Israelis have a fundamental misunderstanding and lack of knowledge of, or complete disregard for international law and how it applies to Israel’s occupation and blockade of the Palestinian territories.
Their misunderstaing or deliberate indifference can be found in the words of current Israeli finance minister Bezalel Smotrich:
In 2017, Israeli far-right Bezalel Smotrich proposed what he termed a “decisive plan” to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Smotrich, who is now serving as finance minister in Netanyahu’s cabinet, argued (correctly) that the root of the conflict was competing claims to the same land from two distinct national groups.
But, unlike his centrist peers, Smotrich claimed that these ambitions were incommensurable: that no territorial compromise could ever be reached between Israelis and Palestinians. Bezalel views Israel’s illegal occupation as a zero-sum game: one side has to win and the other side has to lose.
Bezalel Smotrich, Benjamin Netanyahu and American media disregard international law and the legal rights of THE OCCUPIED as laid out in the Geneva Conventions. To apply and recognize international law as the controlling authority instead of ancient canonical dreams and aspirations, would mean to recognize Palestinians as the rightful, legal landowners and thus victims of the Israeli occupation.
For this U.S. State Dept. and Biden admin to recognize int’l law in promulgating official U.S. foreign policy, would mean the State Dept. and White House would have to actually recognize Palestinians as the victims and Israelis as the perpetrators and be willing to give Israel an ultimatum and incentive to comply with U.N. Resolution 242 and withdraw to Israel’s borders on June 5, 1967 the day BEFORE Israel invaded Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem – something this current set of U.S. officials are not willing to do.
Israel will never voluntarily withdraw from the Palestinian territories and remove the illegal settlements.
In fact, the current evidence shows that Netanyahu is executing his diabolical plans to keep his ass out of Israeli prison for felony bribery by maintaining a long, protracted war against Hamas – the citizens of Israel are angry at Netanyahu for trying to destroy Israeli democracy by giving him and his crew dictatorial powers beyond that of the Israeli Supreme Court, but most Israeli citizens weren’t trying to hear his bullshit and turned out in massive droves, heavily protesting every day for months and months directly against Benjamin Netanyahu himself and his wild, whacky, bloodthirsty ministers.

By these means and legal causes of action, how much does the State of Israel owe the Palestinian people?
Any assessment of the damage and harm Israel as a state has done to the Palestinian people is metaphysically immeasurable, but quite measurable in the international World Court.
The same World Court Israel sued Germany for over a trillion dollars and have already collected a great deal of the final judgment.
Israel is so different from the United States, Netanyahu would never accept U.S. statehood for Israel under any circumstances. Why not?
Because the last thing Netanyahu wants is for his victims to stroll into the clerk’s office of the U.S. DISTRICT COURT OF ISRAEL and file a federal lawsuit seeking damages for Plaintiff’s injuries.
IF there was a People of Palestine versus The State of Israel in federal court, there’s little doubt the Court would grant Plaintiff SUMMARY JUDGMENT precisely because the legal facts of the case wholly substantiate SUMMARY JUDGMENT AGAINST DEFENDANT ISRAEL.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu don’t need no stinking U.S. Constitution and personal Constitutional rights stinking up the place! Heck no! He’s got it just the way he wants it: no state constitution with no individual enumerated rights, so Israeli government officials can jail anyone, anytime, anywhere for any governmental reason.
