Geachte lezers,
Naar aanleiding van de tussen de zionistische troepen en de Palestijnen [met steun van enkele
Palestijnse vluchtelingen werd vastgelegd.
Letterlijk stond daarover vermeld:
“Resolves that the refugees wishing to return to their homes and live at peace with their neighbours should be permitted to do so at the earliest practicable date, and that compensation should be paid for the property of those choosing not to return and for loss of or damage to property which, under principles of international law or in equity, should be made good by the Governments or authorities responsible;”
Het kader waarin het was gegoten, een VN Algemene Vergaderingsresolutie, houdt in, dat het, in tegenstelling
tot een VN Veiligheidsraadsresolutie, geen bindend karakter heeft.
Toch gaat er wel degelijk bindende rechtskracht vanuit

AV RESOLUTIE 194 [III], 11 DECEMBER 1948, Palestine — Progress Report of the
United Nations Mediator
RECHT OP TERUGKEER PALESTIJNSE VLUCHTELINGEN
”No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of the right to enter his own country.”
ARTIKEL 12, 4, INTERNATIONAL COVENANT ON CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS
[BUPO VERDRAG]
”Individual or mass forcible transfers, as well as deportations of protected persons from occupied territory to the territory of the Occupying Power or to that of any other country, occupied or not, are prohibited, regardless of their motive.”
ARTIKEL 49, 4E CONVENTIE VAN GENEVE
”” “It is … undeniable that no settlement can be just and complete if recognition is not accorded to the right of the Arab refugee to return to the home from which he has been dislodged by the hazards and strategy of the armed conflict between Arabs and Jews in Palestine. The majority of these refugees have come from territory which … was to be included in the Jewish State. The exodus of Palestinian Arabs resulted from panic created by fighting in their communities, by rumours concerning real or alleged acts of terrorism, or expulsion. It would be an offence against the principles of elemental justice if these innocent victims of the conflict were denied the right to return to their homes while Jewish immigrants flow into Palestine, and, indeed, at least offer the threat of permanent replacement of the Arab refugees who have been rooted in the land for centuries.”

VN ALGEMENE VERGADERINGSRESOLUTIE 194 [111] EN HET INTERNATIONAAL RECHT
VN AV resolutie 194 [1] heeft wel degelijk een geldende rechtskracht, NIET als AV resolutie
an sich, maar omdat het principe van het terugkeerrecht van vluchtelingen wordt onderschreven in het
Internationaal Recht.
Belangrijk daarbij is te vermelden, dat op het moment van aanname van 194 reeds bekend was, dat de vluchtelingen grotendeels [naast vluchten vanwege de paniek van de door de zionisten gevoerde vuile
oorlog in 1948] verdreven waren.
