One of the main foundations of the Palestinian narrative states that: "according to international law, Israel is occupying Palestinian land". What most people don't know is that the international law states, in fact, the exact opposite. I'll explain. In the picture below, you can see article 80 in the UN charter, signed by the UN in 1945 during the San Francisco convention. As stated, its purpose was to ensure the rights given by trusteeship agreements approved by the UN, one of them being the British Mandate which officially began in 1920 and was designated to the establishment of a "national home" for the Jewish people on the area shown in the map below, as previously declared in the Balfour Declaration in 1918. Now you may say: "but what about the UN general assembly Resolution 181 (the partition plan)?". The answer here is pretty simple: first of all, the general committee has no official power to enforce their decisions, which are mostly symbolic. Second, the plan was never set in motion, as the Arab leadership refused to accept it and the war between the Jewish population and the Arab one, broke down. Regarding the UN security council, Article 24(2) states: "the Security Council shall act in accordance with the Purposes and Principles of the United Nations". Which means it also cannot overrule article 80 in the UN charter. There is also an argument I heard, about the British Mandate being a class A mandate. Class A mandates, were territories formerly controlled by the Ottoman Empire that were deemed to "... have reached a stage of development where their existence as independent nations can be provisionally recognized subject to the rendering of administrative advice and assistance by a Mandatory until such time as they are able to stand alone. The wishes of these communities must be a principal consideration in the selection of the Mandatory". There is one major problem with this argument: the Muslim Arabs NEVER had any national ambitions back then, nor wanted an independent state until after 1948. Haj Amin Al-Husseini, probably the most prominent Muslim leader during the British Mandate and the Mufti of Jerusalem at that time, who dedicated his life to combat Zionism and purge the Jewish population in the area, even reaching Adolf Hitler at some point to help him fulfill those plans, never wanted an establishment of an independent Muslim state. While launching massacres against the Jewish population (the great Arab revolt, 1929 Arab riots and more) and trying to convince Arabs not to sell lands to Jews, he justified it only using religious Islamic motives and blood libels against the Jews. Their only mission was to erase Zionism, so there was never an appeal by him, nor the Arab League and not any other Muslim leadership of that time to the international community, for the establishment of a Muslim state called "Palestine". So when I define the Palestinians as: "a political movement pretending to be a nation, only to combat Zionism", I talk about this exactly. This text sums up the main things you should know about the non-existent Israeli occupation, which many people unfortunately don't. So it was very important to me to write about it, especially in these difficult times, and I'd appreciate your support in spreading this message, a lot.

Homeless boy, 15, charged with stabbing two men, killing one, is migrant from Guatemala: NYPD The 15-year-old boy charged with stabbing two men — one of them fatally — in a crime-ridden Lower East Side park is a “new arrival” from Guatemala who lashed out during an argument in a homeless encampment, police officials said Tuesday. The teenage murder suspect, who has not been publicly identified because he is a minor, got to the US within the past year alone, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny told reporters, adding that cops were trying to track down the youngster’s family. The boy, who is homeless, was arrested Saturday and faces counts of murder and attempted murder in connection with the deadly stabbing at Sara D. Roosevelt Park at Hester and Chrystie Streets last week. Witnesses told police the teen and the victims — two homeless men identified as Alonzo Pasquale, 25, and Alonzo Lucas, 29 — were at the encampment in the park, where some people were playing cards or “hanging out,” at around 11 p.m. on Nov. 16, according to Kenny. Kenny noted that the area has been rife with crime lately. “That park this year, including this homicide, has had four robberies, 11 felony assaults and 26 misdemeanor assaults,” Kenny said, adding that a “homeless community” has been known to stay in the green space. “Some of them are recent arrivals, possibly migrants,” he said.

The NYC-DSA is planning to hold a rally tomorrow, glorifying the terrorism of Hamas as “resistance.” Never mind the hundreds of Israeli civilians and children who have been murdered, wounded, abducted, and terrorized. Their lives mean nothing to the DSA. Nothing. The NYC-DSA is revealing itself for what it truly is: an antisemitic stain on the soul of America’s largest city. There is a special place in hell for those who glorify the cold-blooded murder of civilians and children.
