International law prohibits the Israeli occupying belligerent from imposing laws unrelated to the security of the occupying force or the necessities of maintaining public order and civil life in the occupied territory. Laws drafted by the Israeli occupying belligerent must be for the benefit of the occupied territory, not for the benefit of the occupying power itself. The core principle is that the Israeli occupying belligerent is a temporary administrator, not a sovereign. 

• When acts and or activities by the Israeli annexing belligerent targeting the colonized people are systematic, and or are on a large scale, we consider these acts and activities as shown in the 'breadcrumbs'. This does not include violations, as they refer to resorting to breaches of rules and international law.
