@@bernie4268 It was one of the most concise, beautiful and brutal reality-check speeches about the nature of the western installed colonial regime of Israel and the near-century old plight of the Palestinians.
Ralph, you gave the best and most helpful delivery at the ICJ, today, 26-Feb-2024. Thank you for your diligence and your service to mankind. For many years into the future, your work will resonate forcefully within numerous social, political and academic circles which seek the best interest of mankind.
Dr. Wilde's presentation on behalf of the League of Arab Nations at the Hague is certainly to send others (as it did me) scrambling to learn more about him. Having listened to both his well structured arguments, I expect many will find his knowledge of International Law critical and as profound as he seemed to be at the Hague this past Monday.
Ralph had the best presentation in front of ICJ. all factual and legal occurrences (in plain truth and in plain English) between Israel versus Palestinian conflict. congratulations and well done to him
I watched the delivery of the argument live. I felt he carried my burden and pain, the feeling of uttar injustice happening in Gaza. All the feelings I had no words to express, he said it for me. Thank you ❤
The best oral argument in favor of the Palestinians' self-determination the world have seen and heard before the ICJ was that of Dr. Ralph Wilde Webinar. Our salute to his ever brilliant and so convincing presentation of the case. May GOD protect and bless him and his loved ones. 😊😊😊
Ralph you were outstanding your speech was very well presented I also learnt things myself .Thanku for all your efforts its very much appreciated. God bless you 🙏🏽 Kia Kaha 🇳🇿 New Zealand 🇳🇿
Dr. Wilde’s presentation at the ICJ was simply brilliant. I had a good grasp of the political nature of the matter and his argument helped to crystallise the legal context of not just the occupation, but also the legality of the process leading up to the establishment of the state of Israel. The only clarity I need in respect of his presentation to the ICJ this year (2024) is whether the UN’s ignoring the provisions of the League Covenant by recognising Israel nullified or amended the Covenant. If not, on what basis in law (customary or established law) is the UN’s decision not lawful? Once again, his was the best argument I’ve heard in many decades of following this struggle of the Palestinian people.
If only Israel (and its fully-owned proxies in the USA and UK and even Canada) actually *cared* about international law! As long as the USA can veto UN resolutions, Israel will just give the rest of the world a finger!
I watched your summation at the ICJ. In fact, I've watched it four times. Not only was I very impressed by your delivery but also by the historical evidence of the injustices the Palestinians have suffered due to the colonisation of their land. Theodore Hertzl, the founder of zionism in the late 19th century, communicated with Britian claiming then that the zionists wanted to colonise Palestine without Arab consent and that they would be an eye in that region for Britian. This was before the Balfour Declaration, which indicates that the zionist movements intention has always been to completely take over all of historical Palestine. In 1967, Israel attacked a US spy ship killing many of the sailors, the family of those men never received judtice for this. However the reason behind the attack was to hide the fact that Israel was in fact carrying out a land grab. I really hope that at long last Palestinians can have their own state which has long been denied to them
In 1948 the Palestinian clans met and decided to become Jordanian, so much for 'self determination' Jordan annexed the WB and ended it, Egypt absorbed Gaza into its federation with Syria. Sounds like a land grab.
ISRAEL if you want PEACE …Love your Neighbours as you Love Yourselves ! - End Apartheid, and create a Bill of Rights, and Constitution, that guarantees equality for all citizens ! - End Illegal Settlement !- Enable the Two State Solutions, Pre67 Borders, including East Jerusalem, and Golan Heights, for Palestinian Non Israeli Citizens, including displaced refugees ! - Create a Joint Education Curriculum, for both communities! 🙏
Israel offered the Golan back to Syrian in exchange for peace, Syria said no, that ship sailed, Israel will never let a failed state like Syria, that can't even govern itself, have the Golan with a clear view of all of Israel.
From the Torah, if we are talking loving your neighbour. 'Thus the land became defiled; and I called it to account for its iniquity, and the land spewed out its inhabitants. 26But you must keep My laws and My rules, and you must not do any of those abhorrent things, neither the citizen nor the stranger who resides among you; 27for all those abhorrent things were done by the people who were in the land before you, and the land became defiled. ' Straight from God, so the question arises are you sacrificing your religion for a country you must not return to according to the Torah?
