RE: Boycott Israel
※→ P F Tinmore, et al,

The State of Israel has never been the aggressor. It has always been, from the moment of independence, that elements within the Arab League threatened or actually used force against the territorial integrity of Israel. the Arab League consistently work outside the tenants of the with the UN Charter.

You always base your posts on the false premise that Israel is defending itself.
Israel has always been the aggressor.

(COMMENT)

It was always elements of the Arab League that worked to deny Israel its right to self-determination.

• Israeli war of independence (November 1947 – July 1949)
• Reprisal operations (1950s–1960s)
• Suez Crisis (October 1956)
• Six-Day War (June 1967)
• War of Attrition (1967–1970)
• Yom Kippur War (October 1973)

There is no question that the Arab League threatened or actually used force against Israel. Just as the Hostile Arab Palestinians were responsible for:

• First Intifada (1987–1993)
• Second Intifada (2000–2005)
• Gaza War (December 2008 – January 2009)
• Operation Pillar of Defense (November 2012)
• Operation Protective Edge (July–August 2014)

Remembering That Protected persons (in this case the Arab Palestinians) who commit an offenses which are solely intended to harm the Occupying Power (in this case Israel) --- and --- those Protected Persons (in this case the Arab Palestinians) espionage, of serious acts of sabotage against the military installations of the Occupying Power (in this case Israel) or of intentional offenses which have caused the death of one or more persons, are criminals and punishable under Article 64 thru 68 of the Geneva Convention,

The sttandard comeback is that the Arab Palestinian has some right to pursue a Jihadist Movement, a Fedayeen Action, Hostile Insurgency Operation, Radicalized Islamic Behavior, and Asymmetric Violence as a means of liberation. They still can be held accountable and subject to prosecution.

"There are certain cases about which some hesitation may be felt. We may mention, first, the case of partisans, to which Article 4, A (2) [ Link ] , of the Third Convention refers. Members of resistance movements must fulfil certain stated conditions before they can be regarded as prisoners of war. If members of a resistance movement who have fallen in to enemy hands do not fulfil those conditions, they must be considered to be protected persons within the meaning of the present Convention. That does not mean that they cannot be punished for their acts, but the trial and sentence must take place in accordance with the provisions of Article 64 [ Link ] and the Articles which follow it."

Israel is not free from flaws. However, this book draws a clear distinction between legitimate criticism and the industry of lies that has emerged from two unlikely sources - the media and academia - undermining their reputation as bastions of truth and knowledge. Ben-Dror Yemini presents an in-depth analysis of the many inaccurate and malicious accusations leveled against Israel and refutes them one by one in this thought-provoking and well-researched volume that invites us to rethink the causes and consequences of the Israeli-Arab conflict.

FIFA's decision to reject the PFA's demands is a great victory for Israel as the imposition of sanctions, or even the threat to do so, would have caused irreparable damage to Israeli sport, and PMW is very pleased to have played an important role.

PMW also cooperated with The Lawfare Project (in the US), UK Lawyers for Israel, and the Israel Institute for Strategic Studies, and made detailed submissions in defense of the Israel FA, that showed that the Palestinian claims were baseless and political in nature.
These efforts were also recognized by FIFA's Council when it noted that its decision had been taken "after a thorough legal consultation process" and "that the current situation is, for reasons that have nothing to do with football, characterised by an exceptional complexity and sensitivity and by certain de facto circumstances that can neither be ignored nor changed unilaterally by non-governmental organisations such as FIFA." [FIFA Council statement, Oct. 27, 2017]

In 2015, PMW had a similar success when Palestinian supporters submitted several anti-Israel and pro-BDS resolutions, including an attempt to have the Association of Secondary School Teachers in Israel expelled from Education International, the international umbrella organization of teachers' unions. PMW wrote a detailed report on PA education and presented it at the conference in Ottawa and counter resolutions against the Palestinian teachers' unions were submitted by the Israeli teachers' unions. On the last day of the conference, the organizers decided to withdraw both resolutions.

Also good. As a martial artist myself, I find this lack or honor and respect for one's fellow competitors to be repugnant and contrary to the teachings of judo, and any martial art.
