The attack on Iran was “clearly a violation of the ban on the use of force under the UN charter and international law, which is the linchpin of the international order since 1945,” he told Guardian Australia on Sunday.

“Domestic criminal acts like the IRGC’s interference here, of course, are not armed attacks which would somehow justify military self-defence against Iran.

“You may not like Iran, you may not like what it does, but that doesn’t justify an aggressive armed attack on Iran.”

I support the people of Iran so obviously I cannot endorse this 'international law expert'

    You are fine with the at least 70k palestinians murdered by the genocidial israel and enjoying israrl killing over 100 poor little girl in a school and you think I will be stupid enough to believe your BS. It is pretty clear that you enjoyed the regime murdering civilians because it allows you to express even more support for your beloved Israel

    Israel in the war with Hamas (which they did not start), and sad nature of the wars that civilians die. So 70k are not applied there. Same with Iran; attack on Iran was an act of war. No one targets these poor girls on purpose. They are just another tragic collateral. This is a main difference with the action of Iran’s government and the US. The US so far has not killed civilians intentionally (but does not give much fuck about their lives either).

    Will Iran and the world win if Iran gets a less murderous government? I guess it will.

    Israel is stealing Palestinians land for 78 goodman year that's settler colonialism. There is nothing that justify settler colonialism . Israel and the usa bombed a fucking elementary girl school killing over 150 kids how the hell it that justifiable ? 83% of the Palestinians who got murdered are civilians this is clearly not collateral damage it is very intentional . They destroyed almost all agricultural field which means the population can no longer sustain itself. They are basically starving Palestinians

    Ok. What do you expect Jews to do when their enemy’s position is unmovable: “kill all Jews”? Israel defends itself. Fight or die. It is a war. There are plenty of Muslims living in Israel without problems, so the problem is not on the Israeli side. And why do you bring these poor girls as an argument? They have nothing to do with Palestine.

    You are a big liar. From israeli source

    In 1884 the first Yemenites settled in Silwan and for 45 years lived peacefully and on very good terms with their Arab neighbors. It seemed that the people of Silwan, which was known to be a poor village, found common ground with the poor Jewish Yemenites that lived among them.

    Despite the attempt to depict the 1929 Arab Riot as a violent incident against the Jews in Silwan, it is clear that it was not the case. From a letter of gratitude that the Yemenite Jews sent to their Arab neighbors, we can learn about the devotion and benevolence that the Arabs have shown towards the Yemenites by undauntedly protecting them, and also about the amity and good neighborly relations that prevailed between the two communities.

    Palestinian had a problem with zionists who was foreigners moving to palestine under pretext of being refugees when the plan was settler colonilism and ethenic cleansing

    after the formation of a large army in the wake of the establishment of the state, we will abolish partition and expand to the whole of Palestine - The terrorist and first prime minister of Israel Ben Gurion

    Ben gurion admited it they are rhe one eho was sating exterminate all palestinians from their land

    To occupy Gaza and the west bank they used the same dumb excuse russia used to occupy ukraine in 67
