Occupied or disputed. As more fully dealt with in the paper on SAN REMO, courtesy Maurice Ostroff
(www.2nd-thoughts.org/xxxx ) the land on both sides of the Jordan, were part of the Jewish National Home created by the 1920 San Remo Conference, mandated to Britain, endorsed by the League of Nations in 1922, affirmed in the Anglo-American Convention on Palestine in 1925 and confirmed in 1945 by article 80 of the UN.
Although Jerusalem and the West Bank, (Judea and Samaria), were illegally occupied by Jordan in 1948 they remained in effect part of the Jewish National Home that had been created at San Remo. In the 1967 6-Day War Israel, in effect, recovered territory that legally belonged to it.
The late Prof. Julius Stone reinforces the claim that the areas are not occupied: He wrote, “ Israel‘s presence in all these areas pending negotiation of new borders is entirely lawful, since Israel entered them lawfully in self-defence. International law forbids acquisition by unlawful force, but not where, as in the case of Israel’s self-defence in 1967, the entry on the territory was lawful. It does not so forbid it, in particular, when the force is used to stop an aggressor, for the effect of such prohibition would be to guarantee to all potential aggressors that, even if their aggression failed, all territory lost in the attempt would be automatically returned to them. Such a rule would be absurd to the point of lunacy. There is no such rule"…. See http://www.2nd-thoughts.org/id160.html

Hey Real Real Phoney this is from the PLO's 1964 Charter - before the "occupation" - where they say:

Article 24: This Organization does not exercise any territorial sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, on the Gaza Strip or in the Himmah Area. Its activities will be on the national popular level in the liberational, organizational, political and financial fields.

So whose territory do you say Israel "stole".

What a Muppet you are.

I see you are afflicted with the same reading disability as the late professor

" ......the inadmissability of the acquisition of territory through war. "

And you need to stop selective extractions from the 4th Geneva Convention. For your information Muppet
the pre-amble to the 4th Geneva Convention reads as follows:

" In addition to the provisions which shall be implemented in peace-time, the present Convention shall apply to all cases of declared war or of any other armed conflict which may arise between two or more of the High Contracting Parties, even if the state of war is not recognized by one of them.

The Convention shall also apply to all cases of partial or total occupation of the territory of a High Contracting Party, even if the said occupation meets with no armed resistance."

A High Contracting Party is a state, country or nation. So from which state do you claim Israel acquired Judea and Samaria? Hint it wasn't Jordan - it acquired it illegally when it attacked Israel in 1948. Second hint it wasn't the Palestinians they had confirmed in their 1964 Covenant that they had no territorial claims to Judea and Samaria (Art. 24)

The truth will out in the end - troll.
