Want to censor any discussion that's contrary to your views and opinions? How Facist!! That a pretty rich coming from you. D. Occupation, resilience and civil society 1693. The accounts of more severe violence during the recent military operations did not obscure the fact that the concept of “normalcy” in the Gaza Strip has long been redefined due to the protracted situation of abuse and lack of protection deriving from the decades-long occupation. 1694. As the Mission focussed on investigating and analyzing the specific matters within its mandate, Israel’s continuing occupation of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank emerged as the fundamental factor underlying violations of international humanitarian and human rights law against the protected population and undermining prospects for development and peace. Israel’s failure to acknowledge and exercise its responsibilities as the Occupying Power further exacerbated the effects of occupation on the Palestinian people, and continue to do so. Furthermore, the harsh and unlawful practices of occupation, far from quelling resistance, breed it, including its violent manifestations. The Mission is of the view that ending occupation is a prerequisite for the return of a dignified life for Palestinians, as well as development and a peaceful solution to the conflict. www2.ohchr.org Page 527 What do you think will happen when this document gets approved by your beloved UNSC? If we allow this document to go through, we admit that Israel is occupying not only the West Bank but also Gaza. I do not know, Judge Richard Goldstone seems to be a a self-hating Jew at a grand scale. But, wait the man has a conscience and will not allow Israel to dirty the Jews' name for its own gains. What a dilemma?

How can we criticize Iran, when our best and only friend in the world is doing worse things than Iran. 1745. In relation to alleged violations within Israel proper, the Mission concludes that although there does not appear to be a policy in this respect, there were occasions when reportedly the authorities placed obstacles in the way of protesters seeking to exercise their right to peaceful assembly and freedom of speech to criticize Israel’s military actions in the Gaza Strip. These rights are protected by the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Instances of physical violence against protesters and other humiliations, not rising to the level of physical violence, of the protesters by the police violated Israel’s obligations under Article 10 of the ICCPR. The Mission is also concerned about activists being compelled to attend interviews with the General security Services (Shabak) which reportedly creates an atmosphere intolerant of dissent within Israel. Hostile retaliatory actions against civil society organisations by the Government of Israel for criticisms of the Israeli authorities and for exposing alleged violations of IHRL and IHL during the military operations are inconsistent with the United Nations Declaration on the Right and Responsibility of Individuals, Groups and Organs of Society to Promote and Protect Universally Recognized Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms www2.ohchr.org Page 540

Considering how lucid Nadine is I think the member formerly known as Tom Jones paid you huge compliment. Of course nobody can deny you are also quite lucid.
