The real issue is that Israel has no right to self-defense against the territory and the people that it occupies. According to the Fourth Geneva Convention, it has a duty and a responsibility to protect those people until the reversion to a status quo ante that preceded hostilities, meaning until sovereignty is returned to the Palestinians. Of course, Israel denies that this is applicable, because it denies that Palestinians are a people, and so they say there is no sovereign to whom to revert.![]()

The state of Israel has the right to defend against any enemy.
If the whole concept of self-defense is according to her.
any false territorial claims make her murder legal.
She tries to argue for the legality of murdering
every Israeli, and Israelis rightfully defend
