'Eighty years ago, the Jewish people were totally defenseless against our enemies. Those days are over. Now the Jewish people have a state and we have an army to defend our state.'

Eighty years ago equivalent to 1944. This is confirming they didn't have anywhere to reside then and the US and their allies created space for them at Palestine They have a state now meaning, they didn't have any state as at 1944..land grabbers, you will also meet your Waterloo
When you want to lie and hide the truth, you will only start the history from 1944/1948!
Ask yourself where is land and kingdom that King David, King Solomon, Hezekiah etc. were ruling over
The Jews own the land of Israel, including Judea and Samaria (the so called West Bank)

So because the ICC did not issue arrest warrant against Tony Blair and George Bush for the War in Iraq, the illegal occupation of Palestinian Lands and the current Genocide by Netanyahu on the civilian populace of Gaza should continue? HOW DAFT AND INHUMAN CAN YOU AND ILKS BE?

I don't oppose the butchery in Gaza because I love hamas or hate jews or love islam or hate America.

I dont' oppose the butchery in Gaza because I'm a lefty or a commie or an anarchist or anti-imperialist

I oppose the illegal occupation of Palestinian lands and the butchery of gaza because I'ms not a fvcking PSYCHOPATH! can you say same of YOU?

Opposing Israel's butchery in Gaza is so obvious, so common sense, such a bare-minimum, fundamental-level, Being Human 101 position that if it isn't immediately self-evident to you, your problem is much, much deeper than whatever ideology or bias or prejudice you might happen to have. There's something wrong with you as a person.


if you support Israel's butchery in Gaza, you've got much bigger problems than merely not having the correct ist or ism belief system. You're just all bleeped up inside. Your conditioning has made you into a generally shitty human being. You have deep and immensely consequential flaws in your character, and you won't mature as a person until you heal and transcend them.

Bonds at 20% is looking really juicy. But this looks like a good time to get into some stocks.
What are you buying/investing in now?
If you have huge capital, investing in bonds makes sense.
Fir instance, I intend to use my cash out by buy government securities, (especially treasury bills) and use the upfront interest received to invest in real estates. But this can only make sense with huge sums of money. Otherwise, equities might be a better way to build wealth through capital appreciation of the stocks.

And OANDO won't delist? grin
Oando delisting would be more controversial and would likely trigger stricter conditions and oversight from SEC. Ardova and MRS had been paying dividends consistently. Oando has not in the almost 10 years, hence all eyes would be on them.
I think the SEC would not let them go scot free. Remember the SEC only had to lift their sanctions on Oando after some protracted battle and compromise negotiations. Oando would not be allowed to delist without meeting some reasonable conditions.
Fortunately, SEC has proved itself In rejecting and refusing some companies from delisting in recent times
Oando can still delist eventually, but the price would be higher than the offer price and current market price..

As for me, for someone starting from the scratch. When you start making money, let's say hundreds of thousands ... never let your family or friends know yet, invest some of the funds into what gave you the initial money without having a second thought, and seek for more updates.

Let's hear from some of our elders in the house.
This is full of wisdom, and I can relate to this.
Never be in haste or hurry to show off or let your family/friends know when you start making some money.
Try to invest and secure your future first, before you allow them to know or see the evidence. Keep a low profile.
This would help you to keep focus, avoid distractions and unnecessary expenses and wastes.

Foreign Affairs › Why Israel Is Entitled In Law To The "West Bank'' And Gaza by mikeapollo(op): 12:05pm On May 13, 2024
Why Israel is entitled in law to the "West Bank"
My discussion on Times Radio

MELANIE PHILLIPS
DEC 01, 2023

I took part in Times Radio’s breakfast show to discuss that day’s news with my fellow columnist Hugo Rifkind and presenters Aasmah Mir and Stig Abell. When we started discussing the anti-Israel demonstrations that have been taking place in Britain for weeks, the discussion took a somewhat lively turn. You can listen to it by clicking the arrow below.

A number of people were astonished to hear me state in this discussion that Israel is not in “occupation” of “Palestinian land” and that the Jews alone are entitled in law to this territory.

Their astonishment wasn’t surprising, since these facts are never referred to in mainstream discourse.

Yet Israel is entitled to this land — all of it — many times over in law, as well as according to history, truth and morality.

