GLOSM/PARES does not recognize the territory, colonized by the Israeli entity since May 1948, as a state or country. This includes rejecting the entire city of Jerusalem as the capital of the entity. One cannot claim a land on religionized ideological grounds, while no scientific evidence confirms the claim. In particular, when the claim was first made by people from another continent.

The Israelis are still a 'de jure annexing,' not occupying, belligerent of the West Bank and East Jerusalem since the end of the 6-day war in June 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war against the Palestinians issued that year.

The UN has passed several resolutions concerning Al-Aqsa Mosque, notably UNSC Resolution 271 (1969) after the 1969 arson, calling on Israel to respect international law in occupied Jerusalem, and later resolutions emphasizing the need to preserve the historical status quo, protect holy sites, and ensure free access, often condemning Israeli actions that threaten peace and security, like excavations or restrictions. These resolutions consistently hold Israel responsible as the occupying power for maintaining the sanctity and accessibility of Al-Aqsa and other holy sites, calling for adherence to the Geneva Conventions and UN principles.

The Israelis have systematically violated these UN resolutions, which are de facto acts of delegitimizing the United Nations, while demanding that everyone recognize the legitimacy of the existence of the colonized territory as that of the Israelis.

The Israelis have been a war belligerent since 1967, when the then-prime minister Levi Eshkol issued a declaration of war, which has never been lifted. The Israeli occupying belligerent annexed East Jerusalem in 1980 through the "Jerusalem Law," which declared the city as its capital.  The UN Security Council responded with Resolution 478, which declared the law "null and void" and called upon member states to withdraw their embassies from the city. The international consensus remains that the acquisition of territory by force is inadmissible under international law. The occupation of East Jerusalem and the expansion of settlements are violations of international law.

The Israeli leadership, including members of its organization structure and members of affiliating and or assisting entities, are a war belligerent in Gaza, and 'occupying' belligerent in the West Bank since 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war announced by the then-prime minister Levy Eshkol. Therefore, the following:

There are three ways of taking possession of land and properties on the land while being a belligerent:

• De jure annexation is the formal, legal extension of a state's sovereignty over a territory through a formal declaration and act of law.
• De facto annexation occurs through gradual, informal actions without a formal declaration.
• Annexation is the formal incorporation of territory into a state's domain, usually by a forceful or unilateral act. It involves the transfer of political sovereignty from one state to another, often following military occupation. While historically achieved through conquest, in the West Bank it is forced annexation illegal and a violation of territorial integrity. 

This documentation pertains to the period from October 2023 and later.

The Israeli leadership, including members of its organization structure and members of affiliating and or assisting entities, are a war belligerent in Gaza, and 'occupying' belligerent in the West Bank since 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war announced by the then-prime minister Levy Eshkol. Therefore, the following:

We do not view the Israelis and foreigners in the West Bank as "settlers."

We consider someone a settler when the person leaves his or her native country to build a new life elsewhere peacefully, so without having the desire nor intention to take possession of the land and or the properties on the land the person doesn't own. A colonist is someone who leaves his or her native country with the desire and or intention to take possession of the land and properties first, then start to build a new life.

International law considers the establishment of settlements in occupied territory to be illegal. This is because it violates the prohibition on an occupying power transferring its own population into the territory it occupies, as stated in Article 49(6) of the Fourth Geneva Convention. Additionally, settlements are seen as illegal because they are often built on confiscated land, which is prohibited by the Hague Regulations, and are considered a permanent change to the occupied territory. 

A group or configuration of Israeli-built structures is not "settlements" but colonies, as their existence is by force.

This documentation pertains to the period from October 2023 and later.

