Zionism Condemned

Self defence is not a warcrime.
A bit like a pensioner coming out of the Post office with his pension.
A mugger tries to grab his pension but the pensioner won't let go of it,he fights back, so the mugger starts to batter him, the pensioner is eventually beaten to death and his pension stolen.
The mugger claims in court that its the pensioners fault that he is dead because he wouldn't let go of his pension.
The muggers defence is that the pensioner attacked him , if he had handed over his pension he would still be alive.
I wonder what the jury would make of that defence.

That's a great story but the fact remains, self defence is not a war crime.
 
Filly demonstrates his ignorance, not once, but he's content to repeat his display of ignorance.
I wonder if he's daft enough to do it a third time? :rolleyes:




In 2006 Michael Byers (he Canada Research Chair in Global Politics and International Law at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.)
wrote:


Clearly it's not inoperative, as shown by Noseall's presentation of the Netanyahu warrant for war crimes.

Michael Byers continues by discussing the difference between jus ad bellum and jus in bellum.

Even in domestic law you can only use a legal reason to negate a criminal act, if the conduct of that action is considered proportionate and necessary.
The Israeli War Crime suspects are not prepared to put their case before the ICC.

Filly relies on jus ad bello, and ignores the rules of engagement, i.e. jus in bello.
He needs to update his knowledge, or alternatively he can continue to demonstrate his ignorance and obvious bigotry.

From your first link:

“How does law protect in war?” promotes practice-based IHL teaching.
Its contents are developed in partnership with academia and do not necessarily reflect the views of the ICRC.

You would deny Palestinians have the same right?

By Jove, he is daft enough to display his ignorance a third time.
And the real ignorance and arrogance is that he makes no attempt to justify or support his belief with any supportive text ot eminent opinion.

Sure, the plea of necessity may be invoked for crimes, including war crimes in International Humanitarian law, and Domestic law.

I wonder why Netanyahu doesn't surrender to the ICC, and submit a plea of necessity. :rolleyes:
I think I know why. :rolleyes:

°You need to show that Israel's actions were necessary to prevent imminent peril. Clearly not, There was no danger from Hamas after 7 October.
¹You need to prove that Israel's actions was balanced with the interests of the International Community. Clearly not. Many International organisations and workers were killed.
²You need to demonstrate that the interests of other nations were not impaired, like not creating millions of refugees.
³You need to show how the actions of Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas were not created by the conduct of Israel.
ªYou need to prove that Israel's actions in Lebanon are due to Lebanon's actions, and not Hezbollah. Similarly, any action against Iran is due to the actions of Iran, and not the actions of Hamas, Hezbollah or Houthis.

Good luck with that. :rolleyes:
No wonder Netanyahu dare not surrender to the ICC.

Now try displaying your total ignorance for a fourth time. :rolleyes:
 
The destruction of its foreign aid programmes and budgets in 2025 represented three quarters of the global decline. But the cuts are across the board: 26 of 34 OECD members shrank their budgets, including the five largest providers – France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom …
I think cutting foreign aid is will be beneficial in the long term for the countries affected,not so much in the short term of course.
The West, America in particular use foreign aid as leverage over 3rd world countries, as one 3rd World dictator said, with the Americans you get a loan and a lecture on how to run your country, with the Chinese you get a road and a hospital.
