11. The manner in which Isr@eli practices and policies are implemented impact legality of Isr@eli occupation. Considering all the foregoing (in thread above)- and that Isr@el is not entitled to sovereignty in the OPT, and that Palestinian self determination is an inalienable right- renders Isr@eli occupation illegal.
12. Despite this illegality, the illegal Isr@eli occupation is bound by IL in its *obligations* to ( serve and protect) Palestinians and to *end* all illegal acts in the OPT. It must stop all settlement activity, provide all reparations (restitution, compensation, and satisfaction) and repeal all laws discriminating agst Palestinians.
-And must evacuate all settlers in the OPT and allow all Palestinians to return to their original places of residence.

Consider how #ICJ today relates to and impacts
1. Gaza, generally.
Also, n.b. many Palestinians being genocided in Gaza were exiled from the territory discussed today.
2. *all* states and organizations - including *but not limited to* UN organizations - who are obliged to both A. Not recognize B. Not support the belligerent illegal Isr@eli occupation.
Who/what entities this will include and look like is up to the world and to Palestinians - not just the UNGA.
3. Reparations. Elaborated as reparations, restitution, and satisfaction, aside from and after land-back.
4. Had ALL governments, not just the Isr@eli government, obeyed international law before/by Oct 7, where would Palestinians be now? Certainly not under genocide
5. Remember, this was always the law. There is no reason for any state or agency to have waited this long to act/not act vav Isr@eli occupation.

Today, the #ICJ re-affirmed the Palestinian right to return, land-back, restitution, reparations, *and* satisfaction,
ie all four remedies together not as alternatives - for Palestinians in and from the OPT.
This is the beginning, as this right is inalienable and enshrined for ALL Palestinians, including the majority of our people languishing in the refugee camps and in exile!

From legal interpretation, an alternative view:
1. what is not addressed, ie 1948-1967, is not adjudged;
2. The precedent reaffirming return alongside reparations, restitution, and satisfaction, speaks positively to 1948-1967
