GAZA — On Saturday,
Palestinian Minister of Justice Mohammad Al-Shalalda strongly condemned Israel
for its failure to respect and implement international legal decisions. He
emphasized that these actions by Israel not only violate international law but
also constitute crimes against humanity. Shalalda also raised a pressing
question about the effectiveness of international decisions when they remain
unenforced. He went on to allege that Israel has used white phosphorus against
civilians.

With regard to the Arab resolution adopted by
the United Nations General Assembly on Friday, which called for an immediate
and enduring humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza and vehemently opposed any attempts
to forcibly transfer Palestinian civilians, Al-Mamlaka TV reported.
120 countries supported the resolution
It is noteworthy that the General Assembly
resolution was initiated by Jordan and gained support from 42 other countries.
Ultimately, 120 countries supported the resolution, while 14 nations opposed
it, and 45 countries abstained from voting.
Those who opposed are opposing international
law
Shalalda argued that those who opposed the
resolution were, in essence, opposing international law and advocating for the
rule of force over the rule of law. He emphasized the legal significance of the
resolution and underscored the need to exert pressure on Israel to comply with
it. This compliance would serve as a testament to the success of Arab
diplomacy. Additionally, he pointed out that the resolution encapsulated the
sentiments expressed by His Majesty King Abdullah and other Arab leaders during
the Cairo Summit for Peace.
Israel is an apartheid state
Shalalda concluded by noting that the
resolution, along with its successful adoption, shines a spotlight on Israel as
an apartheid state. The majority of the world's nations have taken a clear
stance, and the resolution stands as a strong legal rebuke to those who opposed
it.