If he was an expert he would make legal rather than political arguments. He would have to answer why a people (Arabs) argued they were deserving of a state because they were homogenous (Paris peace Conference 1964) are also entitled to the Jewish state in 1964 from Egypt. He would have to explain how a people who chanted "From Turkey to Gaza Palestine does not exist!" is deserving of self determination when that self identification in the Peel Commission states they were Syrians. He would have to explain how the Arabs get Syria and Iraq through the Mandate, but also deserving the trans-Jordan by threatening violence. He would have to explain how Uti Possidetis Juris does not apply when the beneficiaries are Jews but Uti Possidetis facto applies to Arabs in 1948 when they take land by war, but does not apply to Jews in 1967 when they were attacked. He represented the Arab League in 2024 claiming the Jews were committing genocide, when the Arab Leagues private army (ALA's) symbol was an Arabesque dagger stabbing a Star of David. He would have to answer how closing the Red Sea to Israeli shipping is not a cause of war, and how the deliberate targeting of Jewish civilians is "freedom fighting" that should be rewarded. But I digress. International law is with Israel, and that is why it is ignored for cheap Marxist political arguments narrowed to only apply to Israel in time and geography while ignoring the Arab immigration to the late Ottoman Empire and British Mandate for Palestine. He must also answer ho the British were not in breach of their duty to Jewish immigration as they forbade the St Louis and Struma from entering the Mandate for a Jewish state by international law, while the Arabs got Syria, Iraq, and 70% of the Mandate for a Jewish state on the one hand while allowing illegal Arab immigration into "Palestine" numbering 700K despite their hostile intention and at the expense of Jews escaping Nazi Germany, Muslim North Africa, and Baathist Iraq. @michellenorris8471
This is international law: 1. Post WWI the winners asked the people of the former Ottoman Empire to make a case for a state. The Arabs and Jews made their pleadings on Feb 6 and Feb 27 1919. Arabs stated they deserve a state because they were a homogenous people. Jews then made their pleading for a Jewish state based on their historical connection to the land. Yet they were not ready to take control, so asked for a trustee/guardian to facilitate the foundation for a state that will be "Jewish" as France was French or Britian was British. In 1920 the world leaders met at San Remo Italy for a conference and created two Arab states (Syria and Iraq) and one Jewish state (in what is today Israel and Jordan.) A Mandate Trusteeship was created to transfer control to Arabs and Jews respectively. 2. A treaty of Sevres transferred title to the Arab and Jews. 3. Arabs were upset that Fisal was not made king of Syria threatened violence and the British in breach of article 5 ethnically cleansed the "east" bank of Palestine/Holy Land/Jewish state to a Fisal's brother Abdullah. And Fisal was made king of Iraq. to do this the British added article 25 of the British Mandate which ethnically cleansed Jewish presence from the Trans-Jordan (east bank) and breached the rights and liberties of the Jews in the Trans-Jordan. (you forgot to mention Jews rights were to be guaranteed in other states just as civil and religious liberties were to be protected in the British Mandate for Palestine to create a Jewish state.) 4. The Arabs of Palestine or rather a group calling itself the Palestine Arab Congress wrote the Paris Peace Conference that they were Syrian nationally, economically, religiously, and morally. They were ignored. The Arab delegation at the Paris Peace conference said that the Arabs were a homogenous people and based on this deserved a state. (aka no such thing as Arab Palestinians). In the 1920s and 1930s Arab violence created terrible conditions in the Mandate for Palestine. Arab violence ethnically cleansed Jews from Hebron and Gaza. A Peel Commission was established where an Arab delicate said, the Arabs were Syrians, and Palestine was an invention of the Jews. The Peel Commission began moving away from the Mandate to establish a Jewish state and suggested partitioning Palestine again further into another Arab state, a mini Jewish state, and a British protectorate. 5. BY this time everything the British were doing could be seen in light of a potential war in Europe with Nazi Germany. The British feared that the Arabs would join the Nazis. Italians at the time were arming the so called Arab revolt which saw gangs of mostly foreign gangs attack British, Jews, and other Arabs in Palestine, and later in Iraq as well. The British issued a white paper limiting and eventually ending Jewish immigration to the land of Israel just as the holocaust was beginning. 