Full text of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon

Announcement of a Cessation of Hostilities and Related Commitments on Enhanced Security Arrangements and Towards the Implementation of UNSCR 1701

After discussions with the governments of the republic of Lebanon (hereinafter „Lebanon“) and the state of Israel (hereinafter „Israel“), the United States of America and France understand that Lebanon and Israel seek a sustainable end to the current escalation of hostilities across the Blue Line and are each prepared to take steps to promote conditions for a permanent and comprehensive solution. These understandings reflect steps to which Israel and Lebanon are committed in order to implement fully UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1701, recognising that UNSCR 1701 also calls for full implementation of its predecessor UNSC resolutions, including „disarmament of all armed groups in Lebanon“, so that the only forces authorised to carry arms in Lebanon will be the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF), Internal Security Forces, Directorate of General Security, General Directorate of State Security, Lebanese Customs and Municipal Police (hereinafter “Lebanon‘s official military and security forces“). To that end, the US and France understand the following…

A resolution, the so-called „Palestine Authority“ would „likely“ bring into the United Nations General Assembly. Alleged content: the Israeli occupation force has to leave Palestine within a year (and therefor 58 years too late).

Now – where is the resolution?

Palästina und die Unabhängigkeit: Eine unnötige Verzögerung

(30. Dezember 2014)

Es ist die alte Regel des Imperialismus und seiner sadistischen Handlanger: Wenn Du schon verloren hast, quatsch Deinen Gegner zu und organisiere, dass dieser sich selbst ermordet, ruiniert, zerstört, oder zumindest seine Chancen, Vorteile und Talente. Genau das geschieht seit Jahren mit den europäischen Demokratien. Genau das geschieht heute Nacht (1, 2) im Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen mit Palästina.

Die Resolution, die Mahmud Abbas und die “Palästinensische Befreiungsorganisation” nicht selbst in den Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen einbringen konnten und sich daher an die Monarchie Jordanien wandten, ist gut. Sie ist, im Vergleich zur Resolution der P.L.O. vom 17. Dezember, sogar noch verbessert wurden. Ostjerusalem wurde eben nicht verraten und verkauft. Im Gegenteil, die Resolution beinhaltet im Entscheidungstext (“decides”) unter Punkt 2:

“eine gerechte Lösung des Status von Jerusalem als der Hauptstadt der zwei Staaten, die die legitimen Anliegen beider Parteien erfüllt und die Freiheit des Betens beschützt.”

Angekündigt wurde diese Resolution von Mahmud Abbas bereits vor fast einem halben Jahr, in seiner Rede am 26. September in der Allgemeinen Versammlung der Vereinten Nationen. Abbas damals wörtlich:

“Während der letzten zwei Wochen, unterhielten Palästina (Anm.: Abbas Autonomiebehörde) und die Arabische Gruppe intensive Kontakte mit den verschiedenen regionalen Gruppen in den Vereinten Nationen, um die Einbringung eines Resolutionsentwurfs bezüglich des israelisch-palästinensischen Konflikts für dessen Annahme durch den Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen vorzubereiten und die Bemühungen um Frieden voranzutreiben.”

Nur zur Erinnerung: das war mitten in einem durch die Regierung Israels angerichteten Massaker im aufständischen Teil Palästinas, dem Gazastreifen, in das zum wiederholten Male Bodentruppen der Kolonialmacht Israel versuchten einzumarschieren, in Absprache mit den Regierungen in Berlin und Washington bezüglich einer “Demilitarisierung” des Gazastreifens und dem damit verbundenen absehbaren Versuch deutsche “Inspektoren” als Besatzungsmacht einzubinden.

Das war vor einem halben Jahr.

Seitdem passierte durch Abbas Behörde und die P.L.O. hinsichtlich der Resolution gar nichts, außer das in regelmäßigen Abständen immer wieder behauptet wurde, jaja, jetzt aber. Jetzt aber.

