The whole should be mandatory reading for all employees of the Jewish Community, especially those PAID to deal with the media!

Occupation? No, legal entitlement

Further to my post below, I am grateful to Eli Hertz, Chairman of CAMERA (Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America) , for sending me an excellent account he has written of the legitimacy of the enduring

Jewish legal right to settle anywhere in western Palestine, a 10,000-square-mile area between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, an entitlement unaltered in international law and valid to this day.

You can read the entire 36-page document here.

It quotes the last legally binding documents regarding the status of what is commonly called ‘the West Bank and Gaza.’ It shows that the British Mandate

granted Jews the irrevocable right to settle in the area of Palestine, anywhere between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, a right unaltered in international law and valid to this day. Jewish settlements in Judea, Samaria (i.e., the West Bank), Gaza and the whole of Jerusalem are legal.

In my view, this document should be distributed to all media outlets and parliamentarians in time for the 40th anniversary of the Six Day War in two weeks’ time, when in Britain at least this will be used by the enemies of Israel as an excuse for a tsunami of lies. The facts as laid out here knock the ground clean from under their feet.