6.By 1944 it was apparent that the allies would win the war, so a breakaway faction of the Hagana called the IZL (I am jumping a few steps) began a revolt against the British eventually blowing up the British headquarters in Palestine (the King David Hotel) leading the British to hand over the issue to the newly established UN who took over for the League of Nations. 7. UN's charter article 22 called for the Mandate for Palestine to establish a Jewish state, ignored its own charter and voted in a non-binding and largely meaningless resolution to partition western Palestine into a Jewish and Arab state with a UN canton in Jerusalem and Bethlehem. Nothing was done about this, the British even bared UN people from entering Palestine. The British then said they were going to leave and a civil war broke out. 8. April 1948, the Arabs suffered a number of losses in Jaffa, Haifa, Castel and a small town called Dir Yassin. The IZL fought in Dir Yassin and Jaffe. It became popular with the Jewish community for "chasing out the British" and the Socialist Jewish parties worried these non-socialist revisionist party affiliated would win the election after the war. They began telling lies that the IZL committed a massacre in Dir Yassin. The IZL claimed it had a bigger battle at Dir Yassin than happened. The British who were still around and hated the IZL for their revolt, claimed the IZL committed a massacre. The Arab leadership claimed that not only did the "jews" commit a massacre but also raped the women. This last claim caused a panic among the Palestine Arab community. And while 100,000 left before the April 1948, now a mass exodus took place. By May 1948, Arab armies poised to invade told local Arabs to leave, and any rab who did not leave would be considered a traitor caused another wave of refugees to leave. All in all 160,000 Arabs decided to stay and became Isaeli citizens. 9. By 1949 the Arab armies took the Gaza Strip, the Trans-Jordanians occupied the Judean hills and called it the "West" bank of the east bank. And the Arabs that fled (they were not expelled) became refugees. In 1964 the Egyptians created a PLO group that claimed it represented a Palestinian Arabs. And wished to retake (not Gaza Strip or "West" bank but) Israel. In 1967 Israel was able to reclaim its lost territories of the Gaza Strip and "West" bank, actually Judea and Samaria were the names of the areas. 10. In 1994 Israel gave the Arabs in the former occupied territories autonomy under the PLO. However they continued to attack Israel through terrorism. By 2001 they began shooting rockets at Israeli civilians. In 2005 Israel left the Gaza Strip and an Islamist group called Hamas took over. 11. On October 7 2023, under a barrage of rocket fire, Hamas and other Arab terrorists launched an attack against Israel where they raped, murdered, burned, beheaded, and kidnapped 240 Israelis (and or their bodies or body parts such as a head of an Israeli solider) to Gaza which broke out a war against Hamas. In an twist of irony (had there not been enough of those) the Jews were accused of genocide against the Arabs, as if 1929 massacre and ethic cleansing did not happen, as if the partial in 1922 of the east bank did not ethnically cleans the Jews living there, and as if Jews whose rights were guaranteed under the League of Nations Covenant were not ethnically cleansed from Arab states such as Iraq, Syria, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Yemen, ...ect. 12 this is just the cliff notes and I skipped over a lot of details. But you are missing the Paris peace conference, the San Remo Conference where Arabs and Jews go their states. Iraq became independent in 1932, Syria in 1946, Israel in 1948. The war is not about Arab need but Arab greed. @michellenorris8471
Great performance Ralph , the world is very much thankful and grateful to you . This is not Only for the suffering Palestinians , but also for the people of the world that are Against the inhumanity by the Zionist .YOU HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT THE SUPERIORITY MINDSET IN OUR 21ST CENTURY NEEDS TO GO INTO THE WASTEBASKET OF HISTORY BECAUSE WE ARE ALL HUMANS, THERE IS NO INFERIOR Race, class or culture , it's only a complex By those in positions of power And authority. As you should know , ENGLAND WAS THE FIRST COLONIAL POWER TO GRANT FREEDOM TO ITS SLAVES. THATS WHY HERE IN AMERICA THEY HAD BLACKS FIGHTING IN THE WAR OF INDEPENDENCE .ASIDE FROM THAT, I AM WRITING A BOOK ABOUT HOW AMERICA USES THE ENGLISH COMMON LAW, DESPITE ITS REPEAL BY A MAJORITY OF STATES AGAINST A CERTAIN CLASS Specifically minorities . It is Similar to what you have presented to the I C J. ON BEHALF OF ALL THOSE THAT DIED AND PROTESTER AROUND THE WORLD AS WELL AS THOSE WHO CONTINUE TO SUFFER , GOD BLESS.