The Israeli leadership, including members of its organization structure and members of affiliating and or assisting entities, are a war belligerent in Gaza, and 'occupying' belligerent in the West Bank since 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war announced by the then-prime minister Levy Eshkol. Therefore, the following:

International law considers colonies (settlements) in occupied territories to be illegal, primarily due to the prohibition in the Fourth Geneva Convention against an occupying power transferring its own civilian population into the territory it occupies. This is supported by a broad consensus, including numerous United Nations resolutions, and the International Court of Justice's (ICJ) 2024 advisory opinion, which stated that the occupation and its settlement regime are unlawful and have no legal validity. Settlements are seen as a violation of the law of occupation, and any measures to expand or consolidate them are also prohibited.

Outposts in the West Bank are illegal makeshift encampments, like groups of caravans or clusters of prefab houses built on land that is privately owned by Palestinians. This kind of presence is to send the "occupying" belligerent the message that a new colony should be built on the location chosen by colonists

The Israeli leadership, including members of its organization structure and members of affiliating and or assisting entities, is a war belligerent in Gaza, and an 'occupying' belligerent in the West Bank since 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war announced by the then-prime minister Levy Eshkol. Therefore, the following:

International law considers outposts and colonies in occupied territories to be illegal. The Fourth Geneva Convention and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court prohibit an occupying belligerent from transferring its own population into the territory it occupies. This is considered a war crime, as it violates the prohibition against the acquisition of territory by force and undermines the rights of the occupied population.

Therefore, the following:

International law considers de facto annexation to be unlawful and illegal, as it involves the unlawful acquisition (= appropriation) of territory by force and carry the legal consequences, including the obligation for other states not to recognize the annexation. De facto annexation is defined as establishing effective control over a territory through a series of actions, such as applying one's own laws or building settlements, even without a formal declaration of annexation.

Therefore, the following:

De jure annexation is the formal, legal extension of a state's sovereignty over a territory through a formal declaration and act of law. The declaration also admits that the occupying belligerent refuses to act as the administrator. He's then called an illegal occupant under international law because annexation by force is prohibited. Some may also refer to the territory as being under illegal occupation, particularly when a formal declaration of annexation has not been made (= de facto annexation) but the intent to acquire the territory permanently is clear.

International law considers de jure annexation unlawful, as it violates the prohibition on the use of force and is often rooted in aggression. The prohibition against annexation is a peremptory norm (jus cogens), meaning it is a fundamental principle of international law that cannot be overridden. Consequently, any such annexation is legally void, and other states have a duty to not recognize the situation or provide aid to maintain it. 

• This documentation pertains to the period from October 2023 and later.

International law prohibits annexation through the use of force, as it is considered illegal and a violation of state sovereignty and territorial integrity. This prohibition is a fundamental principle of modern international law, affirmed by the UN Charter and other treaties. Any territory acquired through force is not legally recognized, and its annexation is deemed invalid.

Aliyah is Hebrew, meaning "ascent," which has two primary meanings: the act of immigrating to Israel and the religious honor of being called up to read from the Torah. Modern aliyah refers to the immigration of Jews to Israel, a concept central to Zionism, which grants Jewish people the right to move to Israel and gain citizenship under the Law of Return. The term originally referred to the pilgrimage of Jews to Jerusalem for festivals, and in a synagogue, it still means being called up to the "bimah" to recite blessings during a Torah reading. 

International law prohibits recruiting foreigners to migrate to occupied territory, as this is considered a violation of the law of occupation. Such actions are viewed as an attempt by the occupying power to alter the territory's demographic composition, which is illegal. The Fourth Geneva Convention, in particular, forbids the transfer of a population from an occupied territory or the deportation or transfer of parts of its own population into occupied territory. Recruiting foreign civilians to migrate there is a form of this prohibited population transfer, especially when it is done with the intent to settle them in the occupied territory.

Therefore, the following:

International law prohibits an occupying belligerent from expropriating private land except when absolutely necessary for military operations, which is not the situation in the West Bank, as there is no war. Expropriation for the transfer of the occupying belligerent's own civilian population into the occupied territory is a grave breach of international humanitarian law.

Grazing tactics refers to colonizing terrorists, who let (stolen) livestock graze on Palestinian land, and preventing the native people from letting their livestock grazing on their own land as an act of designating the land to be annexed by the armed occupation forces.

