“What we are witnessing in the Gaza Strip now amounts to flagrant violations of international law,” he said.
Martin stressed the need for the violence in Gaza to end, adding that his country demands an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the safe and unhindered entry of humanitarian aid.
The population of Gaza, especially in the Gaza and northern governorates, is on the verge of famine in light of the severe scarcity of food, water, medicine and fuel supplies.
One tactic the Local Councils use to assist the tyranny of private land-lords is to have disputed properties declared “unfit for habitation” – and begin eviction and/or demolition procedures. Once tenants (or even “Owners”) are out of the properties – quite often the Local Council hands back the property to the Landlord and STOP all punitive action – as if the condemned buildings have suddenly repaired themselves! I know this because it happened to my parents – who live in Torquay. The rule of law only matters when the Local Authorities want us to do something – the rule of law is quietly ignored when it clashes with the corrupt will of the rich!
The statement said the occupation is implementing a long-term plan to plunder surface and groundwater resources and use them as a means of blackmail against the Palestinians.
The Arab League said that these actions constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity in accordance with international law and humanitarian norms, adding that the deliberate destruction of infrastructure in Gaza has affected most of the facilities and infrastructure.
It revealed that the percentage of potable water available today to the population does not exceed more than 15 percent of what it was before the aggression, which is considered a death sentence for hundreds of thousands.
When Fet-Mats entered the Mine during 1677 CE, presumably there were other workers operating the lowering mechanism. This being the case, when Fet-Mats fell – the accompanying workers should have a) reported the accident, and b) the Mining Authorities should have made a verifiable (written) record of the accident and the fact that Fet-Mats was missing. A record that could have been referenced forty-two years later – when his body was found. This did not happen. Instead, two witnesses provided evidence during the 1719 CE hearing – giving two contradictory dates six-months apart – spanning (the Autumn and Spring) of 1676-1677 CE. The dates are close enough to be suggestive of being correct – but why was there no official record of Fet-Mats going missing at the time the event occurred?
Hakka people – who are originally from Central and Northern China perform the ‘Phoenix’ Dance. A Chinese Phoenix looks like a Dragon (with different and darker colouring) – but has a central horn (like a Unicorn) on its forehead. Where this idea comes from no one is sure – but there is a rumour that Hakka people are a mixture of Han Chinese and the invading European ‘Hunnish’ Tribes that plagued the Northern borders of China thousands of years ago! The Hakka (Guest People) are responsible for the Qin and Han Dynasties and have spent their time migrating forever Southward over the centuries (bringing their Northern language, culture and martial arts with them).
Considering how important the concept of the ‘Dragon’ is throughout Chinese culture – I was surprised just how haphazard the construction of its representing ideogram actually is. As this is my area of academic expertise, I could not believe what I was looking at! Consequently, it took me three-days to disentangle the mess that this ideogram seems to have gotten itself into. Having achieved this objective – I then unloaded the finished article onto the Qianfeng Daoist website I help to administer.