The land grabbers and their supporters cannot say the land is promised by God. This is utter rubbish. If this is so, the Red Indians, the Moaris, the Aborigines of Australia have legal rights over their land for being there first. Unless you say the Europeans are the promised people too.
The 'palestinians' were occupied by Egypt and Jordan from 48-67, there was ZERO calls for a 'palestinian state' from those oppressed and occupied people, Jordan even annexed the West Bank, and Egypt incorporated Gaza into the Egyptian/Syrian confederation, what about these land grabbers?
The irony is that Judah, Yehudi or Jews are just one of the 12 tribes of Israel and according to Josephus they intermarried with the Herodian descendants of Esau
They know that are ilegal settlers but they are acting like they don't know , like they have done for centuries , they play the game to see how far they go. Is nothing but a game kf power, but now they wre paying the pry , nothing in this life is Free.
@afrusali1412 the Balfour declaration (it's a deceleration, not a "treaty") was made some 16 years BEFORE the Nazis came to power in Germany, so how can you claim that the British made the deceleration because they "didn’t want the reputation of Germany"?
In 2006, with Hamas winning, and the US (Bush) immediately undermining the election results. See the wiki entry, including this among other bits > 'Vanity Fair has obtained confidential documents, since corroborated by sources in the U.S. and Palestine, which lay bare a covert initiative, approved by Bush and implemented by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Deputy National Security Adviser Elliott Abrams, to provoke a Palestinian civil war. The plan was for forces led by Dahlan, and armed with new weapons supplied at America's behest, to give Fatah the muscle it needed to remove the democratically elected Hamas-led government from power. (The State Department declined to comment.)'
Before most people who have been killed by the IDF were born. Basically izraeLis murdered children who didn't even vote for Hamas, and the last vote only half of palestinian adult voters voted
From what I gather, although Israel may have had the right to occupy Gaza and the West bank after 1967 for self defense. The fact that Israel used disproportionate force and engaged military control that in fact was an act of war against the occupied territories which allows Palestinians the right to fight back. This requires Israel to withdraw from the occupied territories to subside the hostility which they have not. Israel therefore lost it's right of occupation and put itself in a state of war with the Palestinians. Therefore the international community must side with the Palestinian people for self determination and cessation of the occupation. If I understood you correct. And with respect to the settlers. Palestinians have the right to self determination and legal oversight on the settlements without Israel's intervention.
Wouldn’t it be better to stop talking about pro-Israel or Israel supporters or friends/allies of Israel? instead I would suggest pro-nazis, nazi-supporters and friends/allies of the nazis as this explains the current atrocities
So the Palestinian people should be free of external domination, but governance should be passed to people within their society exercising internal domination? Both potential governments of Gaza, the All-Palestine protectorate post-1948 and Hamas today, consisted of people who murdered much of their serious opposition. Release the Palestinian people from this internal, theocratic, classist brand of autocracy and stop blaming Israel.
The land of Jews was taken by war,many blood were taken, life were brutaly killed.why taker of That land, claim with full right, to take it back is illegal... who's law as based... illegality 😊😊
First it's not the land of Jews. Second most so called Jews are Ashkenazi descendents of European mothers which makes them nonJews, third the Hebrews are invaders themselves and had two short instances in history where they had a village or two called " kingdom " they, created those entities by bloodthirsty ways and were then expelled by Romans and Persians. But the Arabs brought them back as brothers. We're talking about Arabic Jews aka Semetic Jews
You are sick and crazy. Israel stole land and continue to do so. I used to believe your lie, but now Israel showed us their truth evils without a doubt.
Oh, Ralph, gimme a break from your legalese mambo mambo - or as George Orwell once coined that "Some ideas are so st...d, only an intellectual would agree with them"
@annenunney9907 the land of Palestine has existed for centuries. All of Israel ,Gaza, the Westbank and Jerlusalem is historical Palestine. The majority of Palestinian people have DNA that can be traced back 10,000 years to that region
@@firebyrd437 if im not wrong this land has had many names throughout history israel judea samaria and palestine after roman conquest 2000 years ago and again under the british after WW1 till 1948 when again named israel...
If I could prove your home used to belong to my distant ancestors and was unjustly taken from them 1800 years, would that entitle me to take it from you?
