Article 51 of the UN Charter, which gives a
nation the right to self-defense
"The attack," Reagan wrote in his memoirs,"
was not intended to kill Gaddafi; that would have violated our prohibition
against assassination. The object was to let him know that we weren't going to
accept his terrorism anymore, and that if he did it again he could expect to
hear from us again." He
cited article 51 of the UN Charter, which gives a nation the right to
self-defense. In a television address to the nation Reagan
said, "When our citizens are attacked or abused anywhere in the world, on
the direct orders of hostile regimes, we will respond so long as I'm in this
office."
The self-defense, consent,[2]
and Security Council authorization pursuant to Article 42 of the UN Charter.[3]
The right to self defense is an inherent concept in
law “and is fundamental to the system of states.”[4]
It is recognized and protected by Article 51 of the UN Charter:
Article 51
Article 51
Nothing in the present Charter shall impair
the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense if an armed attack
occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has
taken measures necessary to maintain international peace and security...

NO JEW HAS THE RIGHT TO GIVE UP
ReplyDelete(Eretz Yisrael) THE LAND OF ISRAEL
By David Ben Gurion
“No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish People in Israel. No Jew has the authority to do so. No Jewish body has the authority to do so. Not even the entire Jewish People alive today has the right to yield any part of Israel.
It is the right of the Jewish People over the generations, a right that under no conditions can be cancelled. Even if Jews during a specific period proclaim they are relinquishing this right, they have neither the power nor the authority to deny it to future generations. No concession of this type is binding or obligates the Jewish People.
Our right to the country – the entire country – exists as an eternal right, and we shall not yield this historic right until its full and complete redemption is realized.”
This quotation of David Ben Gurion made at the Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland in 1937, more than 65 years ago. At the Freeman Center, we quote this profound statement often.

The Arabs occupy a lot of other peoples since the 7th century. The nature of their rule never changes: ethnic and religious cleansing. It’s still going on under your eyes.
ReplyDeleteIn 1925 the Chaldeans (non Arabs, non Muslims) were a majority in Iraq (British census); less than 1% today. Same for the Copts in Egypt, the Tamazight in Morocco, the Kabyles in Algeria. The black peoples of Africa (Sudan, Mauritania, Zanzibar etc) are enslaved by the Arab occupiers. WHAT DO WE DO FOR ALL THESE PEOPLES? The Jews were, by millions, indigenous to the region 2,000 years before the Arab occupation; today the “Arab World” is completely judenrein.
The Arab occupation is NOT the result of any external aggression. It is a murderous invasion they proudly call “the Arab conquest”. The worst predators this planet has ever seen …. And besides, they turned the countries they occupied into a huge cesspool.