There has never been any such thing in law as Palestinian land. There never was a state of Palestine. When the Romans conquered the Jewish kingdom of Judea, destroyed the Jewish Temple and drove the Jews of Judea into exile, they renamed it Palaestina in an attempt to erase its Jewish identity. When the last colonial occupier of the land, the Ottoman empire, fell after the First World War, the international community that carved up the Middle East to create a number of new states kept the name Palestine to describe the territory which was now to be recreated as the homeland of the Jewish people.

This was cemented at the 1920 San Remo Conference and given the force of international treaty law by the League of Nations — the precursor to the UN — in the 1922 Mandate for Palestine. This made the UK the mandatory power and gave it the duty to settle the Jews throughout Palestine. After Britain sliced some 70 per cent off this land to create (Trans) Jordan in an act of arbitrary realpolitik, Palestine consisted of what is now Israel, the “West Bank” and Gaza.

To make this quite clear: only the Jews were given the legal right to settle the land in what is now Israel, the “West Bank” and Gaza.

That right has never been abrogated. The 1922 League of Nations Mandate was ratified by the UN Charter 1945, which pledged to uphold the agreements entered into by its predecessor.

The legally binding principles entitling the Jewish people to settle all this land were subsequently further codified in the Vienna Convention of 1969, which confirmed that it included Judea and Samaria (the “West Bank”) and Gaza. In 2013, furthermore, French judges in the Court Of Appeal of Versailles ruled that “Israel is the Legal Occupant of the West Bank”.

When Jordan seized almost all of Judea and Samaria during the 1948-1949 war, renaming these territories “the West Bank” in 1950, that did not extinguish Israel’s claim to that territory. From 1949 to 1967, Jordan held the “West Bank” as a military occupier. When Israel took possession of that territory after the 1967 Six-Day War, this did not, as so many believe, create its claim to it. Israel’s victory freed it instead from illegal Jordanian occupation, and allowed the legal claim of the Jewish people to that territory finally to be acted upon.

At the time that the Mandate was issued to the British, Palestine was only sparsely occupied. While some Jews had always remained in the land — particularly in Safed, and in Jerusalem where they were in the majority from the mid-19th century onwards — the majority of those occupants were Arabs; but they considered themselves part of the Arab people, or sometimes as southern Syrians. As the Jews returned to the land, Arabs attracted by the prospect of growing prosperity poured in from neighbouring states. But they were always referred to, and considered themselves to be, Arabs. Between 1922 and 1948, when people referred to the Palestinians they were referring to the Jews.

So the first reason why the term “occupied Palestinian territories” is a nonsense is that the areas in question were never Palestinian land but were always legally designated for Jews alone to be entitled to settle. The second reason is that the legal definition of “occupation” applies only where a sovereign state has been occupied. The disputed territories of Judea and Samaria were never part of a sovereign state.

Eli Hertz, author of Myths and Facts, has written:

The law relating to “occupation” is contained in the Fourth Geneva Convention. Professor Julius Stone, a leading authority on the Law of Nations, categorically rejected the use of the term “occupied territory” to describe the territories controlled by Israel on the following counts:

(1) Article 49 relates to the invasion of sovereign states and is inapplicable because the West Bank did not and does not belong to any other state.

(2) The drafting history of Article 49 [Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War] - that is, preventing “genocidal objectives|” must be taken into account. Those conditions do not exist in Israel’s case.

(3) Settlement of Jews in the West Bank is voluntary and does not displace local inhabitants. Moreover, Stone asserted: that “no serious dilution (much less extinction) of native populations” [exists]; rather “a dramatic improvement in the economic situation of the [local Palestinian] inhabitants since 1967 [has occurred]”.

The Fourth Geneva Convention states that a country may not “deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies”. But this provision was designed to prevent the forced transfer of people. The Israeli residents of the disputed territories have not been deported nor transferred. They have chosen to live there freely and of their own accord.

Professor Eugene Rostow, past Dean of Yale Law School, a former US Under-Secretary of State for Political Affairs and a key draftee of UN Security Council Resolution 242 which dealt with the disposition of territories that Israel won in the Six-Day War, concluded that the Fourth Geneva Convention was not applicable to Israel’s legal position. He noted:

The opposition to Jewish settlements in the West Bank also relied on a legal argument — that such settlements violated the Fourth Geneva Convention forbidding the occupying power from transferring its own citizens into the occupied territories. How that Convention could apply to Jews who already had a legal right, protected by Article 80 of the United Nations Charter, to live in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip, was never explained.

