Nations calling for ‘Palestinian statehood’ contravene UN charter

2

Paradoxically any nation calling for ‘Palestinian statehood’ would be contravening the United Nations International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms Of Racial Discrimination. General Assembly Resolution 2106 dated December 21 1965, directly negate the racist Palestinian Charters of the Palestinian Authority (the former dated 1964, updated 1968) and the Palestinian Hamas Charter of 1988 which replicate the manifestos of Nazi Germany in numerous articles embedded within both Charters.

Demanding both the elimination of Israel, Jew extermination and the subservience to Islam of all other races and religions, both Charters directly breach, contravene and indeed mock Resolution 2106. The Palestinian Hamas Charter underlines still further the moral indecency of Palestinian demands in Article 17 in which it specifically states that various charitable organizations currently assisting  all those, for example who are the world’s sickest , poorest and underprivileged , those who  are terminally ill , the mentally and physically disabled , abused children and so on, are exterminated.  If you don’t believe me then read the Charters of the Palestinians. Nauseating is an understatement – how can any morally decent diplomat representing their nationals support Islamic Nazism? Each and every individual who has been conned into supporting the Palestinian cause should first and foremost understand their morally indecent Charters just so those individuals can satisfy themselves on the Nazi equivalent manifestos they are supporting.

Both Charters below sink to the deepest levels of human depravity consistent with the aims and objectives of the most barbaric since the beginning of time. To know that there are those in this world, supporting such depraved objectives in order to achieve Palestinian Nation State status is truly beyond comprehension and those racists supporting the ‘Palestinian cause’ as per the Charters below should be ashamed, re-educated and exposed.

And these Charters have formed the bedrock of the Palestinian education system – three generations of children inundated with Jew hatred and racist ideology.

Given the number of qualified, pro-Israeli academics, politicians both globally and within Israel, and eminent pro-Israeli lawyers, who far more eloquently than I could debate the issues raised here – why oh why are they silent? In all my years as a researcher and activist when these issues are raised, I have never encountered any challenge that changes the facts as described above. I have encountered rabid hostility and a lack of intellectual debate but never anything that remotely comes close to negating anything I have written and believe to be the legal status as of today and for time immemorial.

But perhaps even if the truth eventually morphed into the truth instead of maintenance of lies, fiction and fake news will it make any difference?

Even if I am wrong in my challenges and understanding surely by just reviewing a map of the area exposes not Jewish – Israeli – Zionist colonialism but Islamic expansionism and colonialism similar to the Middle Ages and the Christian Crusades or the objectives of Nazi Germany and the colonialist success of the post war Soviet Union. Jewish expansionism, if that was and it was not the objective as per the map below has been a total failure.

And this is where the writings of the Arab academic and historian Joseph Farah ring so true. In “Myths Of The Middle East” he pens the following:

“There has never been a land known as Palestine governed by Palestinians. Palestinians are Arabs, indistinguishable from Jordanians, another recent invention, Syrians, Iraqis, etc. Keep in mind that the Arabs control 99.9 percent of the Middle East lands. Israel represents one tenth of one percent of the landmass. But that’s too much for the Arabs. They want it all. And that is ultimately what the fighting in Israel is about today. No matter how many land concessions the Israelis make, it will never be enough”.

The legal timeline – only for academic support of the paragraphs above.

Balfour Declaration November 2 1917:

A statement of intent of British Foreign Policy – Viewed with favor the establishment of a Jewish National Home in Palestine. This policy became part of International Law when it was included in the San Remo Resolution (adopted April 25th 1920 by the Supreme Council of the Allied Powers) which was itself incorporated into Article 22 of the 1919 League of Nations Covenant from which the  nations of Syria, Lebanon and Iraq emerged.

The San Remo document was further incorporated within the Treaty of Sevres and remained unchanged in the ratified Treaty of Lausanne of 1923.

Faisal – Weizmann Agreement for Arab-Jewish Cooperation January 1919

“We Arabs …. look with the deepest sympathy on the Zionist movement…. we will wish the Jews a most hearty welcome home. I and my people look forward to a future in which we will help you and you will help us so that the countries in which we are mutually interested may once again take their places in the community of the civilized peoples of the world”.

Smuts Resolution, January 1919:

Jan Christian Smuts formulated the details in a memorandum which became known as the Smuts Resolution.

Officially endorsed by the Council of 10 on January 30 1919 – Palestine as envisaged by the Balfour Declaration named as a Mandated State. It became Article 22 of The League of Nations Covenant which governed and established the Mandates System. It was also incorporated within the Treaty of Versailles and other peace treaties made with Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey after WW1.

Paris Peace Conference, February 1919:

In which the Mandate for Palestine was reviewed for inclusion within the League of Nations Covenants and where the Council of Ten endorsed the development of Palestine into a Jewish Commonwealth with extensive boundaries.

Treaty of Versailles, June 1919

The League of Nations Covenant which itself created the Mandate System forms the preamble of the Peace Treaty of Versailles.

San Remo Resolution April 1920

The Magna Carta of the Jewish people, it became Article 95 of the Treaty of Sevres and retained its validity as an act of International Law when inserted into the Preamble of the Mandate for Palestine by 52 States of the League of Nations.

Article 22 of the League of Nations Covenant also implemented the Mandate for Palestine, the Balfour Declaration and the San Remo Resolution.

The Mandate has 58 Articles and is the official Legal creation of the Jewish State adopted by the 52 Nations and by the Supreme  Council of the Principal Allied Powers.

Under this Resolution the Principal Allied Powers charged the British Government with the responsibility and legal obligation of putting into effect the Balfour Declaration and the borders of Israel / Palestine including Cis and TransJordan.

