T. Belman.  In my opinion the C of A should not have recognized that the Geneva Convention applied.

The Court considered that the Geneva Convention applies to the West Bank  BUT. it doesn’t apply.

It only applies when one High Contracting Party (Israel) occupies the land of another High Contracting Party (Jordan)”. The West Bank was never Jordan’s land though it formerly annexed it in 1949. Only two countries recognized the annexation.

It follows that the Geneva Convention does not apply because Israel is not occupying the land of another High Contracting Party.

I believe that this issue was discussed by the High Court of Israel in their fence decision but it was never adjudicated upon. PM Sharon instructed Israel’s lawyers to acknowledge that Israel held the land under “belligerent occupation” and so it did.

In a historical trial carefully « forgotten » by the media, the 3rd Chamber of the Court of Appeal of Versailles declares that Israel is the legal occupant of the West Bank*.

When I first learned that the Court of Appeal of Versailles ruled that West bank settlements and occupation of Judea Samaria by Israel is unequivocally legal under international law, in a suit brought by the Palestinian Authority against Jerusalem’s light rail built by French companies Alstom and Veolia, that received no media coverage, I decided to put to work my years of Law Studies in France, and I meticulously analyzed the Court ruling.

Part 1: Biden’s illegitimate regime

On March 10, 2022 the website of the US State Department reported “The United States recognizes Interim President Juan Guaido and considers the 2015 democratically-elected Venezuelan National Assembly, which he currently leads, to be the only legitimate federal institution, according to the Venezuelan Constitution.  More than 60 countries issued or joined public statements, including the European Union, Organization of American States, Lima Group, and International Contact Group, condemning the fraudulent December 2020 parliamentary elections organized by the illegitimate Nicolas Maduro regime…

Two European Parliament members spoke out on Monday against the E.U.’s use of international law to condemn the Jewish state for “illegal settlements” while not making such legal claims against any other nation in the world. The MEPS made their comments in the European Parliament plenum in Strasbourg.

Netherland MEPs Bert-Jan Ruissen and Michiel Hoogeveen made their remarks in the European Parliament plenum in Strasbourg following numerous statements regarding Israel’s “occupation” from the European External Action Service led by E.U. High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell. Both MEPs belong to the European Conservatives and Reformists Group,

Recognizing that communism didn’t end with the fall of the Berlin Wall, former President Trump said in a speech, “…we will fight the onslaught of radicalism, socialism, and indeed it all leads to communism once and for all.”

Not only does Trump understand that communism is not dead, he perceives that this foreign and alien ideology is in control of the Democratic Party.

T. Belman.  I wouldn’t put it past the PA to kill the reporter using a stolen Israeli gun and bullet. It would not have been the first time that it staged a murder to frame Israel.

It has been indisputably clear from day one who the guilty parties are in the death of Al Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh. 

By  Stephen M. Flatow, ISRAEL HAYOM

The bullet that the Palestinian Authority handed over to US officials may or may not have been the one that killed Al Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh in Jenin in May.

The bullet may or have been too damaged to determine conclusively whose gun it came from.

The bullet may or may not have been fired by an Israeli soldier.

Recently, ahead of U.S. President Joe Biden’s upcoming visit to Saudi Arabia, Israel and the Palestinian Authority, there have been many reports that the U.S. administration intends to promote the establishment of a NATO-like military alliance in the region in order to confront various security threats, chief of them Iran. According to the reports, this alliance is meant to include the moderate Arabs states, among them Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Egypt and Jordan, as well as Israel, and will be discussed at the July 16 summit in Jeddah between Biden and by the leaders of  Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Egypt, Iraq and Jordan.

For a long time, Saudi Arabia was one of the intellectual homes of antisemitic and anti-Israel sentiment. The Wahabi clerics whom the Saudi royal house supported held a special animus for Jews and that animus infused education in Saudi Arabia. Now, though, Saudi Arabia is backing away from this hostility to Israel and its textbooks are reflecting the increasingly friendly relationship between the two nations.

First, the focus is on what is occurring in individual states; second, the focus is on one more elaborative issue that carries national import. A more generalized review pends.