Jetzt werde man die Unabhängigkeits-Resolution in den Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen einbringen. Bloß 36 Jahre nach der eigenen Unabhängigkeitserklärung. Nur noch ein halbes Jahr lang schwätzen. Bloß noch ein halbes Jahr.

Am 17. Dezember stellt die P.L.O. ihre Resolution vor und versteckte diese auf ihrer Webseite so gut es ging. Ich fand sie erst Tage später. Meines Wissens nach verlinkte kein einziges palästinensisches Portal die Resolution oder verwies auch nur darauf, auch nicht die palästinensische Nachrichtenagentur WAFA.

Als stattdessen Mahmud Abbas schon wieder vor der Presse auftauchte und irgendetwas als Begleitmusik zu seinem Nichtstun erzählte, schrieb ich dazu am 21. Dezember des Jahres 2014 in Kurzform meine Meinung. Als es dann nach Weihnachten am 29. Dezember endlich hieß, die palästinensische Resolution werde nun tatsächlich in den Sicherheitsrat eingebracht, zum Erstaunen “westlicher Dipomaten”, dachte ich, na endlich. Jetzt kann´s losgehen.

Nur zur Erklärung: Einbringen heisst nicht abstimmen. Gerade wenn drei Tage später am 1. Januar 2015 fünf Staaten neues Mitglied im U.N.O.-Sicherheitsrat werden, von denen vier – Angola, Venezuela, Spanien und Malaysien – Palästina wahrscheinlich ihre Stimme geben würden und die Chancen auf einen Sieg damit erheblich steigen. Die palästinensische Unabhängigkeits-Resolution, die durch Annahme im U.N.O.-Sicherheitsrat völkerrechtlich verbindlich und rechtsgültig wäre, braucht 9 Stimmen von 15 Mitgliedern.

Ich hatte bereits während des Putsches in der Ukraine und des anschließenden Aufbaus der Neurussland-Falle den Eindruck, als lese nur eine Klientel meine Artikel tatsächlich und sorge

“umgehend dafür, dass genau das Gegenteil von dem geschah was ich in diesen mit aller Bescheidenheit empfohlen hatte.”

Ich sehe, genau jetzt, diese Sadisten und Faschisten im seit Ausbruch des Terrorkrieges in 2001 mit Geld, Macht und Spielzeugen für Kranke vollgelaufenen “Sicherheits”-Apparat vor mir, auch in Jerusalem, auch in New York, wie sie versuchen die Palästinenser – neben den Kurden das Volk was noch immer für deren geostrategische Spielchen hergehalten und gelitten hat – ein weiteres Mal auf das Dreckigste zu betrügen………

Heinz Bude und der Umbau der Gesellschaft

(1. März 2024)

Gestern habe ich ein Video aus einer Diskussionsveranstaltung zur Aufarbeitung der Coronakrise geschnitten. Die Diskussionsveranstaltung fand bereits am 24. Januar 2024 an der Universität Graz statt unter dem Titel “Gesellschaft im Ausnahmezustand – Was lernen wir aus der Coronakrise?“. Auf dem Podium waren Heinz Bude (Uni Kassel), Alexander Bogner (ÖAW Wien) und Klaus Kraemer (Uni Graz). Moderiert wurde die Diskussion von Daphne Hruby (freie Mitarbeiterin beim ORF.