International law prohibits the transfer of people, including herders, into an occupied territory and considers the seizure of land for their use illegal. This is because such actions violate the prohibition on forcibly transferring the civilian population of an occupied territory and are considered a violation of the occupying power's duty to protect the rights of the occupied people. 

This law also considers any actions by transferred people, such as stealing sheep, a violation of international humanitarian law (IHL) and property rights. Threatening herders is a form of violence that is prohibited by IHL, which includes the protection of civilians from acts of violence, intimidation, and cruel or degrading treatment.

Therefore, the following:

International law, particularly the Fourth Geneva Convention and the Hague Regulations, prohibits an occupying belligerent from transferring its own civilian population into the territory it occupies. This is considered illegal because it aims to prevent the occupying power from permanently altering the occupied territory's demographic composition, stealing resources, and creating a situation where two separate legal systems exist. The forceful takeover of homes is a specific example of this violation and is illegal under international law.

International law prohibits an occupying power from converting occupied land into permanent military terrain because occupation is considered a temporary situation, not a transfer of sovereignty. Permanent alterations are forbidden, as they create a fait accompli and violate the principle that the occupying power has only provisional control. Measures must avoid permanent, far-reaching changes and should be limited to what is necessary for security or the orderly government of the territory. 

Therefore, taking permanent possession of any part of Palestinian land in the West Bank is considered an illegal conversion of that land, while refusing distinction of civilian use and military objectives, thus as an act of de jure annexation of that part of land.

International law prohibits the destruction of farms and agricultural areas indispensable for the survival of the civilian population, including crops, livestock, and water installations. 

International law prohibits destroying the agriculture of occupied peoples, as it violates rules against destroying property and harming civilians' ability to survive. The Israeli occupying belligerent has a duty to ensure the welfare of the local population and must allow access to food and water. Destruction of agriculture through the transfer of (foreign) colonists leads to state responsibility, and any such destruction may also violate principles of permanent sovereignty over natural resources.

The occupying power has a duty to ensure the welfare of the local population and must allow access to food and water. Destruction of agriculture through the transfer of settlers can lead to state responsibility, and any such destruction may also violate principles of permanent sovereignty over natural resources. 

The occupying power is only considered a temporary administrator and must ensure the territory's resources are used for the benefit of the occupied population, not for its own gain. This prohibition is further detailed in the Fourth Geneva Convention, which forbids the destruction of private or public property except when directly required by military operations.

International law prohibits the theft of harvest from occupied territories, as it constitutes "pillage," which is forbidden. Stealing property is also a violation of the occupying power's obligation to respect private property, unless it is for military use or the property is already under the hostile state's administration. Moreover, transferring the occupying power's population into the territory and forcibly transferring the occupied population are prohibited under the Fourth Geneva Convention.

International law prohibits an occupying power from preventing farmers from accessing their land and from seizing it for colonists. The occupying power's role is limited to acting as an administrator and usufructuary, and it must respect the private property of the occupied population. Transferring the occupying power's own civilians to the occupied territory is also prohibited. 

Preventing farmers from accessing their land for the benefit of colonists constitutes a violation of international law and may be considered a war crime.

International law prohibits stealing and killing livestock in occupied territory, as it falls under pillage and destruction of property, which are considered war crimes. The Israeli occupying belligerent is responsible for preventing these acts and punishing perpetrators, as the law requires it to administer the territory and protect its population and property, not to use them for its own benefit.

Article 54, paragraph 1 of the Additional Protocols to the Geneva Conventions prohibits attacks on water resources and installations if the action would cause disproportionate suffering to the civilian population. This rule protects against the destruction of or diversion of waters and water installations for military purposes or as reprisals. The principle of proportionality requires that any expected civilian harm must not be excessive compared to the anticipated military advantage.

