Brief description of the Geneva Conventions and images showing their every day violations in the occupied territories.
WE, International Community HAVE the DUTY, the legal, moral, human OBLIGATION to do everything we can do so these Conventions, and particulary IV Geneva Conventions which applies to Palestinian people, which not only should, but MUST PROTECT these people are respected.
The violation of these articles represent war crimes, and even crimes against humanity.
And it’s not only Israel, but we as silent accomplice who are guilty as .
Some notes :
The first Geneva Convention of 1864 dealt exclusively with care for wounded soldiers; the law was later adapted to cover warfare at sea and prisoners of war.
In 1949 the Conventions were revised and expanded:
1st Convention
- wounded soldiers on the battlefield
2nd Convention
- wounded and shipwrecked at sea
3rd Convention
- prisoners of war
4th Convention
- civilians under enemy control

Peace, love and …
Peace, love and harmony are disappearing in the name of a lot of sad things.
Basically I believe in Lucy. I believe that we all come from the same root, and that we’re all branches of a same tree that grew apart.
We’re all technically from the same essence, have the same sap flowing in us, but sometimes, sadly, we don’t see our link to earth or sky from the same point of view.
Humans are so unhuman that they need written laws above them talking about Respect of Life, of seeds of Love.

Male & female have …
Male & female have been created to make couples & give birth to their young ones. Mother and father love their young ones giving them the lesson to love humanity. But when this law is violated originating s community end result in the form of wildest form of man is being observed. Peace love and harmony are disappearing at a fast pace from the earth violating the nature making way for earthquakes, sea storms & destruction of mankind by man & the mother nature in the worst possible way.

Gaza est une prison …
Gaza est une prison à l’air libre où les prisonniers ont moins de droit que ceux de Guantanamo. La Cisjordanie est un territoire déchiré en confettis où tout est réglé au nom des colons. Et ils disent que c’est la Paix… ce sont des violations des Conventions. Et pas une semaine sans morts violentes. C’est inhumain.

La “guerre” bat …
La “guerre” bat toujours sous plein… même sans le bruit des bombes des Palestiniens sont bloqués à des points de passage humiliants, voient des terres confisquées au nom de colonies à agrandir. Des murs encerclent totalement des villages.

… Oh timothy… …
… Oh timothy… C’est ça le plus terrible, c’est que tout, tout a déjà été dit… Tant de jours, tant de nuits, tant de gens ont tant dit, et tu vois, je me dis que c’est simplement insupportable toutes ces vies brisées. Il n’y a pas un seul enfant palestinien qui n’a vécu un deuil, un traumatisme monstrueux. C’est impardonnable. Mais ce qui le serait plus encore c’est de ne pas donner, enfin, un signe clair aux Palestiniens. Les protéger des spoliations et dévastations quotidiennes.

Once again I’ll …
Once again I’ll repeat : Every time Palestinian came with olive branches, Israel prefered to tear off entire acres of olive trees and make walls. As long as Israel has this impunity to kill, you’ll make the game of these forces which are using Palestinian’cause.
As you may know, while we’re sitting here and talking, they have no eletricity, no water, no roof, no computer… They feel alone, forgotten, and if some believe hamas is their only possible choice and help who is to blame ?

*HELP GAZA AGAINST …
*HELP GAZA AGAINST THE HAMAS INDOCTRINATION*
The UN definition for a “Palestinian” is
any non-Jew who has lived in Palestine for at
least two years. They are a recently made-up
people group. Yassir Arafat, for instance, was
Egyptian! And the government of that region keeps
them in poverty and illiteracy, so it can recruit
the ignorant into suicide bombing in Israel. They
keep their people poor on purpose, because it’s
useful for the HAMAS

Enough is enough ! …
Enough is enough !
Even Paris, its large streets, police officer with fine costumes and organisation cannot prevent cars being burnt… Look at the state Israel has put Palestinian society ! how, how can they organise anything ? They even cannot work ! (art 52) is violated for months and months… Even if everybody can say a lot of things about hamas, its allies, and all, it would be good, for once that this kind of impunity in taking and breaking lives, stops, because it’s simply unhuman.

So, excuse me but …
So, excuse me but after the abominations we saw, and so much we didn’t see because of the terrifying state of prisonners kept between walls made of Palestinians families, I find it a bit easy, and undecent to discuss Hamas under a video that talks about Israel’s terrible ordeal on palestinian civilians. What if Israel had not given the image of silly fools to people talking peacefully ? Israel even tries to break peacefull people. And who can blame ignorance while even shelling unwra schools ?

Yesterday, some new …
Yesterday, some new acres of land were taken from palestinian hands to make a commercial center, a coffeehouse ?? I don’t know. Look, I’m sorry, but I think that every day… even when Israel is not shelling some phosphorus bomb on civilians, we see violation of art 49 : putting one’s own population on an occupied territory. Since Arafat shook hands with Rabin there is 150% more colonies, 1 million Jews from Russia, something like 20% people more…
