"Israel has not shared complete information to verify whether U.S. defense articles covered under NSM-20 were specifically used in actions that have been alleged as violations of IHL or IHRL in Gaza, or in the West Bank and East Jerusalem during the period of the report," it said.
Because of that, the administration said it still finds credible Israel's assurances that it is using U.S. weapons in accordance with international law.
The perpetrator didn't tell us what happened so we find their written assurance of innocence still valid.
Reminds me of this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Partition_Plan_for_Palestine#Reports_of_pressure_for_and_against_the_Plan
Saying, for instance, that “the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor” would be deemed anti-Semitic under its terms. The definition also bars any comparison between “contemporary Israeli policy” and “that of the Nazis”.
Lmao this is a guilty conscience talking.
So then what was this about?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Partition_Plan_for_Palestine
Did it not create a Jewish state and an Arab state i.e. Israel and Palestine?
What is the legal basis for additional sanctions on Iran?
Why are they all trying to get labor for free then? They love free!
Israel wants to draw the U.S. into a war with Iran. This has been cooking for a long time.
"Nobody can have any interest in regional escalation [except Israel],” the German ministry said. “All players in the region [except Israel] are called upon to act responsibly and exercise restraint.”
Did we mention Israel is exempt from international law? That's called supremacy.
No surprise the colonizers want the same "2 state solution" the Native Americans got.
Israel has maintained effective control over Gaza since their military occupation ended almost 20 years ago, and they have really been making the Palestinians suffer.
Based on these considerations, some experts have found that “siege” better describes the situation.
However, the Geneva Academy of International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights has said “the majority of international opinion” holds that Israel maintains effective control, even without armed forces present. While legal experts acknowledge that the lack of a military presence does not follow the “traditional approach” to analyzing effective control, they find that military presence is an “evidentiary test only.” They point to authorities such as the Israeli High Court, which have held that occupation status hinges on the exercise of effective control. They, therefore, find that technology has made it possible for Israel to use ongoing force to exercise effective control—imposing authority and preventing local authorities from exercising control—without a military presence.
Specifically, experts from the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory found “noting” positions held by the UN Security Council, UNGA, a 2014 declaration adopted by the Conference of High Contracting Parties to the Fourth Geneva Convention, the ICRC, and “positions of previous commissions of inquiry,” that Israel has “control exercised over, inter alia, [Gaza’s] airspace and territorial waters, land crossings at the borders, supply of civilian infrastructure, including water and electricity, and key governmental functions such as the management of the Palestinian population registry.” They also point to “other forms of force, such as military incursions and firing missiles.”
I think a lot of people just think they will steal Palestine and then be satisfied, forgetting that greed, arrogance, and lebensraum know no bounds. Why would Israel want tons of fighter jets? It's not to wipe out a million starving Palestinians in Gaza, you don't need jets for that. And this should come as no surprise, since David Ben-Gurion said that the success of the 1948 U.N. partition plan of Palestine was part of a larger plan:
Zionist leaders, in particular David Ben-Gurion, viewed the acceptance of the plan as a tactical step and a stepping stone to future territorial expansion over all of Palestine.
and the early terrorist groups that established Israel and the IDF also expressly stated expansion was their aim:
Irgun emblem. The map shows both Mandatory Palestine and the Emirate of Transjordan, which the Irgun claimed in its entirety for a future Jewish state. The acronym "Etzel" is written above the map, and "raq kach" ("only thus") is written below.
Fun fact about the 1948 U.N. partition plan:
The Arab Higher Committee, the Arab League and other Arab leaders and governments rejected it on the basis that in addition to the Arabs forming a two-thirds majority, they owned a majority of the lands.[20][21] They also indicated an unwillingness to accept any form of territorial division,[22] arguing that it violated the principles of national self-determination in the UN Charter which granted people the right to decide their own destiny.
And Israel bribed, threatened, and offered loans (given by the U.S.) to countries to vote in favor of the partition plan, so anyone who supports Israel on the basis of justice or fairness really doesn't have a leg to stand on.
In that link, the section Reports of pressure against the Plan
shows just how anti-semitic Zionism is.
Yes and the U.S. was also literally like "why should we stop burning coal, the underdeveloped countries (esp China) will still be burning coal decades after we stop, it's not going to make a difference if we stop".
Turns out the real driving force was actually bribery ("lobbying") all along.
unfair trade barriers
Did they forget what globalization means? Globalization means that other countries open their economy completely to U.S. companies while the U.S. grants import quotas (at best) for other countries (as long as they behave nice).
And what does this actually mean:
“I will press my Chinese counterparts to take necessary steps to address this issue.”
"Let me win again Mom said it's my turn to win again."
They always "face pressure" when they get anywhere near an actually free market.
Already in the 1920s the Labor movement disregarded its socialist roots and concentrated on building the nation by constructive action. According to Tzahor its leaders did not "abandon fundamental ideological principles".[15] However, according to Ze'ev Sternhell in his book The Founding Myths of Israel, the labor leaders had already abandoned socialist principles by 1920 and only used them as "mobilizing myths".
