They were wrong.
We saw it during the Flytilla: other self-proclaimed human rights activists similarly made up international law, claiming that they had a legal right to enter Israel and the country had no right to stop them.
They were wrong too.
And now once again we see international law being distorted once again.
The Palestine Telegraph has an exclusive: A flotilla of Palestinian Refugees to return to Palestine, “Israel”:
After many attempts of sending Boats of aid to Gaza, solidarity with Palestinians seemed to grow to the peak. A controversial plan has been set by 9 European groups, 1 in Canada and 2 in the US to send Passenger boats boarded by huge number of Palestinian Refugees to their homes in occupied Palestine known as “Israel”
Well-informed sources told the Palestine Telegraph that a fund has been allocated for the purpose of the activity. The sources refused to release their identities in order not to damage the plans. They pledge that they will go to public soon and introduce themselves and their ideas. The groups are already active in their positions.
Activists will name the Flotilla as, “Ship your luggage, Return to Palestine”.
About the mechanism of the event, organizers refused to release extra information as it will only benefit Israel to bring the plans down. The organizers said that they are considering hiring a private passenger jet which accommodates scores of Palestinian Refugees.
The boats will carry Palestinian Refugees of dual citizenships from Europe, US and Middle East. Boats or airplanes will carry a combination of those refugees with European activists, MPs, journalists and activists.
The unique aim of the plan is the direction. The ultimate direction is not Gaza and not breaking the siege as in every time. However, it will be Israeli sea ports of Haifa and Ashkelon.
Activist, A. D added that the refugees will implement the Right of Return as stated through International law.
“We are the soul of the International community. We indeed the International community not the governments which support Israel. We will try to implement resolution 194 which has to do with the Right of Return. We are not doing any illegal work. We will use all legal and lawful methods in doing so. The whole world is to recognise Palestine in September. Our step will be a complementary tool for that declaration.” Said A.D
Heaven help the international community if these people are its soul.
As I wrote last week, Palestinian Have No Legal 'Right' Of Return And Israel Should Stop Pretending They Do.. As far as resolution 194 is concerned, as a resolution by the General Assembly, that resolution has nothing to do with international law and in no way in legally binding.
There are other reasons why the Arab claim of a legal right of return is a complete fraud, as outlined in my post.
Of course, there is also a common sense reason why Arab refugees today have no legal right of return--they are not refugees:
In international law, with the exception of Palestinian Arabs, refugee status is not heritable. The descendants of refugees are not not refugees. This status is only claimed by the Palestinian Arabs.
It is past time for the Arabs to make up self-serving distortions of international law, demanding special treatment that is accorded to no other refugees in the world.
Let's face it: this purposeful and malicious twisting of international law has no other purpose than to destabilize Israel.
The real international community should take note of that fact and put an end to this travesty once and for all.

Not going to happen.
Israel will have to actively defend its national sovereignty.
