brooklyn13, One, you missed the link. Two, how have you become so hung up on your defense of poor
unfairly picked on Israel even though they have such an impressive record as a lawbreaker nation.

LIST OF INTRNATIONAL LAW VIOLATIONS BY THE STATE OF ISREAL
The state of Israel has violated many international laws, including United Nations Resolutions and the Laws of War and
Occupation as stated in the Fourth Geneva Convention. Below is a summary of some of those violations. Much of the fact sheet
was taken from the Israeli Law Resource Center (ILRC). Related articles and laws by the ILRC are linked below.

Especially while most all others recognize it.

Majority of countries argue Israel violated international law in last historic hearing at UN court

THE HAGUE (AP) — The United Nations’ highest court on Monday wrapped up historic proceedings into the legality of Israel’s 57-year occupation of lands sought by Palestinians for a future state, with most voices at the hearing arguing against the Israeli government.

Over six days, the International Court of Justice heard from an unprecedented number of countries and the majority argued Israel was violating international law and called for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.

“The real obstacle to peace is obvious — the deepening occupation by Israel of the Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, and failure to implement the two-state vision, Israel and Palestine living side by side,” Turkey’s Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Ahmet Yildiz said.

The hearings addressed a request by the U.N. General Assembly for a non-binding opinion on the legality of Israel’s policies. The court says it will issue its opinion in “due course.” On average, advisory opinions are released six months after oral proceedings.

Fiji was one of a handful of countries to argue that the court should refuse the request and directly mentioned the Hamas attacks that set off the war in Gaza and left about 1,200 people dead while Hamas militants also took nearly 250 others hostage.

“The events of 7 October 2023 have shown us what could happen if there were a complete and unconditional withdrawal without the necessary arrangements in place to guarantee the security of Israel,” Filipo Tarakinikini said on behalf of the South Pacific Island nation.

The United States also cautioned the court against issuing an opinion, calling for an immediate withdrawal from the territories. Acting State Department legal adviser Richard Visek said last week the judges should not seek to resolve the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict “through an advisory opinion addressed to questions focusing on the acts of only one party.”

Palestinian Foreign Minister Riad Malki had previously urged the 15-judge panel .. to uphold the Palestinian right to self-determination and to declare “that the Israeli occupation is illegal and must end immediately, totally and unconditionally.”

Though the hearings were held against the backdrop of the Israel-Hamas war, which has killed more than 29,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, it pre-dated this round of conflict and focused instead on Israel’s open-ended occupation of the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem.

Late last month, the court ordered Israel to do all it can to prevent death, destruction and any acts of genocide .. in its military offensive in Gaza. South Africa also filed a separate case accusing Israel of genocide because of its actions in the Strip, a charge that Israel denied.

Israel rejects accusations that its treatment of Palestinians amounts to apartheid and has accused U.N. bodies and international tribunals of bias.

It did not participate in the oral proceedings but, in a five-page written submission, Israel said the questions put to the court are prejudiced and “fail to recognize Israel’s right and duty to protect its citizens.”

Israel captured the West Bank, east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip in the 1967 Mideast war. The Palestinians seek all three areas for an independent state. Israel considers the West Bank to be a disputed territory, whose future should be decided in negotiations.

The peace process has repeatedly stalled because of Palestinian attacks, Israel’s expansion of settlements in occupied territory and the inability of the two sides to agree on issues like final borders, the status of Jerusalem and the fate of Palestinian refugees.

In 2004, the court said that a separation barrier Israel built through east Jerusalem and parts of the West Bank was “contrary to international law.” It also called on Israel to immediately halt construction. Israel has ignored the ruling.

"From today's NY Times:
"Two months ago, world leaders gathered in Paris and said all the right words about the horror unfolding in Sudan, where a vicious civil war has stolen the dreams of a proud and resilient people, leaving 5 million people on the brink of famine.
P - “Sudan has become one of the world’s largest — and most ignored — man-made human tragedies,” my friend Tjada D’Oyen McKenna, chief executive officer of Mercy Corps, wrote me recently."
P - Surely this situation has been caused or is being exacerbated by white colonialist Zionists backed by AIPAC. I don't know about you guys, but it's clearly time to disrupt college campuses and create some mayhem to protest more Zionist imperialism. What colors are the Sudanese keffiyehs? And, if by some small chance, it's not Zionists, then, just never mind, it's cool to keep ignoring it.
"

Pitiful. Your continued idiotic, unfair and unjust suggestion this board does not deal with other inhumane human activity
such as the tragedy of Sudan is ridiculous. See one latest, of likely more than you have ever spent time on yourself:

The World Turns Its Eyes From the Suffering in Sudan

Two months ago, world leaders gathered in Paris and said all the right words about the horror unfolding in Sudan, where a vicious civil war has stolen the dreams of a proud and resilient people, leaving five million people on the brink of famine. In Paris, diplomats pledged $2.1 billion and condemned indiscriminate attacks on civilians, including children.

But nothing has changed.

“Sudan has become one of the world’s largest — and most ignored — man-made human tragedies,” my friend Tjada D’Oyen McKenna, chief executive officer of Mercy Corps, wrote to me recently.

We possibly could agree on one thing: that the tragedy of Israel's breaking more UN laws since
1948 and it's continuing refusal to seriously adopt a two-state solution as mandated in 1947,

Re-birth of a nation

On 29 November, 1947, a 2000-year-old dream became reality: A Jewish State was born anew in its ancient homeland.
On that day the UN General Assembly voted on Resolution 181, adopting a plan to partition the British Mandate into two states, one Jewish, one Arab.

has been a terrible mistake. A mistake which has now reached the extreme brutalities of today.

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
