That's nit-picking, including your link (which uses frequenty the word Palestine or Palestinian, words that are hardly found in the genuine texts). Every country has comparable laws. Even yours: section 51(xxxi) of the Australian Constitution permits the Commonwealth Parliament to make laws with respect to "the acquisition of property on just terms from any State or person for any purpose in respect of which the Parliament has power to make laws."
Did it ever occur to you that the Law quoted was an International law and only concerns countries of occupation. I realise that you make every effort to not understand the facts, your pathetic and childlike attempts at excusing the Zionists are due to stoop to a new level it seems? If that's the best you can do I think it's time I stopped bothering with you, your "logic" is not worthy of an answer.
Rule of law is enforced by the court NOT by the people. Try reclaiming in court the property you sold! You never learned something about how rule of law works, did you?
Ah,... so we're back to the circular argument again eh? Read my answer, and also my last answer to this same repeated question, my answer wasn't about "law" it was about your statement (As I said last time). Also, I have never mentioned land sold prior to and during the British mandate, so I've got no idea what you are on about. This has been quite deliberate, as my Gt Grandfather was one of those purchasers,... in 1852. He lived peacefully among his Palestinian neighbours and it was not until the arrival of the Zionist troublemakers that many of our family migrated back to England or Australia. They suffered no terrorism, not even a harsh word, I wonder what turned these peaceful people into your so called "terrorists".
It is a religious conflict.
Israel must leave because it is build in Muslim ground.
Circular argument,... again, coupled with another childish attempt at distortion of the facts. The truth being nearer, "Israel must leave because it occupies
Palestinian ground". The term Palestinian includes Muslims, Christians, Druze and even some Jews.
Jews bought land in the Ottoman Empire and the British mandate : legal
UN split up the region they controlled : legal False: The UN has no legal mandate to just give away land belonging to another people.
Arabs attacked a souvereign country (Israel) : illegal Arabs mounted a justifiable defence against an illegal occupation. Admitted by Jews.
Jews fought back : legal Already answered (Israellawresource) The Nazis tried that excuse with Oradour-sur-Glane.
Foreigners cannot buy land in Israel : legal Illegal when they happen to be the legal owners of the land.
Jews cannot buy land in Palestine : Illegal (if they stated foreigners it was legal)Name me one country that sells land to it's enemy in time of war.
militias fighting in civilian clothes : illegal Tell it to the Stern Gang etc
firing unguided rockets at civilian towns : illegal This was admitted by members of the IDF to have been bought about by deliberate provocation on Israel's behalf. What about, deliberate starvation, destruction of civil infrastructure, daily harassment, curfews, beatings, gratuitous murder, denial of medical and other humanitarian aid, the targeting of civilian areas with guided weapons and phosphorus shells?
expelled and fled Palestinians plus descendants : refugees (The 1951-1967 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees does not mention "descendants") : legal or illegal?
expelled and fled Africans (not descendants) : refugees : legal
expelled and fled Jews : not refugees : illegal
I have no idea what you are talking about here, the convention does not specifically mention Presbyterians either but that in no way says that they are not covered under it's intent. Virtually all of this has already been disproven,... except in the eyes of Israeli law (most of which is illegal in itself). Consult Israellawresource. (Yes I know, it uses the word "Palestinian", and is therefore not genuine to you):wink: However on this occasion I'll settle for the fact that the rest of the world is quite happy with it.

Today's tidbit and answer the original poster's question.
“Zionist land policy was incorporated in the Constitution of the Jewish Agency for Palestine...’land is to be acquired as Jewish property and..the title to the lands acquired is to be taken in the name of the Jewish National Fund, to the end that the same shall be held as the inalienable property of the Jewish people.’ The provision goes to stipulate that ‘the Agency shall promote agricultural colonization based on Jewish labor’...
The effect of this Zionist colonization policy on the Arabs was that land acquired by Jews became extra-territorialized. It ceased to be land from which the Arabs could ever hope to gain any advantage...
“The Zionists made no secret of their intentions, for as early as 1921, Dr. Eder, a member of the Zionist Commission, boldly told the Court of Inquiry, ‘there can be only one National Home in Palestine, and that a Jewish one, and no equality in the partnership between Jews and Arabs, but a Jewish preponderance as soon as the numbers of the race are sufficiently increased.’ He then asked that only Jews should be allowed to bear arms.”
Sami Hadawi, “Bitter Harvest.”