The Israeli leadership, including members of its organization structure and members of affiliating and or assisting entities, is a war belligerent in Gaza, and a colonizing, not occupying, belligerent in the West Bank since 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war announced by the then-prime minister Levy Eshkol. Therefore, the following:

As a colonizing belligerent, the Israeli leadership must administer the area for the benefit of the people it is colonizing. This includes respecting private property. Demolitions are a form of altering the Palestinian land, which international law prohibits.

If the belligerent's control wasn't colonization but occupation, the latter is defined by international law as temporary and should not make far-reaching changes to the existing order.  Extensive and or systematic destruction of property, not justified by military necessity, and carried out unlawfully and wantonly, is a grave breach of the Fourth Geneva Convention.

For immovable public property, the Israeli belligerent is supposed to act as a temporary administrator, not as an acquirer of a country's sovereignty, and must safeguard the territory's capital value.

Therefore, the following:

International law prohibits most forms of forced displacement, which is considered a violation of fundamental human rights and, in cases of armed conflict, a war crime. The international humanitarian law (IHL) prohibits ordering the displacement of civilian populations unless required for their security or for imperative military reasons. In such cases, the displaced population must be received under satisfactory conditions of shelter, hygiene, health, safety, and nutrition.

Therefore, the following:

Forced eviction by an occupying power is prohibited under international law, including the Fourth Geneva Convention, and is considered a gross violation of human rights. International law prohibits forced evictions as a punitive measure or a means of war. An occupying power must ensure the local population's rights and cannot use its own domestic laws to justify actions that violate this obligation.

This prohibition is a core principle of the law of occupation and applies to the recruitment of foreigners for permanent residence, as it can be seen as a form of settlement and population transfer. The goal is to protect the civilian population and their property from the occupying power's actions.

Abduction of Palestinians in and from the West Bank is documented in the following context:

There are a lot of reports and testimonies of Palestinians who were abducted and transferred into the territory of the Israeli occupying belligerent.

International law strictly prohibits the forcible transfer or deportation of people from occupied territory to the territory of the occupying power. This action is considered a grave breach of the Geneva Conventions and a war crime under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC).

International law prohibits the abduction of dead bodies, as it violates the duty to manage, preserve, identify, and return the deceased with dignity. Deliberately ill-treating bodies or preventing their return to families is considered a war crime. The Israeli occupying belligerent has a legal obligation to respect the dead and facilitate the return of their remains to their families. 

International law prohibits using the bodies of occupied people as "bargaining chips" or for any purpose other than respectful and honorable treatment. Using bodies for political leverage, as a bargaining chip, or for any act of desecration is a severe violation of international humanitarian law, specifically the Geneva Conventions and the principles of belligerent occupation. These laws require that the dead be respected, honorably buried, and that their remains not be desecrated or used for political purposes.

Apartheid has two meanings. One of them refers to the political system that was in South Africa. The other meaning is putting yourself or others aside. The word is originally derived from Dutch, meaning 'separateness,' and used by Afrikaners.

The Israelis are resorting to apartheid, which differs from what was in South Africa, and that we have described in Tab 13 on this website.

International law, specifically the Fourth Geneva Convention, prohibits punitive demolition of property during a belligerent occupation, as it constitutes an illegal form of collective punishment. Destruction is only permissible if it is rendered "absolutely necessary by military operations", which has never been proven. Punitive demolitions are prohibited because they punish individuals for acts they did not commit, violate the right to housing, and are not considered a legitimate military necessity.

International law prohibits the Israeli colonizing belligerent from organized provocation and oppression of the occupied population, as it violates core principles of international humanitarian law and human rights law, particularly concerning the protection of civilians and the prohibition of forced transfers. Provocative actions, such as settlement expansion, can be deemed illegal if they destabilize the occupied territory, change its demographic composition, or violate the rights of the protected population, such as by destroying their property or forcibly transferring them. The law requires the occupying power to maintain the existing order and refrain from imposing its own population into the occupied territory.