In Arizona, Jovan Hutton Pulitzer presented proof against Dominion Machines; first 34 min deals with his prior presentation and clarification starts at minute 35. Catherine Engelbrecht says the cooperation with law enforcement is not working out; Gregg Phillips reinforces this conclusion (here and here). Thus, True the Vote is ditching that path while pursuing work based on pings referenced in 2000 Mules; also recommended is elimination of mail-in ballots, for all should be counted at the precinct.

A major goal of President Biden’s July, 2022 visit to the Middle East – in addition to increasing the Saudi and Emirati oil production – is the restoration of the US stature as a reliable strategic ally of the pro-US Arab regimes, and stop their drift toward Russia and China.

*At the same time, Biden pursues a JCPOA-like agreement with Iran’s Ayatollahs and embraces the Muslim Brotherhood.

In truth, “insurrection” has been fueled by the Left since 2015.

By Victor Davis Hanson, AM GREATNESS
July 3, 2022

For 120 days in summer 2020, violent protesters destroyed some $2 billion in property and injured 1,500 police officers in riots that led to over 35 deaths.

Because blue-state mayors and governors saw BLM and Antifa instigators as useful street soldiers, most of those arrested were never tried in court. Street thugs paid no price for declaring themselves de facto owners of downtown areas of Seattle, which police themselves conceded were no-go zones. Why did public officials in blue states ignore the violence? They were certain that it enjoyed majority support among their leftwing constituencies.

• The “anti-disinformation” industry has nothing to do with protecting a gullible public from information that might cause them to make bad or unhealthy choices.

T. Belman. It should also be mentioned that all these malevolent actors are focusing the world’s attention on the Jews to deflect the attention from themselves.

I proudly point out the Hillel Neuer and Anne Bayefsky are both Canadians lawyers.

The belief that the law is being used (or rather, abused) as a weapon to advance a political doctrine that has failed to win support at the polls has taken root across diverse segments of Israeli society.

(JNS) “In Israel, the negative impact of the judicialization of politics on the Supreme Court’s legitimacy is already beginning to show its mark. Over the past decade, the public image of the Supreme Court as an autonomous and impartial arbiter has been increasingly eroded … as political arrangements and public policies agreed upon in majoritarian decision-making arenas are likely to be reviewed by an often hostile Supreme Court. As a result, the court and its judges are increasingly viewed by a considerable portion of the Israeli public as pushing forward their own political agenda ... .” — Professor Ran Hirschl, “Towards Juristocracy,” Harvard University Press, 2004

T. Belman.  I hope her worst fears come true. She is obsessed with the poor Palestinians and is begging for someone to help them.

“That’s why U.S. leadership is needed: either to encourage inclusion efforts, or to encourage the Arab states to condition further normalization with Israel on concessions – or even just further confidence building measures – for the Palestinians. But the Biden administration so far has demonstrated no interest in “pushing” Israel.”

I am disgusted by this. Haaretz is committed to the Palestinian clause and against the Zionist project.

No one expects Biden to spend political capital (or even much time) on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict during his upcoming Mideast trip. But as Israel and its new Gulf allies fast-track ties, excluding the Palestinians feeds disturbing trends

By Dahlia Scheindlin, HAARETZ   5.7.22

The Abraham Accords of 2020, normalizing relations between Israel and four Arab countries, was a triumph for Israel but represented bitter lemons for Palestinians. The deals ripped up any residual solidarity that Arab nations once sought to convey for the plight of Palestinians. Any incentives for Israel’s leadership to advance a future peace, or even slow its expanding control over Palestinians, appeared to vanish.

For those that don’t understand why it had to be this way, think about the optics in 2017 juxtaposed to 2022.

I think many of you forgot what it was like in 2017. Trying to wake up normies was a tough business. My friends and family looked at me like I was an eight-headed monster when I told them that a global Deep State entity infiltrated the US government to include the White House, nearly all of Congress, the highest echelons of the DOJ, FBI, CIA, DNI, State Dept, the mainstream media, big tech, social media, Hollywood, academia, pharmaceuticals, health care, etc.
