so you like equating Israeli Jews with pigs and fantasising about sticking (slaughtering) them so they squeal?

Well, I think you are an antisemitic pig. And, one of these days, you're gonna get stuck yourself, sweetheart.

The Allies did not rely on vague theories about 'universal jurisdiction'. The Allies had (i) in personem jurisdiction of the defendants and (ii) legal authority as the sole civilian authority in post-war Germany.

This is another example of persons with no knowledge or expertise in international law or legal matters generally making inaccurate critisisms of Israel and supporters of Israel.

99% of the talk I hear and read about regarding 'international law' and the Arab-Israeli dispute is just ignorant and wrong.

The proposal of the European Union High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy, Javier Solana, for the United Nations to accept Palestine as a full member within two years, was made with the support at the highest levels of the Obama administration. Palestinian and European Union sources told Haaretz that Israel’s talks with US special envoy George Mitchell will initially focus on determining the permanent border between Israel and the West Bank.

Despite Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s non-negotiable position on the status of Jerusalem and on the right of return for Palestinians, both sides are expected by the Obama administration to find common ground through the exchange of land rather than a focus on the pre-1967 borders.

In the event a final agreement on the settlement freeze issue next week, a tripartite meeting is expected in New York between the head of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, Netanyahu, and President Obama at the UN General Assembly this month.

Noit in Israel's interest at all withg Obama as he will sell out Israel publically and privately.

He supports one of the most corrupt, amoral, and anti-semetic movements in history which is the left in the USA. All of these outrages are being committed by leftist governments which he supports. He is continually "punked" by this repugnant community but still comes running when they call for support. He is foolish and dumb and deserves to be ignored.

But now that it is their ox being gored, they are squealing like stuck pigs. Easy to see where the hypocrisy lies.
