The International Court of Justice (ICJ) decision issued last Friday constitutes, from a legal perspective, a great victory for the Palestinian people and an unprecedented and stinging blow to Israel and its fascist government.
All controversy regarding the nature of the situation in the occupied Palestinian territories (OPT) – which has been confirmed to include the entirety of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip – has been laid to rest, with these territories unambiguously declared to be unlawfully occupied by Israel.
They are not recognised as Jewish territory, as Netanyahu claims, nor as \"disputed\" territory, as the Israeli Labor Party and other Zionist parties claim.
The ICJ decision also confirmed the applicability of the Fourth Geneva Convention to the OPT, which Israel has always denied is relevant in this case.
Moreover, it clarified that the settlements are unlawful, and all of them must be removed. Not only this, but the Palestinians must be compensated for the harm inflicted on them throughout the occupation\'s duration – for all land seized, every home demolished, and every violation perpetrated.