And here is Howard Grief, author of the definitive book “The Legal Foundation and Borders of Israel Under International Law: A Treatise on Jewish Sovereignty Over the Land of Israel”:

Israel, which inherited the sovereign rights of the Jewish people over Palestine, has the legal right to keep all the lands it liberated in the Six Day War that were either included in the Jewish National Home during the time of the Mandate or formed integral parts of the Land of Israel that were illegally detached from the Jewish National Home when the boundaries of Palestine were fixed in 1920 and 1923. For the same reason, Israel cannot be accused by anyone of “occupying” lands under international law that were clearly part of the Jewish National Home or the Land of Israel.

Thus the whole debate today that centres on the question of whether Israel must return “occupied territories” to their alleged Arab owners in order to obtain peace is one of the greatest falsehoods of international law and diplomacy.

An additional argument has been advanced by the international law professor Eugene Kontorovich. He has written:

Moreover one cannot occupy one’s own territory. If Ukraine retakes Crimea from Russia, it will not be an occupation just because it had long been administered by Moscow. As professor Avi Bell and I have demonstrated at great length, under general rules of international law applicable around the world Israel would have a sovereign claim to the West Bank from 1948 (not so for the Golan Heights). That is because newly created states inherit the borders of the prior administrative units in the territory — in this case, Mandatory Palestine.

As for the claim that the Israeli “settlements” in these territories are illegal, Kontorovich wrote:

Discussions of illegal settlements, and Art. 49(6) of the Fourth Geneva Convention, invariably arise only in the context of Israel alone. Indeed, the term “illegal settlements” has become a way of discussing Jewish communities in places the international community thinks they should not be. Prior to 1967, the rule now directed against Israel had never been applied anywhere. Despite the ongoing US occupation of West Berlin, no one ever suggested Americans must be barred from moving there, or that the occupation required doing something impossible — halting natural patterns of migration and preserving demography in amber for decades…

When we look for the alleged rule applied elsewhere, we find — nothing. The United Nations has referred to Art. 49(6) hundreds of times in relation to Israel, but no UN body has ever accused any other country of violating it.

This is not because of a shortage of cases in which one might think it would apply. From Morocco in Western Sahara to Indonesia in East Timor, from Turkish-occupied northern Iraq to formerly Vietnamese-occupied Cambodia, prolonged occupations of territory have almost always seen migration from the territory of the occupying power. The demographic impact typically dwarfs that of Jewish settlers in the West Bank, as in Western Sahara or Northern Cyprus, where settlers constitute a majority of the population. As many Russians have moved to Crimea in the past decade as Jews to Judea in the past half-century. Unlike the case of Judea and Samaria, all these cases (except Western Sahara) involve the unambiguous occupation of the territory of a preexisting state. Yet even in those situations where the ICC has jurisdiction, it has specifically declined to find that such movement constitutes a war crime.

Then there’s the legal justification for Israel’s presence in these territories through the law of self-defence. UN Resolution 242, which was adopted unanimously by the General Assembly on November 22, 1967, said that Israel had a right to hold onto territories that it required if it was to have, as the key phrase in the resolution put it, “secure [i.e. defensible] and recognised boundaries”. In other words, Israel is entitled to retain territory seized in a war of self-defence while the people there remain belligerent. Which they most certainly do.

Eli Hertz author of Myths and Facts, wrote here:

International law makes it clear: all of Israel’s wars with its Arab neighbours were in self-defence. Professor Judge Schwebel wrote in What Weight to Conquest:

“(a) a state [Israel] acting in lawful exercise of its right of self-defence may seize and occupy foreign territory as long as such seizure and occupation are necessary to its self-defence;

“(b) as a condition of its withdrawal from such territory, that State may require the institution of security measures reasonably designed to ensure that that territory shall not again be used to mount a threat or use of force against it of such a nature as to justify exercise of self-defence;

“(c) Where the prior holder of territory had seized that territory unlawfully, the state which subsequently takes that territory in the lawful exercise of self-defence has, against that prior holder, better title.

“As between Israel, acting defensively in 1948 and 1967, on the one hand, and her Arab neighbours, acting aggressively, in 1948 and 1967, on the other, Israel has the better title in the territory of what was Palestine, including the whole of Jerusalem, than do Jordan and Egypt.”

Professor Schwebel explains that the principle of “acquisition of territory by war is inadmissible” must be read together with other principles:

“Namely, that no legal right shall spring from a wrong, and the Charter principle that the Members of the United Nations shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State.”