From an International Law perspective, Israel is the occupation power, largely because it controls the land borders, the sea, the air, the calories that Gazans are allowed to eat per day, vets UN workers, and occasionally mows the lawn. Dr Wilde is correct.
You have to go further back than 1917 Sir. Study the Bible history. 1.Land was given to Ishmael's people born from Abraham and Hager. (Arabs) 2. Esau got land in from God in Edom, (Jordan), lived in today's Petra. And Jacob West of Jordan in today's Israel. 3. The Palestinians (named this name by the Persian Empire later on) . They lost Jordan towards the people they hired to do sandstone works for them in today's Petra. They didn't bother to defend themselves, and fled north to Jerusalem and further north to Albania. Hitler used some of them as killers in his wars. When UK eventually had a say over Jerusalem when the Jews got land from UK as well, the UK appointed land to Esau' s people in Gaza. The nearest the Palestinians came to Israel was Jordan. If you force this "Solution of yours" down on Israel, you will face the biggest war the world have ever seen. This land was given t Jacob from GOD himself. The whole rest of the Arab land and Iran and Iraq and Siria was given to Ishmael and Esau. The Arabs, together with all the other people West and North West of Israel today, today MUST ACTUALLY give from THEIR land t the PALESTINIANS. Therefore God says in Obadiah 1:4-8. Esau violated against their brother Jacob and will be "cut off" Study your Bible history and LISTEN what God SAID. GEN 27:29 says clearly if you curse against Jacob you will be cursed. LISTEN.
Double o seven ,the promises You raised In the bible was Forfeitted by the ABOMINATION TO THE TEMPLE AMOS 5 (26-27) ACTS 7 (43)AND THE PUNISHMENT was captivity By Assyria (721 BC) AND ROME (70 AD) TO BE DISPERSED IN THE KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD. THATS WHERE TRUE FAITHFUL JEWS ARE, THOSE IN THE ZIONIST STATE ARE A MINORITY AND CANT EVEN SAY ANYTHING AGAINST THE EVIL COMMITTED BY THE ZIONIST. THEY USE THE NAME ISRAEL TO MISLEAD The world, just as they have done with the name DAVID FOR THE SIX POINTS STAR IN HONOR OF RAMPHEN (ACTS) SO , PLEASE GET OFF THE OLD TESTAMENT, THE PROMISES WAS EXTENDED TO THE GENTILES AND THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY .

The British issued a white paper limiting and eventually ending Jewish immigration to the land of Israel just as the holocaust was beginning. 6.By 1944 it was apparent that the allies would win the war, so a breakaway faction of the Hagana called the IZL (I am jumping a few steps) began a revolt against the British eventually blowing up the British headquarters in Palestine (the King David Hotel) leading the British to hand over the issue to the newly established UN who took over for the League of Nations. 7. UN's charter article 22 called for the Mandate for Palestine to establish a Jewish state, ignored its own charter and voted in a non-binding and largely meaningless resolution to partition western Palestine into a Jewish and Arab state with a UN canton in Jerusalem and Bethlehem. Nothing was done about this, the British even bared UN people from entering Palestine. The British then said they were going to leave and a civil war broke out. 8. April 1948, the Arabs suffered a number of losses in Jaffa, Haifa, Castel and a small town called Dir Yassin. The IZL fought in Dir Yassin and Jaffe. It became popular with the Jewish community for "chasing out the British" and the Socialist Jewish parties worried these non-socialist revisionist party affiliated would win the election after the war. They began telling lies that the IZL committed a massacre in Dir Yassin. The IZL claimed it had a bigger battle at Dir Yassin than happened. The British who were still around and hated the IZL for their revolt, claimed the IZL committed a massacre. The Arab leadership claimed that not only did the "jews" commit a massacre but also raped the women. This last claim caused a panic among the Palestine Arab community. And while 100,000 left before the April 1948, now a mass exodus took place. By May 1948, Arab armies poised to invade told local Arabs to leave, and any rab who did not leave would be considered a traitor caused another wave of refugees to leave. All in all 160,000 Arabs decided to stay and became Isaeli citizens. 