Summary:Yaqub ibn Yusuf Proprietor of Olam Qatan Books at the First Station, Jerusalem Sion's review Neville Teller's review of Abraham Sion's To Whom Was the Promised Land promised (February 7) does not explain why world opinion considers Israel to be in violation of Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention (FGC), since the FGC specifically states that it refers to territory that legitimately belongs to another country. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), a private Swiss organization and official "guardian" of the FGC, decided arbitrarily that Judea, Samaria and eastern Jerusalem (the West Bank) was "occupied Palestinian territory (OPT)," and that Israel's presence there violated the FGC and was therefore "illegal." [...]one among them bound her life to his To fight for him, for Israel, for justice, Living in squalor that she might be near The place where he was held, unwearying In her appeals to all who might take action On his behalf - and teaching, strengthening him, Feeding his spirit with her faith in G-d, Her love of Torah, Israel, and the land Promised to them.
