RE: The UN concludes that Israel has established an APARTHEID REGIME...
※→ P F Tinmore,
et al,
You are not paying very much attention; thinking that the Palestinians have something special that the Israelis do not have.
From your link:
1. Reaffirms that the universal realization of the right of all peoples, including those under colonial, foreign and alien domination, to self-determination is a fundamental condition for the effective guarantee and observance of human rights and for the preservation and promotion of such rights;
From my link:
3. Reaffirms the inalienable right of the Namibian people, the Palestinian people and all peoples under foreign and colonial domination to self-determination, national independence, territorial integrity, national unity and sovereignty without outside interference;
The Palestinians specifically have the rights of a people under foreign and colonial domination.
Where does that put the foreign colonial government of Israel?
(COMMENT)
The Israelis are protected against and have exactly the very same rights as anyone else; including the Palestinians.
√ The principle that States shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, or in any other manner inconsistent with the purposes of the United Nations;
• The Israelis have the Chapter VII right to defend themselves against the Hostile Arab Palestinians that threaten or actually attempt to use force against the territorial integrity of the State of Israel --- and --- to establish such defensible borders and protective measures as may be necessary for the sovereignty and safety of the Israel people.
√ The principle that States shall settle their international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security and justice are not endangered;
√ The duty not to intervene in matters within the domestic jurisdiction of any State, in accordance with the Charter;
• Israel has a right to avail itself to international law on the matter of non-intervention in the internal affairs of States; wherein the Arab Palestinians should not otherwise intervene in any way in the internal affairs of other Israel.
√ The duty of States to co-operate with one another in accordance with the Charter;
• The Arab Palestinians have a duty to cooperate with other Israel in the maintenance of international peace and security;
√ The principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples;
• Israel has the right under Chapter VII to present a firm opposition to Arab Palestinian acts of military intervention, aggression and occupation, that are intended to resulted in the suppression of the Israeli right to self-determination.
√ The principle of sovereign equality of States;
• Pursuant to Article 2:1 of the UN Charter, Israel has the right to protect it the sovereign equality in the face of Arab Palestinian acts of aggression, as well as, Jihadism, Deadly Fedayeen Action, Hostile Insurgency Operations, Radicalized Islamic Behaviors, and Asymmetric Violence that threaten Israel economically, politically and in matters of security.
√ The principle that States shall fulfill in good faith the obligations assumed by them in accordance with the Charter;
• Israel has no reason, at this point, to believe that the past practices and political-military behaviors of the Arab Palestinians warrant an acceptable risk in making concession, compromises, or allowances that would benefit the Arab Palestinians and weaken Israeli protections and security.
There has always been a question as to the ability of the Arab Palestinians --- and --- whether or not they were able to stand by themselves under the strenuous conditions of the modern world; dating back to the time of the Covenant. It was a question of whether, if ever, such time may come when they are able to stand alone. This is still a question. And there is still the further question as to whether the level of violence originating from this territory will represent anything other than a threat to regional security.
Most Respectfully,