Simply stated: Arab illegal aggression against the territorial integrity and political independence of Israel cannot and should not be rewarded. Professor Julius Stone, a leading authority on the Law of Nations, stated:

“Territorial Rights under International Law. ... By their [Arab countries] armed attacks against the State of Israel in 1948, 1967, and 1973, and by various acts of belligerency throughout this period, these Arab states flouted their basic obligations as United Nations members to refrain from threat or use of force against Israel’s territorial integrity and political independence. These acts were in flagrant violation inter alia of Article 2(4) and paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of the same article.”

Thus, under international law Israel acted lawfully by exercising its right to self-defence when it redeemed and legally reoccupied Judea and Samaria, known also as the West Bank.

People claim that, because various bodies such as the International Court of Justice or the International Criminal Court have stated that Israel is in illegal occupation, it must be so. But just because such bodies assert such a thing doesn’t make it true. Such bodies do not make international law. That inheres in international treaties and agreements. And those don’t support the tendentious claims made by such bodies, which owe nothing to legal authority and everything to their profound and enduring institutional hatred of the State of Israel.

Israel is not in “illegal occupation of the Palestinian territories”. Every part of that phrase, apart from “of” and “the”, is legally illiterate. The Jews are the only people entitled in law to those territories. Get over it.

I am glad you are coming back to humane sensibilities.

Israelis took over a land that never belonged to them and went on “sabbatical “ leave for thousands of years, which is not the fault of the Palestinians, but now want to forcefully eject palestinian people born on the same land whose ancestors had occupied ,for thousands of years?

And you expect no resistance and call them terrorists?

Who are the real terrorists?

Now let’s come home.

Are you aware that the so called Lagos indigenes of today are not the ancestral owners of Lagos?

Would you expect the current “indigenes” to be wiped out when the ancestral owners rise up?

Now Nigeria was created via almagamation of various ethnic groups and lands, but the state of Israel was created via forceful terrorist occupation of lands already inhabited by various peoples including Palestinians
Thank God you agree that the Israelis owned the land, before the so called Palestinians came to the land!
And you call what happened to the Israelis ''sabbatical''? Really?
For your information,. the Israelis were defeated, conquered and driven from their land by the Romans.
During the Ottoman empire era their land was dominated by the Arabs, and the Israelis living at home were too few a minority to do anything about their land. That is how come you find many Arabs/Muslims living in Israel till today.
But they are fortunate that their history is well documented and they are able to get their land back. Now do you want the Israelis to back down for those Arabs/Palestinians that are still living in the land of Israel and waging war to wipe off Israel from the surface of the earth?

You are just being wicked and mischievous.

You keep on hammering on what I never implied.

Did I tell you Palestinians are the Jebusites?

Is that why someone born as a Palestinian on the same land should be forcefully sent away or eliminated because of a biblical story of over 3000yrs ago whereas the oldest Palestinian living cannot be older than 150yrs.

And you expect no resistance and call them terrorists?

Whereas the same land originally and ancestral belongs to the Jebusites and not Israelis.
If the Palestinians are not the Jebusites, then it makes no sense for you to mention the Jebusites in this discussion. We should mention only the relevant parties (tribes) that are contending for the land right now.
The Israelis took over the land from the Jebusites who they defeated and conquered! Everyone knows that.
So how did the same land become the property of some people calling themselves ''Palestinians'' today? Can you tell me?

The original ancestral owners of the land are the Jebusites not the current European Israeli Jews.
You can call the Israelis, Europeans, Africans, Asians or whatever you want! They know themselves, their history and ancestry!
The fact is, the land of Israel existed long before 1948.
The Israelis own the land, including Judea and Samaria which was described by the British as West Bank (of River Jordan).
Palestine was originally a name used by the Romans to describe a region that comprises of Syria. Jordan, Israel and Lebanon! Some Arabs cannot arrogate that name to themselves and now use it to distort history and deceive people.
The so called Palestinians are not the Jebusites, and cannot claim ownership of the land above Israel!

Now I can conclude on your mischief.


Did I refer to Jebusites as Palestinians?


Was there any country called Israel before 1948?

What is the relevance of the existence or not of Palestinians in the bible story, to the fact that
in 1948,the people now called Palestinians were forcefully removed from the land of their birth, thousands of then killed via Jewish terrorism?

