'War crime': UN condemns deportation of terrorist who plotted to murder Rabbi Yosef
Arutz Sheva ^ | 20/12/22 | Ido Ben Porat

The UN Human Rights Office on Monday condemned Israel’s deportation to France of Salah Hamouri, the terrorist who plotted to assassinate the late Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, calling the act a “war crime”.

.....

Hamouri is a French citizen and permanent resident of Israel, born in 1985. He has been active for many years in the ranks of the Palestinian Arab terrorist organization the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

In a statement, UN Human Rights spokesperson Jeremy Laurence condemned the deportation of Hamouri, whom he described as a “Palestinian-French human rights defender”, adding that “we are deeply concerned by the chilling message this sends to those working on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory.”

“The Israeli authorities revoked Hamouri's residency in occupied East Jerusalem on the basis of ‘breach of allegiance to the State of Israel’. Hamouri, a lawyer with Palestinian human rights organization Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association, was arrested by Israeli Security Forces in March and placed under administrative detention without any charge or trial,” added Laurence.

“International humanitarian law prohibits the deportation of protected persons from occupied territory, and explicitly forbids compelling such persons to swear allegiance to the occupying power. Deporting a protected person from occupied territory is a grave breach of the Fourth Geneva Convention, constituting a war crime,” he continued.

“Hamouri’s deportation highlights the vulnerable situation of Palestinians living in East Jerusalem...blahblahblahblah...” concluded Laurence.

Sunday’s deportation marked the end of a process in which, due to Hamouri's involvement in terrorist activities, his residency was revoked.

The removal was carried out by representatives of the Population and Immigration Authority who will accompany him to France, where his wife and children are waiting for him.

Well, Israel has had plenty of warnings, so now the U.N. has actually done it: they wrote a letter. A very harsh letter.

UN is not a joke, it's a very malicious entity. Should nuke it from space when it's in session, chock full of vicious antisemites and America haters, with just the U.S. and ally ambassadors "out sick" that day. Just to be sure.

The PFLP is a Moscow-Cuba trained, possibly armed avowed MARXIST international terrorist organization. Read any then legitimate newspaper or magazine from the late 60s/70s for the truth about them.