It combined Article 22 of the League of Nations with the Balfour Declaration.

Arab National aspirations recognized too –

Saudi Arabia / Hijaz 1931

Iraq (Mesopotamia ) 1932

Lebanon 1943 and Syria -under French Mandate 1946.

Treaty of Sevres, Article 95 , August 10 1920

The San Remo Resolution became Article 95 of The treaty of Sevres which was itself inserted into the Preamble of The Mandate For Palestine thus becoming an act of International Law when confirmed by the League of Nations

Franco British Boundary Convention – December 23 1920

Identified and confirmed all borders of the Jewish State from Dan to Beersheba. In other words, the borders of present-day Israel would embrace the geographical historical areas settled by the twelve tribes of Israel both East and West of the Jordan River.

Agreed by David Lloyd George and Georges Clemenceau defined Palestine as from Dan to Beersheba and also included Trans-Jordan, Saudi, Mesopotamia, Syria.

The Mandate for Palestine – July 22, 1922

This included and implemented both the Balfour Declaration and the League of Nations Covenant Article 22 which itself included and incorporated the San Remo Resolution.

As Howard Grief, the internationally acclaimed expert penned:

“All of these were building blocks in the legal structure that was created for the purpose of bringing about the establishment of an independent Jewish State. The Balfour Declaration stated the principle or object of a Jewish State. The San Remo Resolution gave it the stamp of International Law. The Mandate furnished all the details and means for the realization of the Jewish State”.

The idea of an Internationally binding Legal Covenant was the idea of US President, Woodrew Wilson containing his 14 points of January 8 1918.

Mandate system established and governed by Article 22 (also within the Treaty of Versailles).

Preamble of the Mandate for Palestine:

“Whereas the Principal Allied Powers have also agreed that the Mandatory should be responsible for putting into effect the Declaration originally made on November 2nd 1917 by the Government of His Britannic Majesty, and adopted by the said Powers, in favor of the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, whereas recognition has thereby

been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country…”

Article 5 – Great Britain shall be responsible for seeing that no Palestine territory shall be ceded or leased to or in any way placed under the control of the Government of any foreign power.

Great Britain alone divided the land between West (Cis) and Transjordan and illegally gave the Golan Heights to France for Syria in Article 25 – in a unilateral breach of the Mandate.

Article 6 shall facilitate Jewish immigration and shall encourage settlement by Jews on State Lands and Wastelands.

Anglo American Convention December 3 1924 Codified into US Law all of the above.

UN Charter Article 80 – June 1945:

The UN is required to uphold provisions of all previous League of Nations Treaties. ‘Rights gained through a Mandate will not expire as a result of the expiration of the Mandate’. Thus the UN under binding International Law is (was) required to endorse, uphold, ratify and codify into International Law the League of Nations Treaty for Palestine of 1922/3.

This principle of Acquired Rights – Once granted are recognized under a

Treaty or other instruments do not expire with the expiration of the Treaty.

The additional international legal principle of Estoppel further endorses

in reverse the binding principle of Acquired Rights as it does not permit any party to a legally binding Treaty as  the League of Nations  Mandate for Palestine, from amending , reversing or reneging on any of the Terms of the Treaty.

UN General Assembly Partition Resolution – November 1947 and May 1948

Not legally binding as General Assembly can only make recommendations (Articles 10 and 14) and this would if adopted had breached the principles of Acquired Rights and Estoppel.

Moreover it was rejected by the Arabs and has always been invalid.

The 1949 Armistice Agreement- the Green Line:

The Armistice Demarcation Line is not to be construed in any sense as a political or territorial boundary as per the Israel Egypt Agreement of February 1949.

No provision of this Agreement shall in any way prejudice the rights, claims and positions of either party….. the provisions of this Agreement being dictated exclusively by military considerations.

Thus, there is no legal basis for calling the 1949 Armistice Lines the 1967 borders.

1964 Palestinian Charter

The PLO does not exercise any regional sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan or on the Gaza Strip or the Himmah area (Golan).

South West Africa – Decision on Mandates July 1966

UN Charter upheld and therefore reiterating the legal borders of Israel as originally defined within the League of Nations Mandate

Vienna Convention Article 70 (1) (b) May 1969

The rights of the Jewish People deriving from the Mandate for Palestine remain in full force. This principle of International Law would still apply even if one of the parties to the Treaty failed to perform the obligations imposed on it e.g. the British Government in regard to the 1922 Mandate for Palestine.

Under the doctrine of Estoppel prohibiting any State from denying what it had previously admitted, committed to or recognized under a former Treaty or any other International Agreement.

The principles of Acquired Legal Rights and Estoppel are codified within this Convention.

The Court of Appeal of Versailles 2013 – in a legal case brought by the Palestinian Authority against the State of Israel regarding a transportation issue, the Court ruled that Israel’s territorial rights under current International law include Judea and Samaria commonly referred to as the West Bank in modern parlance.

Dear readers, Blitz is neither an Israeli State nor Jewish owned or sponsored publication. It is an independent journal which has been publishing the truth under extreme adversities since 2003 – Peter Baum

  1. And just what does legality have to do with the behavior of Elite Establishments.
    As one wit claimed, “For those who make the rules(& sign the treaties) there are no rules”
    What will save the Jews Israel is Israel’s ability to physically defend itself!

  2. Great article Mr Baum.
    The legal right of the Jewish People to reconstitute the Jewish National Home in Judea and Samaria was clearly authorised under article 25 of the Mandate for Palestine. That right was preserved by article 80 of the UN Charter. The United Nations and its various agencies – acting in violation of these two legally unassailable principles on virtually a daily basis – has become a bastion of Jew-hatred and is an absolute disgrace.