(…)

Heinz Bude: Jetzt noch einmal aus dem Nähkästchen geplaudert. Wir haben gesagt, wir mussten, wir müssen ein Modell finden, um Folgebereitschaft herzustellen, das so ein bisschen wissenschaftsähnlich ist. Und das war diese Formel „Flatten the curve“, dass wir gesagt haben „Wie können wir die Leute zu überzeugen, mitzutun?“ Wir sagen denen, es sieht so nach Wissenschaft aus, ne? Man sagt, „wenn ihr, wenn ihr schön diszipliniert seid, könnt ihr die Kurve verändern“. Das heißt quasi man kann – es gibt eine Veranschaulichung von individuellen Verhaltensveränderungen in einer Art von wissenschaftlicher Darstellbarkeit. Das war in dieser, in dieser Form mit drin. Das haben wir geklaut von einem Wissenschaftsjournalisten haben wir nicht selber erfunden. Aber wir fanden das irgendwie toll, dass man so, also dass man so ein quasi Wissenschaftsargument noch in der Art der Erzeugung von… (Heinz Bude wird an dieser Stelle unterbrochen. Der weitere Redebeitrag setzt wenige Minuten später wieder ein)

Also das ist glaube ich jetzt ein ganz wichtiger Punkt. Meiner Ansicht nach laufen wir auf wieder singuläre Krisen absehbar hinaus. In unserer gesellschaftlichen Entwicklung. Nehmen wir nur Extremwetterereignisse und singuläre Krisen, die ich vor Augen sehe, werden damit zu tun haben, dass man auf individuelles Verhalten zugreifen muss. Also indem etwa bei Extremwetterereignissen wird man Leute evakuieren müssen. Man wird Leuten sagen müssen, Du kannst dein Haus nicht mehr an dieser Stelle aufbauen. Und man wird Zwang ausüben müssen auf Leute, die sagen, ich habe aber andere Informationen, ich lasse mich hier nicht evakuieren. Und zwar legitimen Zwang. Wir werden mit Situationen vermehrt zu tun haben in der Zukunft. Solche Art von Krisen, die individuelle Verhaltensveränderungen verlangen, wenn man den Krisen als Gesellschaft in kollektiver Handlungsfähigkeit standhalten will. Und das ist das entscheidende Argument. Können wir das überhaupt in einer modernen liberalen Gesellschaft? Geht das eigentlich? Und muss man da nicht hinterrücks ganz furchtbare Dinge wie Angstkommunikation, also sozialpsychologische Dinge benutzen, um solche Arten von Folgebereitschaften zur Veränderung von individuellem Verhalten vorzunehmen? Das ist ein Unterschied, als ob man eine Krise wie 2008/2009 durch eine Stellschraubenveränderung in Bezug auf die Finanzmärkte lösen kann. Das ist eine andere Sorte von Krisenlösung. Die Krisenlösungen, die uns bevorstehen, haben den Charakter von Kriegen, sie haben den Charakter von Pandemien, und die haben den Charakter von Extremwetterereignissen. Das ist absehbar. Auch Europa wird in mittlerer Frist noch wieder Kriege haben. Und da sind die Dinge, wo man sich überlegen muss, Welche Art von Vorratsreflexion sozialwissenschaftlicher Art braucht man auf diese absehbare Herausforderung, die vor uns steht?

60. In view of the foregoing arguments and recalling the relevant resolutions of the United Nations General Assembly and Security Council, the Republic of Türkiye respectfully calls upon the nternational Court of Justice to declare the policies and practices of Israel in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, illegal under international law. Israel must also respect the historical status quo in the holy places in Jerusalem.

(…)

The PRESIDENT: I thank the delegation of Zambia for its presentation. I invite the next participating delegation, the League of Arab States, to address the Court and I call Mr Abdel Hakim El Rifai to the podium.

Mr EL RIFAI:

1. Thank you, Mr President, honourable Members of the Court, it is a great honour and privilege to appear before you today, on behalf of the League of Arab States.

2. I would like to read a statement by His Excellency Mr Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the League of Arab States.

3. The League of Arab States attaches high importance to the present proceedings, hoping that they contribute to safeguarding the principles of international law, to uphold the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, and end the last oppressive, expansionist, apartheid, settler-colonial occupation, still standing in the twenty-first century.

