was there a legal basis for the creation of israel?
Find answers to your legal question.





was there a legal basis for the creation of israel?

I know the General assembly voted as a majority recommending the UNSCOP recommendations. And that Israel Unilaterally declared independence, annexing 70% of palestinan owned land to form israel.
But was there any legal basis for this. Could the UN Securit Council have given someone elses land to someone else

Britain controlled the area since WW1, they are the ones that did it...its amazing that they decided to invent a country where people lived, and deliberately EXCLUDED one WHOLE group from the negotiations..then when they created the country, they were shocked that the people they excluded were unhappy with this

The same legal basis that they had for colonialism. Interesting question though, it was the first time in modern history that a Religious document was used within a court of law as proof of something...so sad.

David, I think I would be ok with not being as technically advanced is it meant that Israel would not exist. Is human suffering ok as long as it produces advances in technology? You must have a very low value for human life and dignity.

International law essentially allows any group to claim independence on the basis of sovereign rights. Provided you can hold your land, you have a right to form your own country. The previous owners have the right to defend it.

The right of conquest and the right to independence far predate the UN.