And you do not expect any form of resistance which many idiots now call terrorism?
Only those who want to avoid the truth would refer to and start their history from 1948 and ignore everything before then!
Was the world formed only in 1948?
There has always been the Land of Israel, before the Romans came! You cannot ignore history before 1948!
Go read your history books very well, including the Bible and Quran
The fact that there was no country called Nigeria before 1960 does not mean that the component towns, cities and tribes e.g. Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa did not exist on their respective lands long before 1960!
The issue is the existence of the land, not when the country was formed as a state!

The land of Egypt had existed long before it was formed as a modern state.
The land of Syria had existed long before it was formed as a modern state
The land of Lebanon had existed long before it was formed as a modern state.
The land of Israel had existed long before it was formed as a modern state....you cannot just start all the history of Israel from 1948...but that is what people like you who are running away from the truth are doing!

Trash.

The ancestral owners of the disputed territories are the Jebusites not Israelis.

How does this even sound to you? So you want to force the people you met on a land ,after thousands of years,to accept the creation of state of Israel when they were born on the same land as Palestinians ?

Are you people so dumb?

The oldest person in the occupied territories can not be more 150yrs and all he knows is that he was born a Palestinian on a Palestinian territory,but you want him to believe some bogus stories of 3000yrs ago?
Useless trash!

Stop making up stories! The Palestinians are NOT Jebusites. And there is no tribe called ''Palestinians'' anywhere!
''Palestine'' was a name/term used by the Romans to describe the geographical area comprising Syria, Jordan, Israel and Lebanon.
''Palestine'' is not the name of any specific country or tribe.
The people living in West Bank are the ones calling themselves Palestinians. But West Bank's original name is Judea and Samaria, which Israel re-took from Jordan during the 1967 war!
If the West Bank was part of Jordan and was not a separate state, how can it become a separate state now under Israel? Jordan itself has signed a peace pact with Israel and accepts that Judea and Samaria (so called West Bank) originally belonged to Israel!

What my christians don't know is that there are more moslems than Christians in Israel.

This war isn't about Christianity and Islam. It's war about land. Ancestral lands for that matter. Generations will come and go but there will be no winners.

Read your Bible and see how Israel has gone into slavery and come back to claim the land. So they're winning today doesn't mean they will win forever. Less than a century ago, Hitler made many of them deny being Jewish but today they have the upper hand.

What tomorrow will look like is something we can not predict for now but I know it's winner takes it all situation
Nobody is saying this is a war between Christians and Muslims.
But the truth is, most of the historical facts that prove that Israel is the real owner of the land are contained in historical accounts, archaeological evidence as well as the Bible, which some people are not ready to accept.
The story of Israel is in the Bible, but some people do not want to accept the Bible because of religious sentiments! That is the real issue! And the Bible is the most authentic and oldest source of history of Israel!

The Arab Israelis are descendants of Arabs who were living in the land of Israel and chose to take Israeli citizenship when the State of Israel was formed because they understand and accept that the land originally belongs to Israel.
Those calling themselves ''Palestinians'' today are the other Arabs who were living in the land of Israel but chose not to recognize the State of Israel when it was formed but decided to destroy and obliterate it from the surface of the earth. They even rejected the 2 state solution when it was originally proposed. It was after Israel defeated them in the 1967 war and regained control of Judea and Samaria (now referred to as West Bank) that they started whining about ''let us go back to 1967 borders'' and 2 state solution.

To think that some people here are cheering up the killing of innocent women and children, pray tomorrow they don't label your country a terrorist country, if they do and arrive with their tanks and guns, nobody will ask if you're Christian or Moslem, the only Language will be finish every thing breathing within area of target.
Israel has always been sending alerts and messages via phone text messages, fliers, etc to the civilians in Gaza to move from areas of possible military action, all in order to minimize civilians casualty. If not, the casualties would have been much higher than it is, even though it is unfortunate for civilians to be killed.
But blame Hamas for causing this war and for using civilian infrastructure for their operations e.g. schools, homes, hospitals. Ask yourself, if you have ever seen Hamas military barracks or cantonment before. They hide among civilians to carry out their atrocities, that is what is putting the civilians in more troubles.

Stay away from sex enhancers.
Honey, Onions, Ginger and Garlic should be enough to do the magic.
Coconut, Tiger nuts, Dates and Ginger is also a goof combo.
All natural, no side effects.
