‼️🚨🚨‼️🧵(1) Risk Analysis:The Actual Gaza ISF Draft Resolution Under CHAPTER VII of the UN Charter! "ENFORCEMENT force and NOT a peacekeeping force," precisely as anticipated in my earlier analysis, see the link below👇🏼
Behind this technical phrasing lies a far-reaching legal transformations:
🛑In a nutshell: The draft resolution basically TRANSFORM Gaza into an EXTRATERRITORIAL zone GOVERNED by a A SUPRA - UNSC Entity (Parallel Security Council for Gaza) a CONSORTIUM of SETTLER-COLONIAL states with NO external ACCOUNTABILITY and OVERSIGHT.
🚨The draft CONSTITUTES a structural COUP within international law: It TRANSFORMS Gaza from a SUBJECT of international PROTECTION into an OBJECT of international MANAGEMENT. It LEGALIZES aggression and Genocide, INSTITUTIONALIZES impunity, and dissolves the distinction between GENOCIDE, SECURITY, SELF-DETERMINATION, and SELF-DEFENSE.
♦️Taken together, the resolution, according to a copy obtained by Axios major powers seek UN approval for Gaza ISF and Board of Peace with two-year mandate (Renewable):
1️⃣ SUBORDINATES the UNSC to a body (SUPRA - UNSC Entity) DOMINATED by permanent veto power members (ISRAEL’S ALLIES)
🟥The draft empowers a “Board of Peace” to command the ISF “under unified command acceptable to the Board,” granting it authority that in practice surpasses the UN Security Council itself. With no oversight or compliance mechanism. And with Israel’s allies able to veto any future UNSC review, no decision of this Board could ever be revoked or restrained. The arrangement likely violates Articles 24 of the UN Charter, which vest exclusive responsibility for international peace and security in the UNSC.
2️⃣LEGITIMIZES Israel’s territorial gains and genocidal acts under humanitarian and security pretexts leading to the Erosion of Israel’s Accountability and the OVERRIDE of the ICJ’s Order!
🔴The draft assigns Israel (the genocide perpetrator and the very party found by the @CIJ_ICJ in its last order of May 2024 to have failed to establish humanitarian corridors/zones) a mandate to secure Gaza’s borders and “protect civilians.” This converts a perpetrator into a protector and nullifies the ICJ’s binding order, which found Israel’s measures insufficient to mitigate the “immense risk” to Palestinians. How a State found in non-compliance with a binding ICJ Order is now delegated by the UNSC the same functions it failed to perform in conformity with international law.
🔴The resolution’s silence on Gaza’s borders, coupled with language about “humanitarian corridors,” effectively legalizes Israel’s territorial control up to the so-called Yellow Line. Territorial ambiguity becomes a tool of annexation.
3️⃣DISMANTLES Palestinian SELF-DETERMINATION & sovereignty and INSTITUTIONALIZE Custodianship
4️⃣CREATES a PRECEDENT for PRIVITIZED international administration, a “peaceboard” model replacing the UN Charter’s collective security system and UNSC mandate!
🛑The Board of Peace is granted a mandate through 2027 (extendable) “to govern Gaza and provide security,” supervising a “technocratic, apolitical Palestinian committee.” This arrangement DISMANTLES Palestinian sovereignty, RELEGATING Palestinians to administrators of humanitarian dependency while the Board CONTROLS governance, demilitarization, reconstruction, and funding!
🛑The Board’s power to ban UN and humanitarian organizations accused of “aid misuse” grants it a mandate HIGHER than that of the UN itself, creating a precedent where a sub-UN body can POLICE UN agencies.
5️⃣CRIMINALIZE Palestinian RESISTANCE and Labeling resistance as terrorists by demilitarizing them rather than demilitarizing the genocide perpetrator!
🔴By defining the ISF’s role as “demilitarizing the Gaza Strip and destroying military, terror, and offensive infrastructure,” the draft relabels lawful resistance as terrorism, erasing the Palestinian right to self-determination under Intl. Law & UNGA Res. and reframing the genocide as counter-terrorism.

‼️🚨‼️ (2) Any amendment to the current draft would be merely cosmetic, its core legal architecture remains fundamentally flawed. The only viable path to safeguard international law and prevent irreversible consequences is to redraft the resolution from the ground up in full conformity with the UN Charter and the binding orders of the @CIJ_ICJ