Under international humanitarian law, acts of terror by civilians illegally transferred into the occupied territory are prohibited. The actions of colonists committing terrorist acts are considered illegal under the law of occupation and can be considered war crimes. The Israeli occupying belligerent has a duty to protect Palestinian civilians. The latter has the right to defend themselves against these attacks when the Israeli occupying belligerent refuses to protect them.

International law prohibits arson and destruction of property by colonists in occupied territories, classifying it as a violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention. This includes prohibitions against the destruction of private property (Article 53) and pillaging (Article 147). Additionally, the destruction of property is prohibited unless it is absolutely necessary for military operations. The latter is not the issue in the West Bank, as arson is committed by colonizing terrorists.

International law prohibits terrorism, including that perpetrated by the Israeli occupying belligerent, and classifies acts as international armed conflicts, which are subject to strict rules. Under the laws of armed conflict, the Israeli occupying belligerent is barred from committing acts of terrorism, such as genocide, ethnic cleansing, and collective punishment, as these are considered war crimes or crimes against humanity. Instead, the Israeli occupying belligerent is obligated to respect the rights of the local population and may not engage in acts like indiscriminate attacks or use starvation as a weapon.

These crimes are defined in various treaties, including the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, and are considered violations of international humanitarian law. International law also specifically prohibits the forcible transfer or deportation of a civilian population from an occupied territory, with some exceptions for the security of the civilians involved or for imperative military reasons.

International law permits restricting freedom of movement for security reasons in occupied territories, but such measures must be temporary, necessary, and proportional. However, restrictions used as a pretext for creating public disorder, or to inflict collective punishment, are illegal. An occupying power has a duty to maintain public order, but it cannot do so in a way that is discriminatory, goes beyond what is necessary for security, or is intended to suppress the local population. 

Based on careful monitoring, public disorder is created by the Israeli occupying belligerent, colonizing terrorists, or colonizing terrorists assisting the Israeli occupying belligerent, or the latter is actively supporting the colonizing terrorists. Therefore, checkpoints, metal barriers, and thrown-up sand mounds constitute collective punishment targeting the freedom of movement of the occupied people who are not the creators of public disorder. The deprivation in the freedom of movement is to suppress the occupied people.

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.

International law prohibits looting and plunder by the Israeli occupying belligerent and colonists, classifying it as a war crime and a violation of the occupied people's rights. Both public and private property are protected, and occupying powers must respect the private property of civilians. Property must be returned after occupation ends, and restitution or compensation for resources that have been exploited or damaged can be required. 

International law, specifically the law of belligerent occupation, generally prohibits vandalism by occupying forces, though it allows for the destruction of private property only if it is a military necessity and cannot be justified by military advantage. Vandalism by colonists is illegal, especially when it involves the destruction of property not justified by military necessity and carried out wantonly. International law also forbids the acquisition of territory through force.

Perfidy is the act of deliberately betraying trust or faith, meaning deceitfulness or treachery. This can include a deliberate breach of faith or a calculated violation of trust, and is distinct from general deception because it involves abusing a position of trust. In a legal or military context, it refers to the misuse of status to injure, kill, or capture an adversary, which is prohibited. 

International law strictly prohibits perfidy by the Israeli occupying belligerent, just as it does for all parties in an armed conflict. Perfidy involves killing, injuring, or capturing an adversary by betraying their confidence under the pretense of protection under international law. Examples include pretending to be a civilian or civilian object to attack. Recruiting someone to carry out or to take part in a covert operation by the pretense of non-combatant, the person commits perfidy.

Raids literally mean a surprise attack. The Israeli occupying belligerent has never proven that it is targeting resistance, but resorts to conflation by treating everyone in the West Bank as the resistance. Therefore, we use the term 'razzia', as the majority of these actions are about punitive, damaging, and demolishing Palestinian properties, ransacking homes, and rounding up civilians. They all resemble Nazi era operations. Razzia is a term used by the Nazis.

