confuse the issues. But Lord Caradon (Hugh M. Foot)(Chief Drafter of S/RES/242) made it very plain what the intent was in that regard. He went on to say that the use of the 1967 Boundaries was NOT to form of a permanent frontier.An Interview with Lord Caradon (1907-1990) said:I defend the resolution as it stands. What it states, as you know, is first the general principle of inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war. That means that you can’t justify holding onto territory merely because you conquered it. We could have said: well, you go back to the 1967 line. But I know the 1967 line, and it’s a rotten line. You couldn’t have a worse line for a permanent international boundary. It’s where the troops happened to be on a certain night in 1948. It’s got no relation to the needs of the situation.
The Special Rapporteurs are desperately trying to use the Charter and the UNSC Resolution as justification for their anti-Israeli position. And Lord Caradon is no longer about to clarify the meaning. Thus we can only go on the written records in which they are twisting the words to amplify the false, inaccurate, or misleading information relative to the intent as to the carefully worded UNSC Resolution.