9. By 1949 the Arab armies took the Gaza Strip, the Trans-Jordanians occupied the Judean hills and called it the "West" bank of the east bank. And the Arabs that fled (they were not expelled) became refugees. In 1964 the Egyptians created a PLO group that claimed it represented a Palestinian Arabs. And wished to retake (not Gaza Strip or "West" bank but) Israel. In 1967 Israel was able to reclaim its lost territories of the Gaza Strip and "West" bank, actually Judea and Samaria were the names of the areas. 10. In 1994 Israel gave the Arabs in the former occupied territories autonomy under the PLO. However they continued to attack Israel through terrorism. By 2001 they began shooting rockets at Israeli civilians. In 2005 Israel left the Gaza Strip and an Islamist group called Hamas took over. 11. On October 7 2023, under a barrage of rocket fire, Hamas and other Arab terrorists launched an attack against Israel where they raped, murdered, burned, beheaded, and kidnapped 240 Israelis (and or their bodies or body parts such as a head of an Israeli solider) to Gaza which broke out a war against Hamas. In an twist of irony (had there not been enough of those) the Jews were accused of genocide against the Arabs, as if 1929 massacre and ethic cleansing did not happen, as if the partial in 1922 of the east bank did not ethnically cleans the Jews living there, and as if Jews whose rights were guaranteed under the League of Nations Covenant were not ethnically cleansed from Arab states such as Iraq, Syria, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Yemen, ...ect. 12 this is just the cliff notes and I skipped over a lot of details. But you are missing the Paris peace conference, the San Remo Conference where Arabs and Jews go their states. Iraq became independent in 1932, Syria in 1946, Israel in 1948. The war is not about Arab need but Arab greed.
@michellenorris8471
Great performance Ralph , the world is very much thankful and grateful to you . This is not
Only for the suffering Palestinians , but also for the people of the world that are
Against the inhumanity by the Zionist .YOU HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT THE
SUPERIORITY MINDSET IN OUR 21ST CENTURY NEEDS TO GO INTO THE WASTEBASKET OF HISTORY
BECAUSE WE ARE ALL HUMANS, THERE IS NO INFERIOR Race, class or culture , it's only a complex
By those in positions of power
And authority. As you should know , ENGLAND WAS THE FIRST COLONIAL POWER TO GRANT FREEDOM TO ITS SLAVES. THATS WHY HERE IN
AMERICA THEY HAD BLACKS
FIGHTING IN THE WAR OF INDEPENDENCE .ASIDE FROM THAT, I AM WRITING A BOOK
ABOUT HOW AMERICA USES
THE ENGLISH COMMON LAW,
DESPITE ITS REPEAL BY A MAJORITY OF STATES AGAINST A CERTAIN CLASS
Specifically minorities . It is
Similar to what you have presented to the I C J. ON BEHALF OF ALL THOSE THAT DIED AND PROTESTER AROUND THE WORLD AS WELL AS THOSE WHO CONTINUE TO SUFFER ,
GOD BLESS.
Brilliant!
He is have the good looking and the good hearts😢 respect to you sir
The land grabbers and their supporters cannot say the land is promised by God. This is utter rubbish. If this is so, the Red Indians, the Moaris, the Aborigines of Australia have legal rights over their land for being there first. Unless you say the Europeans are the promised people too.
The 'palestinians' were occupied by Egypt and Jordan from 48-67, there was ZERO calls for a 'palestinian state' from those oppressed and occupied people, Jordan even annexed the West Bank, and Egypt incorporated Gaza into the Egyptian/Syrian confederation, what about these land grabbers?
Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo.
Balfour didn’t go through parliament pretty sneaky
The irony is that Judah, Yehudi or Jews are just one of the 12 tribes of Israel and according to Josephus they intermarried with the Herodian descendants of Esau
❤❤❤FREE 🇵🇸
Ralph loved your subject and piece. GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS FROM CANADA 🇨🇦
'israel' is illegal. except there are no laws against invasion, if sponsored by uk and usa.
@alfred-vz8ti. of course Israel is legal !! Ralph Wilde explains it at 05:27
They know that are ilegal settlers but they are acting like they don't know , like they have done for centuries , they play the game to see how far they go. Is nothing but a game kf power, but now they wre paying the pry , nothing in this life is Free.
@user-kn1uo9uy2i "like they have done for centuries"? Who is "they"?
No apartheid has a right to exist, period.
42:00
This is so confusing just because the reality of 30.000 died doesn’t matter
Unfortunately ignores much of the actual international law and precedent. See EV Kontorovich.
How does the concept in international law of Utis possidetis juris apply to Israel? Can anyone explain that to me?
How about Self determination for Kurdistan ?