International law strictly prohibits raids against civilians in military occupation, as these are considered acts of violence against a protected population. Under the principle of distinction, all parties must at all times distinguish between civilians and combatants, and attacks must be directed only against military objectives. Raids that target civilians, cause indiscriminate harm, or are expected to cause excessive civilian harm in relation to a military advantage are prohibited.

International law strictly prohibits occupying forces from blocking ambulances, as it violates the protection of medical transports, staff, and patients under the Geneva Conventions and other IHL principles. This is because ambulances, like other medical units, are designated as protected, and the right to health requires ensuring the physical access of medical services. Blocking ambulances is a serious breach that can lead to war crimes and is prohibited unless under extremely specific circumstances, such as for verification, and only after due warning has been given.

Under international humanitarian law (IHL), including the Geneva Conventions, hospitals have special protected status and must not be attacked or raided. This protection is fundamental and applies at all times during armed conflict and occupation.

International law prohibits an occupying power from damaging cultural property by making it responsible for safeguarding and preserving cultural objects from theft, pillage, and misappropriation. Key legal frameworks like the 1954 Hague Convention and its protocols require an occupying power to protect cultural heritage, prohibit its destruction or damage, and prevent its removal from the territory. This includes a duty to prevent looting, illicit export, and the use of cultural sites for military purpose.

International law prohibits an occupying power from closing mosques unless there is an "imperative military necessity," but this is highly restrictive. The destruction of religious buildings is forbidden, and intentionally targeting them is a war crime. An occupying power must protect the civilian population and their property, including cultural and religious sites, and can only seize or destroy private property if absolutely necessary for military operations. 

International law prohibits the desecration of mosques and other cultural and religious sites by an occupying power, which has a duty to respect and protect them under conventions like the Hague Regulations and Geneva Conventions. The Israeli occupying belligerent must not impose far-reaching changes on the existing order, and the freedom of worship must be ensured, with a call for the international community to intervene when these laws are violated. 

International law prohibits the Israeli occupying belligerent from damaging mosques, classifying the intentional destruction of buildings dedicated to religion as a war crime. This protection stems from the principles that cultural heritage is the heritage of all mankind and must be safeguarded during armed conflict, as outlined in the 1954 Hague Convention and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. The Israeli occupying belligerent has specific obligations to protect the civilian population and civilian property, and damaging cultural or religious sites can violate the principles of proportionality and distinction, potentially leading to grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions.

International law prohibits the targeting of journalists by the Israeli occupying belligerent because they are civilians protected under international humanitarian law. Deliberately targeting journalists is a war crime, as they are entitled to protection unless they directly participate in hostilities. This protection extends to them and their equipment, and intentional attacks against them are unlawful.

International law requires that the Israeli occupying belligerent at all times distinguish between civilian objects and military objectives, a core principle known as the principle of distinction. This means that its operations must be directed exclusively against military objectives in the West Bank. Civilians and civilian objects are protected from attack. A military objective is defined as an object that, by its nature, location, purpose, or use, makes an effective contribution to military action and whose destruction offers a distinct military advantage. The latter has never been a situation in the West Bank.

Anyone who is a member or represents the Israeli colonizing leadership is considered a suspect of (war) violations when it is credibly alleged to have breached the specific rules and obligations outlined in international humanitarian law (IHL), primarily the 1907 Hague Regulations and the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949. Suspicions arise from actions that violate the rights of the protected population of the colonized Palestinian people or exceed the temporary administrative authority granted to the Israeli leadership, but not as the acquirer of the sovereignty of the West Bank.

International law strictly limits the use of cyber technology against occupied people, with the core principles of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and International Human Rights Law (IHRL) applying to activities in cyberspace just as they do in the physical world. The use of surveillance technology to suppress an occupied population is prohibited when it violates the fundamental rights to privacy and dignity of the protected persons. The Israeli occupying belligerent has been found multiple times using technology to suppress and oppress people who are under their (foreign) colonization.
