Renanah and Joe Gemeiner Standing Up for Israel;
Local Couple Takes Action
Doris Strub Epstein
Encouraged by their UNESCO win, the Palestinian Authority is bulldozing ahead in the UN and in other international forums,
to achieve recognition of legal statehood and to delegitimize the
State of Israel. While the historical and religious rights of the Jewish people are relatively well known,most are abysmally ignorant of the legal rights to the area known as the land of Palestine.But a local couple, Israeli born business man Joe Gemeiner and his wife Renanah, are determined to block further attempts by PA to achieve their goal, by appealing to the Canadian government through a private member's bill or the
like, on the grounds that the UN is violating international law and
indeed its own charter by giving the PA sovereignty recognition.
They are demanding that the UN – the world's policeman-
respect the law, particularly its own charter, which states that all
rights emanating from Mandates do not expire. "Since the UN
already approved the Mandate for Palestine, thus agreeing to give this land to the Jewish people, it cannot give it to someone else," they say.They quote Articles 2, 6 and 11 of the Palestine Mandate giving Jews the right to settle everywhere from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River, including Judea, Samaria and Gaza. Article 5 prohibits the ceding of any of this land to any foreign power. The Mandate for Palestine is a legal document – League of Nations 1922- enshrined in international law and valid to this day. It was subsequently endorsed by unanimous resolutions of both Houses of the Congress of the United States, the President of the US and thus become US law. The Gemeiners are proposing that the Canadian government take the lead in the UN and in the world in opposing the unilateral PA bids for statehood recognition which would contravene Article 80 of the UN Charter. They pointed out that in l947, the UN knocked out the Arab challenge to Jewish rights to the land of Israel, stating "There would seem to be no grounds for questioning the validity of the Mandate for the reason
advanced by the Arab states," in the Report by the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine.The purpose of the Report was
to respond to the Arab argument that the Mandate for Palestine was
illegal. The Report stated: "There would seem to be no grounds for questioning the validity of the Mandate for the reason advanced
by the Arab states. The terms of the Mandate for Palestine, formulated by the Supreme Council of the Principal Allied Powers as part of the settlement of the First World War, were subsequently approved and confirmed by the Council of the League of Nations." Article 80 of the UN Charter confirms the rights accorded to the Jews under the Mandate."We can't just stand by and watch the injustice being done by the subversion of law of the UN and world," said Joe. "The creation of a Palestinian State on their terms
would be suicidal for Israel." Renanah added, "We can't wait –
individuals must come forward." She is co-founder of Mothers for
MIA (Missing in Action) working on behalf of Israel's captive soldiers
and Secretary of the Toronto Zionist Council.
Using as a base, the work of international lawyers, Jacques
Gauthier and Howard Grief, they have prepared a proposal for
the Canada -Israel committee in Ottawa.Key points: oppose any action in the UN which seeks to upgrade the status of the PA in the areas know as Gaza, Judea and Samaria, (the "West Bank") on the grounds that such action is illegal according to international law. Illegal because the legal rights to that land have already been given to the Jewish People worldwide.Withdraw funding from the UN
if it supports any action to upgrade the status of the PA. Stop all Canadian moneys going to the Arabs in Gaza, Judea and
Samaria if it is revealed there are ties, direct or indirect, to the support of terrorism. This would include Canadian money going to UNWRA or any other organizations." The Principle Allied Powers in San Remo ensured in law that the Jewish people had the rights to
settle everywhere from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean and
that no land of Palestine be ceded to foreign powers. Article 80 of the UN"s own charter ensures that these rights remain in full force
and effect. By contravening its own charter, the UN removes the
foundation on which it is built - to prevent wars and to base the world on justice rather than the might of the sword. For the world to
survive, justice must survive," Joe declared.