What about the self determination of Texas ?
There are so many countries who have to be freed from these PATHETIC & sick oppressors.
Everyone must have the right to self-determination fullstop.
Now we can see why the Balfour treaty was British didn’t want the reputation of Germany
@afrusali1412 the Balfour declaration (it's a deceleration, not a "treaty") was made some 16 years BEFORE the Nazis came to power in Germany,
so how can you claim that the British made the deceleration because they "didn’t want the reputation of Germany"?
When where last elections in Gaza or PA ?
In 2006, with Hamas winning, and the US (Bush) immediately undermining the election results. See the wiki entry, including this among other bits >
'Vanity Fair has obtained confidential documents, since corroborated by sources in the U.S. and Palestine, which lay bare a covert initiative, approved by Bush and implemented by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Deputy National Security Adviser Elliott Abrams, to provoke a Palestinian civil war. The plan was for forces led by Dahlan, and armed with new weapons supplied at America's behest, to give Fatah the muscle it needed to remove the democratically elected Hamas-led government from power. (The State Department declined to comment.)'
Before most people who have been killed by the IDF were born. Basically izraeLis murdered children who didn't even vote for Hamas, and the last vote only half of palestinian adult voters voted
Dr Wilde is certainly Queer for Palestine!
However, the Palestinians (aka Arabs) are not so hot for queers.
With good will to all and malice to none.
Notice how he says Mandate you mentioned.
From what I gather, although Israel may have had the right to occupy Gaza and the West bank after 1967 for self defense. The fact that Israel used disproportionate force and engaged military control that in fact was an act of war against the occupied territories which allows Palestinians the right to fight back. This requires Israel to withdraw from the occupied territories to subside the hostility which they have not. Israel therefore lost it's right of occupation and put itself in a state of war with the Palestinians. Therefore the international community must side with the Palestinian people for self determination and cessation of the occupation. If I understood you correct. And with respect to the settlers. Palestinians have the right to self determination and legal oversight on the settlements without Israel's intervention.
This sounds like another Balfour treaty.
@afrusali1412. maybe it sounds like another Balfour DECLERATION, not "treaty"
Gotta pick a pocket or two
Are you going to guarantee the security arrangements
Still the same
Wouldn’t it be better to stop talking about pro-Israel or Israel supporters or friends/allies of Israel? instead I would suggest pro-nazis, nazi-supporters and friends/allies of the nazis as this explains the current atrocities
Does Ralph worry about what will happen to people like him when Islamists take our contry ?
he will put on a burka so everyone thinks he's a woman
You are not going to get a judenrein Jerusalem Samaria or judea .. the experience with Gaza was enough
Samaria and Judea have been renamed the Palestinian West Bank. Sorry, but old bible stories don't have any use in 21st century real estate legalities.
@@pertuancreek5174 oh, you again, indeed names don't matter, facts on the ground do
So the Palestinian people should be free of external domination, but governance should be passed to people within their society exercising internal domination? Both potential governments of Gaza, the All-Palestine protectorate post-1948 and Hamas today, consisted of people who murdered much of their serious opposition. Release the Palestinian people from this internal, theocratic, classist brand of autocracy and stop blaming Israel.
Hamas broke all Oslo agreements
israel broke Oslo agreement...either way Oslo is null and void so does not apply.
@@myblighters Everyone broke the Oslo agreement
Did you read the Hamas Charter ?
Better than the Likud charter , that coined the phrase "from-the-river-to-the-sea "
ICJ is not objective
Come on....these people listening to Ralph could have come up with better questions than that.
The land of Jews was taken by war,many blood were taken, life were brutaly killed.why taker of
That land, claim with full right, to take it back is illegal... who's law as based... illegality 😊😊
Ever heard of native Americans??
First it's not the land of Jews. Second most so called Jews are Ashkenazi descendents of European mothers which makes them nonJews, third the Hebrews are invaders themselves and had two short instances in history where they had a village or two called " kingdom " they, created those entities by bloodthirsty ways and were then expelled by Romans and Persians.
But the Arabs brought them back as brothers. We're talking about Arabic Jews aka Semetic Jews
You are sick and crazy. Israel stole land and continue to do so. I used to believe your lie, but now Israel showed us their truth evils without a doubt.
