UN Decision Implication #7

Over at ACRI, there's a Q & A on the latest Pal. move to avoid peace with Israel.

Here's Implication # 7:-


7. What are the implications of this initiative on Israeli settlements?
If the Palestinian state would become a party to the International Criminal Court, the issue of Israeli settlements could become an issue of international criminal law. This, under the article in the Statute of the Court stating that the transfer, whether direct or indirect, of the population of the occupying power into occupied territory constitutes a war crime. This could potentially open the door to the prosecution of Israelis responsible for establishing or expanding settlements.

So how come when Jordan illegally occupied Judea and Samaria and transferred in its poulation. no one did anything?

Oh?  The law changed?

Arabs don't get prosecuted?

Who cares?
