You should watch this video. It could answer many of your questions.

Indeed, you should watch the video. Indeed, It does nothing but waste the viewers time. Why would you expect others to waste their time?

You know that GA opinions are, indeed, opinions, right?

Indeed!

Resolution 194 was based on applicable international law.

Indeed. No it was not.

Palestinians: In a two state solution, do you expect the right of return to Israel?​

You never give a citation. International law has a citation, an ICC Article, an ICJ Judgment, a Council Refedrncde, A UN Resolution, or an International Convention Name.

Just Cite the Original Source Law that was in force or is in force, so we all can examine it. But don't give us another worthless video. Just a one-line citation. I promise no one will accuse you of spamming.

Let me say upfront: I am not an attorney, and I do not practice law. This is my opinion.


BLUF: Well, hell. Another lengthy video. That tells me that you really don't know the answer.

(REMEMBERING)

This is international and is binding:

PART 3.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF CRIMINAL LAW
Article 24 Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court

Non-retroactivity ratione personae
  1. No person shall be criminally responsible under this Statute for conduct prior to the entry into force of the Statute.
  2. In the event of a change in the law applicable to a given case prior to a final judgement, the law more favourable to the person being investigated, prosecuted or convicted shall apply.

(SHORT ANSWER)

NO! UN General Assembly Resolution A/RES/194 (III) → IS NOT binding on the membership and is NOT International Law.

(COMMENT)

The Professor of Law is either relying upon pre-WWI (The Great War) unwritten but (assumed to be ) customary law. - OR - The Professor is relying on post-1948 War (NEW) Law of which the two centerpieces are;


These references come well after the 1967 Six-Day War and the Yom Kipper sneak attack of 1973. One of these is nearly a decades AFTER the 1948 events and one comes a half-century later.

Now there is another issue here that needs to be expressed.

United Nations Charter, Chapter I:

Purposes and Principles

Article 2

The Organization and its Members, in pursuit of the Purposes stated in Article 1, shall act in accordance with the following Principles

Nothing contained in the present Charter shall authorize the United Nations to intervene in matters which are essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of any state or shall require the Members to submit such matters to settlement under the present Charter; but this principle shall not prejudice the application of enforcement measures under Chapter Vll.

The Professor (in his opening monolog) acknowledged that the initial hostilities began in 1947 and that approximately 300,000 Arab Palestinians were displaced - as he put- Forceably Expelled or Taken Flight. And that the pre-15 May 1948 was a Non-International Armed Conflict (as he says a Civil War). That is a conflict within one jurisdiction - outside the authority of the Charter (supra).

As another Challenge, the Professor is salting the discussion with Customary Law in the Western sense. That is, for the purposes of this discussion, the Customary Rule of Law should be of Middle Eastern origin and NOT Western European or the practice of Commonwealth Nation and former territories of the British Empire. The customary practices of Middle Eastern combatants and that of Warlords of Asia Arabia and North Africa are much different.

While the western late 20th Century culture may be much more liberal on the side of the Plaintiff (Arab Palestinians) the customary Regional combatants (supra) is much different.

◈ Is it customary for Middle Eastern combatants and that of Warlords of Asia Arabia and North Africa to offer compensation or restitution such as outlined in A/RES/194 (III)?​
◈ Is it customary for Middle Eastern combatants and that of Warlords of Asia Arabia and North Africa to require victorious forces to return capture territory as outlined in A/RES/194 (III)?​

The Ottoman Empire reached all of North Africa, down the Red Sea to Yemen, and up and into Greece, Albania, Bosnia, Serbia, Romania, and Bulgaria. Not to mention the entirety of the territories all the way to the Perian frontier. Explain to me just what the Customary Rule of Law was pertaining to war reparations, Right-of-Return once expelled, returning private property and territory to the defeated or displaced. The entire Arab/Bedouin Irregular Force on the side of the British Empire looted every city, train, caravan, and fortuitous they destroyed. How did Customary and Regional Law apply?

The presentation was laced with all sorts of "appeal to" fairness, justice, and equality. Let's be reasonable here. What really was the historical application to these Arab Palestinian demands be if it were adjudicated under Arab Rules of the late 19th Century? Let's get real!

(≈Ω)

You still did not answer the question. What is the original source law (binding or International, and enforceable) on which A/RES/194 (III) is based.

I take exception to the term civil war. I think it is one of those terms that people have heard a gazillion times so they assume it to be true. It is not. A civil war would be two groups of Palestinians with differences. That isn't what happened. It was an attack on the Palestinians by foreign colonial settlers.

That and the fact that the Nakba and the 1948 war were two different things change a lot.

The video I posted addressed those questions. They were addressed in the first 20 minutes so you won't have to watch the whole thing.

(COMMENT)

And as I explained in my Posting. The Professor's explanation is NOT an answer. In fact, in a round-about way, the Professor acknowledges that point. There was no binding instrument or any such International Law before the events of 1948. It nearly all comes from assumptions of Law that come well after the events. Most of what he says - that is binding or law comes after these specific events.


The claims made by the Arab Palestinian come from Western European Customary practice and the practice of Commonwealth Nation and former territories of the British Empire. And that cannot be used because it is not based on or derivative of the Customary practice of the Middle Eastern combatants and that of Warlords of Asia, Arabia, and North Africa.

I believe you and the Professor do a grave disservice to the Arab Palestinian cause and International Law by making such claims.