Oh, Ralph, gimme a break from your legalese mambo mambo - or as George Orwell once coined that "Some ideas are so st...d, only an intellectual would agree with them"
Professor of la t UCL is equivalent of the first year student at the Sorbonne
Where was palestine?
Historic Palestine was there before the manufactured failed statelet of Izrahell.
When ???
Where was it it is in the Middle East and as been there for centuries
@annenunney9907 the land of Palestine has existed for centuries. All of Israel ,Gaza, the Westbank and Jerlusalem is historical Palestine. The majority of Palestinian people have DNA that can be traced back 10,000 years to that region
@@firebyrd437 if im not wrong this land has had many names throughout history israel judea samaria and palestine after roman conquest 2000 years ago and again under the british after WW1 till 1948 when again named israel...
That land belongs to Israel. If any group is occupying Judaea and Samaria, it is the Palestinian arabs.
The Jews must return to Egypt wher they came from !
That land DOES NOT belong to Israel! You are mistaken!
If I could prove your home used to belong to my distant ancestors and was unjustly taken from them 1800 years, would that entitle me to take it from you?
@@kevinyin2663 Iranian bot fallacies don't work on me.
Israel withdrew from Gaza 20 years before this war. Why do you lie so much?
From an International Law perspective, Israel is the occupation power, largely because it controls the land borders, the sea, the air, the calories that Gazans are allowed to eat per day, vets UN workers, and occasionally mows the lawn. Dr Wilde is correct.
Really? Go back to yr history & this time be MORE diligent to get to the truth.
Israel does not want Gaza, BUT REMEMBER Hamas started this War, Judea and Samaria belongs to Israel as their ancestral homeland for the last 4000yrs
Um...no I'm sorry but you're wrong on all points.
They are not indigenous to the land of Palestine, 90% of world Jews are Ashkenazi descendents of European women which makes them NON JEWS
The Zionists started the war when they came from Europe to steal Palestine from its indigenous population and you know it
This Land was given by God to Jewish people
There is no god !
@@mathieumeulen4241go proclaim that in Muslim controlled states.
You have to go further back than 1917 Sir. Study the Bible history. 1.Land was given to Ishmael's people born from Abraham and Hager. (Arabs)
2. Esau got land in from God in Edom, (Jordan), lived in today's Petra. And Jacob West of Jordan in today's Israel.
3. The Palestinians (named this name by the Persian Empire later on) . They lost Jordan towards the people they hired to do sandstone works for them in today's Petra. They didn't bother to defend themselves, and fled north to Jerusalem and further north to Albania. Hitler used some of them as killers in his wars. When UK eventually had a say over Jerusalem when the Jews got land from UK as well, the UK appointed land to Esau' s people in Gaza. The nearest the Palestinians came to Israel was Jordan.
If you force this "Solution of yours" down on Israel, you will face the biggest war the world have ever seen.
This land was given t Jacob from GOD himself. The whole rest of the Arab land and Iran and Iraq and Siria was given to Ishmael and Esau.
The Arabs, together with all the other people West and North West of Israel today, today MUST ACTUALLY give from THEIR land t the PALESTINIANS.
Therefore God says in Obadiah 1:4-8. Esau violated against their brother Jacob and will be "cut off"
Study your Bible history and LISTEN what God SAID.
GEN 27:29 says clearly if you curse against Jacob you will be cursed. LISTEN.
So you need to go back to the iron age? Using a text with dubious sources, and biased message? ridiculous!!
Double o seven ,the promises
You raised In the bible was
Forfeitted by the ABOMINATION TO THE TEMPLE AMOS 5 (26-27)
ACTS 7 (43)AND THE PUNISHMENT was captivity
By Assyria (721 BC) AND ROME (70 AD) TO BE DISPERSED IN THE KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD.
THATS WHERE TRUE FAITHFUL JEWS ARE, THOSE IN THE ZIONIST STATE ARE A
MINORITY AND CANT EVEN SAY ANYTHING AGAINST THE
EVIL COMMITTED BY THE ZIONIST. THEY USE THE NAME ISRAEL TO MISLEAD
The world, just as they have done with the name DAVID
FOR THE SIX POINTS STAR IN HONOR OF RAMPHEN (ACTS)
SO , PLEASE GET OFF THE OLD TESTAMENT, THE PROMISES WAS EXTENDED
TO THE GENTILES AND THIS
IS THE 21ST CENTURY .
the bible isn't a historical document.
