Israel’s act of self defense in laying siege to Hamas terrorists and their supporters in the Gaza Strip was declared a “prohibited” act Tuesday by the U.N. human rights chief.
U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, issued a call for peace and understanding in the region from his office in Geneva, Switzerland, before admonishing any prospective retaliatory move by Israel against its Islamic attackers. He cautioned:
The imposition of sieges that endanger the lives of civilians by depriving them of goods essential for their survival is prohibited under international humanitarian law
Any restrictions on the movement of people and goods to implement a siege must be justified by military necessity or may otherwise amount to collective punishment.

Was the “Palestinian” attack on Israel ‘prohibited’ under international law?
Asking for a friend.

Well, there you have it. The same will always be the same.
“International Law” is what US law has become. The “Law” is only used on, and applicable to, certain countries and people.
This just can’t be ignored. it is in your face.

GTH UN.
Hopefully if/when Trump gets in, the following will become a reality:
UN out of US
US out of UN (except we should stay on the security council so we can veto their anti-US and anti-Israel actions, but NO MORE MONEY to the UN)

Israel should deal with Hamas first, Hezbollah second, and then deal with the U.N. the same way they dealt with the two former.
To: E. Pluribus Unum
Israel should pull out from the UN. If you aren’t part of the UN, you cannot be told what to do by the UN.

Not ruled by the UN or International Law when at WAR. UN conflates as usual.
