Israel has no right to defend itself against Hamas: Russia
National Post [Canada] ^ | Nov. 2, 2023 | Jewish News Syndicate

Israel does not have the right to defend itself, Russia’s representative to the United Nations said on Wednesday.

The United States and its allies are hypocritical for talking “about Israel’s alleged right for self-defense, which, as an occupying state, it does not have, as was confirmed by the [U.N.’s] International Court [of Justice] consultative ruling in 2004,” Ambassador Vasily Nebenzya told a U.N. General Assembly special session on the Israel-Hamas war.

The ICJ’s 2004 advisory opinion stated that Israel could not invoke an inherent right to self-defense under Article 51 of the U.N. Charter against any threat coming from an “occupied” territory that Israel controls.

However, Israel ceded control of the Gaza Strip in 2005, and it is governed by the Hamas terrorist organization, which has sworn to destroy Israel.

Last week, Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored U.N. Security Council resolution condemning Hamas and calling for “humanitarian pauses” in the fighting between Israel and the Palestinian terrorist group in Gaza.

A Russian resolution was also rejected that denounced Hamas but also condemned “indiscriminate attacks” on civilians in Gaza and called for an immediate “humanitarian ceasefire.”

do you realize how comically paranoid that sounds?

That's probably why I like it so much that I gave it a thumbs-up.

“National Post [Canada]”

Canadian press is as bad as the British press. Russia is not so stupid they would say “ Israel has no right to defend itself against Hamas”. Russia may side with Hamas but they are not going to something that dumb.

Apparently the Canuck Nazis have noticed that the Uke Nazis are still losing, and they are upset.

Me, I have noticed that the Pali Terrorists are getting away with Antisemitic Riots and Blockades all over the US, Canada, Europe, and the West, and they are supported in the UN, EU and all Western Mainstream media.

Where is W when we need to know if Islam is a religion of Peace?


Who needs W now. Just saw millions of college kids in the street parroting the same thing.

If their tolerance can accept beheading children and putting others in an oven and slaughtering innocent people, where exactly is their tolerance of violence here at home in everyday life and how far away does the nearest college nutcase who thinks Hamas is good live from you or me?

I would guess for me 1,500 feet and I live in a relatively conservative area of the municipality.

Israel is being baited - trapped by the dnc Soviet gay commies

do you realize how comically paranoid that sounds?

That actually well describes the Prog Socialist Democrat Left's Antisemitic and Anti Israel activities in Congress, American Big Cities Streets and in the MSM Press.

Do you realize how ignorant you sound?

Calling Israel an ‘occupying state’ is pretty rich coming from the country that’s invading Ukraine.

Likewise when the Turks do it, when they still occupy Northern Cyprus.

Canaschmuck Communist thinks he gets a say in American foreign policy, and it always involves starting WW3 and funneling trillions of taxpayer dollars to globalist regimes.

Is there a Middle East terror group Israel hasn't secretly supported?
