It’s insane to me that anybody believes the amount of BS lies that come from Palestine media. Same people that hid baby formula so they could blame Israel for starting babies.

You do realize that the settlements are illegal under international law

Why should that make any difference when it comes to Israel enforcing their laws on settlements they recognize? The settlements are illegal according to international law so you expect Israel to let people break into the people’s homes and property? Be fr

Under international law the kids did nothing wrong & only Israel is breaking any laws but of course laws don’t apply to Israel they’re just above everyone else I guess 🙃

Israel is applying their own laws to land recognized under their legal authority by the Oslo accords. Theft is still illegal. The United States is occupying Native American land, should the government let me rob your house?

Are you genuinely trying to say Israel currently building illegal settlements in the West Bank is okay & the equivalent to what America?

It has nothing to do with whether building the settlements are okay or not. This settlement is there, is under Israeli military authority under the Oslo accords, and is their job to enforce Israeli law. International law means jack shit here

Got it so what you’re sayin Israel can do whatever it wants wherever because it’s Israel & the Palestinians better listen because Israel does what it wants

And right & wrong or morality is irrelevant because Israel decides the meaning of those words & everyone else just needs to listen to Israel

No, Israel is required by the Oslo Accords to enforce the law in area C of the West Bank and enforce security in Area B. The settlement is in Area A. So no, not “whatever they want,” just quite literally Israeli law. Which they are required to do. Plus Israel disputes that the settlements in area A are even illegal. So even ignoring Oslo: Israel is expected to uphold and enforce Israeli law in territory they recognize as theirs

So Israel is required to keep building the settlements & kicking Palestinians out of their homes by law & the international community that says Israel’s actions are against international law are just antisemitic haters because Israel by law is required to keep harming & taking the homes of Palestinians in the West Bank.

Plus Israel says it’s actually not illegal so yeah it’s just okay then because Israel themselves said they’re doing nothing wrong & it’s actually the international community that’s wrong

You should try reading what I say and then maybe you’ll understand what I’m saying. You’re just dumping your opinions on me that I just don’t care about tbh, it’s not relevant to what you posted about nor what I’m saying. The article you posted isn’t about building settlements. It’s about detaining kids for stealing which you had a problem with.

It’s about detaining kids in the West Bank which is under international law is illegal occupied by Israel but according to you international law is irrelevant because Israel said so

Not because Israel said so, but because of the Oslo Accords that were agreed upon by Israel and the PLO. There is no International Governing body present and policing the West Bank. It’s entirely the PA’s job to enforce the law in area A, a joint effort in B, and entirely Israel’s responsibility in area C. This took place in area C

The PLO is a puppet of Israel & Israel is still illegally occupying the West Bank which is why the settlements are still considered illegal under international law. I understand that Zionist & Israel claim they legally have the right to kick Palestinians out of their homes & build more settlements but under international law they don’t

I will say it’s been a long time since I’ve heard a zionst argue in favor of the settlements. Are you a settler yourself or are you maybes eyeing a Palestinians home to take yourself one day?

It’s like talking to a wall, I swear. I never advocated for or against settlements here, you’re projecting your own opinions at me. I explained why children stealing vegetables were detained by the police. That’s literally it

Know I get what you’re saying under Israeli law & the failed Oslo accords or depending on how you look at it you could argue that the Oslo accords are working as intended the kids are in the wrong which ignores international law the kids are in the wrong. So it’s a matter of whether you believe Israeli law should supersede international law & how you view the settlements in the West Bank

Although under Israeli law I say that Havat Maon is technically an illegal outpost not that it matters because as I said earlier Israel does what it wants even though you denied it & tried to act like they follow their own laws which are already out of compliance with international law