4. The persistence of this occupation, acts of genocide, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, crimes against humanity, displacement of populations, imprisonment of Palestinians behind illegal segregation walls, expansion of illegal settlements, creating new political realities on the ground aiming at complicating the dismantling of the occupation ⎯ all ⎯ will never discourage Palestinians from claiming their legitimate inalienable rights.

5. The insistence on placing Israel above the law, through the politicization of accountability and adopting double standards in the application of justice is a direct threat to international peace and stability.

6. Ending Israel’s total impunity, and subjecting it ⎯ like any other State ⎯ to the universal rules of international law, will help annul its pretexts to systematically reject peace initiatives, the most serious of which is the Arab Peace Initiative of 2002, which offered full normalization of relations with all Arab States, in exchange of Israel only respecting its already established obligations, under the bodies of international law, human rights law, and the United Nations Security Council and General Assembly resolutions.

33. The only State besides Fiji to defend Israel is the United States. This is not surprising. Whatever offences against international law Israel commits, the United States comes forward to shield it from accountability. Here, the United States attempts to defend Israel, not by arguing that the occupation is lawful, but that it is neither lawful nor unlawful. To reach this conclusion, the United States argues that belligerent occupation is governed exclusively by international humanitarian law and not by the United Nations Charter or general international law. In its own words: “Although international humanitarian law imposes obligations on belligerents in their conduct of an occupation, it does not provide for the legal status of an occupation to be lawful or unlawful.“

President Biden: Yes, I do. But there needs to be a Palestinian authority. There needs to be a path to a Palestinian state.

That path, called „the two state solution,“ has been U.S. policy for decades. It would create an independent nation next to Israel for 5 million Palestinians who live in Gaza and on the West Bank of the Jordan River.

Scott Pelley: And you believe Israel would pursue that after what‘s occurred–

President Biden: Not now. Not now. Not now, but– but I think Israel understands that a significant portion of Palestinian people do not share the views of Hamas and Hezbollah.

Release the Transcripts of Israel‘s COVID Cabinet Meetings

The Supreme Court is currently deliberating over Haaretz’s petition, drafted by attorney Tal Lieblich, to release transcripts of cabinet and ministerial committee meetings on the coronavirus. For more than a year, this battle has been wending its way through the courts. In addition to its demand that the full transcripts be released for public scrutiny, the petition seeks to mount a challenge in principle to a rule that automatically defines all ministerial meetings as classified – a rule that leads to documentation being buried in the archives for at least 30 years.

Welcome to the ACU, the Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee.

Dear fellow citizens,

Welcome to the ACU, the Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee. If Parliament does not do it, we, the citizens, are called upon to do it ourselves.

As the Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee, we will investigate why these restrictive measures were imposed upon us in our country as part of CoVid-19, why people are suffering now and whether there is proportionality of the measures to this disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We have serious doubts that these measures are proportionate. This needs to be examined, and since the parliaments – neither the opposition parties nor the ruling parties – have not convened a committee and it is not even planned, it is high time that we took this into our own hands. We will invite and hear experts here in the Corona speaker group. These are experts from all areas of life: medicine, social affairs, law, economics and many more.

Well-known experts have already agreed to be part of it. In addition to the speaker group, my colleague Prof. HADITSCH and my colleague Dr. SCHIFFMANN, I would also like to introduce myself. My name is Heiko SCHÖNING, I’m an ordinary doctor from Hamburg. My personal motivation is that I am a father, like many others in this country who have children. And we see that our children are suffering now, not just because the playgrounds have been closed, but because they are separated. And it‘s worse for the adults.

We ask ourselves: Why are people no longer allowed to visit their parents in retirement homes? Is there such a great risk of infection? Do we really have a killer virus here? Do we have rabies or do we have the plague? We have serious doubts that this is the case! We do not have the plague! What really helps us in this context is decency and honesty, as the famous Nobel Prize winner Albert
CAMUS already expressed in his wonderful book „The Plague“. We want to make sure that the ACU, the Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee, is based on honesty and transparency.
