- Arab/Muslim communities in Europe are invited to carry out actions in front of Israeli embassies as well as the UN to draw an attention to what's going on. The European Union must be also pressured (to) freeze its relations with Israel due to its constant human rights violations."
On April 4, the Palestinian Center for Human Rights (PCHR) urged challenging Israel in the International Criminal Court (ICC).
It called on PA leaders to "fulfill their responsibilities in ensuring justice and redress for Palestinian victims of violations of international humanitarian and human rights law."
Israel's legal system spurns justice. Palestinians get no redress. International help is their only option. Justice is long denied. Ratifying the Rome Statute is essential. Doing so permits holding Israeli officials accountable.
Occupation harshness terrorizes Palestinians. Conditions get worse, not better. Their fundamental rights are denied.
"PCHR recognises that the ICC is the principle independent body" able to act on their behalf. Step one is signing and ratifying the Rome Statute.
Next comes lodging a declaration with the Court's Registrar. It's done under Article 11(2) and 12(3). It accepts the Court's jurisdiction.
PCHR also urges other nations to support Palestinian rights. They're able to through the well-established universal jurisdiction principle (UJ).
