Israel ignores Geneva Convention in Gaza
IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Tehran, Jan 10, IRNA -- Israel is ignoring the Geneva Convention and war laws by barring mass media from news coverage. It launched the Gaza assault to pursue scorched earth policy in Gaza, when international organizations were on Christmas holidays.
However, the Zionist regime did not realize its ambitions and the public worldwide reacted strongly to the Zionist regime's atrocities in Gaza.
Zionist leaders perpetrated war crimes in Gaza violating international law. Since the start of the attacks in Gaza, some 800 lives have been lost, of which 280 were children.
Israeli leaders committed crimes against humanity by conducting massive air strikes on Gaza. What they have done in Gaza is a shame on humanity which will never be forgotten by the nations.
The horrific brutality of Israel against civilians have triggered international outrage and shocked the world.
On December 10, 1948, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, at Palais de Chaillot in Paris, France.
According to the Article One of the Declaration all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
Meanwhile the Article Two of the Declaration indicates that everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.
Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty.
As per the Declaration of Human Rights all the human beings should be prohibited from every kind of discriminations.
On the contrary, the Zionist regime's inhuman actions have endangered world peace and security.
Meanwhile, the Article Three of the Declaration indicates that everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person, while such rights are totally breached by the Zionist regime.
The Zionist regime's slaughter in Gaza imply that this regime is not interested in establishing order in the region.
