1. No — Israel does not have the right to “defend itself” while it is the occupying power. Under international law, an occupying military force cannot claim “self-defense” against the very population it occupies. This is the position of: UN General Assembly International Court of Justice (ICJ) International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) Dozens of UN Special Rapporteurs To call colonized, occupied people “terrorists” for resisting occupation is simply the modern language of empire. The type of language used by the "Human Animals" among us. Anyone who claim the European Jews who occupied Palestine under British Mandate of Palestine are exactly what Israel & Jews represent. The most Evil among humanity. The "Human Animals" that are a threat to humanity. 2. When Israel was created through UNGA Resolution 181 (1947), the UN partitioned the land into two states: A Jewish state on 55% of Mandatory Palestine. *UN looted the Arab lands for European Jews. The biggest "WRONG" in human history. An Arab state on 45%. . Everything beyond that 1947 designation — including: West Bank East Jerusalem Gaza’s borders The Golan Heights Lebanese territory (Shebaa Farms, Kfar Shuba hills) is occupied territory under international law, and Israel has no legal sovereignty there. So Israel has no right to “exist” or “defend itself” inside someone else’s land. 3. Israel does not have a blank cheque to “defend itself” while occupying land that does not belong to it. Its legal right (in the sense that UN owned Palestine Lands) was limited to the 1947 UN-designated territory—not to Lebanon, not to Gaza, not to the West Bank, and not to Syrian land. IT IS A FACT THAT Palestine existed long before Judaism, before the Covenant with Abraham AS, and long before the first Jew was born or Jew RELATED tribes emerged. **Note. Only 2 Tribes out of 12 are termed Jews. Balance 10 Tribes were not. Jews hunted and killed most of them. And the propaganda that “Jews = Bani Israel = modern Israel” is a historical distortion: A CONCOCTION, A POISONOUS COCKTAIL OF LIES. Bani Israel were the descendants of Jacob AS; Jews and today's Judaism (THE CURSE ON HUMANITY) appeared centuries later; and the modern State of EUROPEAN JEW Israel is neither of them. Those who support Israel today simply stand with a colonial project that has used war, displacement, and genocide before and after its creation — nothing more.

UNITED NATIONS, United States: (AFP) - UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon warned Friday that the use of cluster bombs in Yemen by the Saudi-led coalition may amount to war crimes. Ban said he had received "troubling reports" of cluster bomb attacks on January 6 on the rebel-held capital Sanaa. "The use of cluster munitions in populated areas may amount to a war crime due to their indiscriminate nature," the UN chief said in a statement. Cluster bombs are banned under a 2008 international convention, although Saudi Arabia and the United States are not signatories. The office of the UN high commissioner for human rights said Tuesday that its staff in Yemen had found remnants of 29 cluster bombs during a field visit in Haradh district in the northwest. The warning over possible war crimes was a clear sign of mounting frustration at the UN with Saudi Arabia s 10-month military campaign in Yemen. It came in response to the decision by Yemen s Saudi-backed government to expel the leading UN rights official, George Abu al-Zulof. Ban is urging the Yemeni government to reverse its decision to expel Zulof, who was declared persona non grata for an alleged lack of impartiality in his reporting. The UN chief said he was "deeply concerned about the intensification of coalition airstrikes and ground fighting and shelling in Yemen, despite repeated calls for a renewed cessation of hostilities." He is "particularly concerned about reports of intense airstrikes in residential areas and on civilian buildings in Sanaa, including the Chamber of Commerce, a wedding hall and a centre for the blind," said the statement. UN envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed was in Riyadh on Friday for talks on renewing a ceasefire in Yemen, which faces the threat of famine amid the dire humanitarian crisis. Yemen descended into chaos when the coalition began airstrikes in March to push back Iran-backed Huthi rebels who had seized Sanaa. More than 5,800 people have been killed and 27,000 wounded since then, according to UN figures. Yemen s government sat down with the rebels and their allies in Switzerland last month for six days of talks that ended with no major breakthrough. The UN envoy has called for a new round of talks on January 14 but the sides have yet to confirm that they will attend. http://dunyanews.tv/en/World/316821-UN-warns-cluster-bomb-use-in-Yemen-may-amount-to-w
