Add this to another International Law broken by Israel

In the latest to add to the long list of International laws broken by Israel you can add The collection of prisoner's DNA samples for a police database,  the information is then transferred to army and intelligence services for the State.


It has gotten so bad that PA lawyers have filed a complaint with Israel's Supreme Court to demand the end of forced DNA tests for Palestinians jailed by Israel.


What's the basis of the complaint?  Palestinian prisoners should not be included in a 2011 Israeli legal amendment which permits DNA tests on criminal detainees on specific grounds, as under international law they should be treated as political detainees.  Further, international conventions state prisoners must be asked and express consent for DNA testing, but Israeli doctors have taken samples from Palestinian detainees without informing them of their purpose. 


The UN General Assembly’s resolution 37/194 on Principles of Medical Ethics: "It is a contravention of medical ethics for health personnel, particularly physicians to be involved in any professional relationship with prisoners or detainees the purpose of which is not solely evaluate, protect or improve their physical and mental health." 
You can see that in  Article 13 of the 1949 Third Geneva Convention on treatment of prisoners of war, citing: "Any unlawful act or omission by the Detaining Power causing death or seriously endangering the health of a prisoner of war in its custody is prohibited, and will be regarded as a serious breach of the present Convention."


There are some thousands and thousands of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel and many of them have not even been charged with anything. Women and even children are being held hostage while the United Nations does nothing really, but say words that mean nothing without action.

    Israel's "claim" to Palestine is based entirely on War Crimes and GENOCIDE.
    It is UNFAIR and WRONG to compare Israel to the Nazis.
    The CORRECT comparison is Nazis to Israelis:
    The Nazis copied the Jewish "Manual" point by point
    KILL THE SICK and CRIPPLED
    Numbers c.5 v.2-4
    KILL HOMOSEXUALS
    Leviticus c.20 v.13 well, really the whole chapter
    KILL ALL DISSIDENTS:
    Exodus c.32 v.27
    Numbers c.11 v.1-2
    Numbers c.16 all
    Numbers c.21 v.5-6
    Numbers v.26 v.10
    KILL anyone who engages in "DIVERSITY" or "INTEGRATION"
    Numbers v25 v.4-8
    Deuteronomy c.14 v.2
    DEHUMANIZE and then EXTERMINATE ALL NON-MEMBERS:
    Numbers c.21 v.03 Canaanites
    Numbers c.21 v.24 Amorites
    Numbers c.21 v.33-35 Bashan
    Numbers c.31 all Midianites
    Numbers c.32 v. more Amorites
    Deuteronomy c.2 v.34 People of Heshbon
    Deuteronomy c.3 v.6 really the whole chapter. threescore cities
    Joshua c.12 A list of victims of Israeli GENOCIDE
    Where are THEIR "holocaust" Memorials!
    OCCUPY YOUR VICTIM'S DWELLINGS/LAND
    Numbers c.21 v.25
    Numbers c.32 v.39
    Numbers c.33 v.53
    (just to name a FEW)
    GENOCIDE CODIFIED IN THEIR RELIGION
    Numbers c.33 v.31-34
    Deuteronomy c.7 v.2
    Deuteronomy c.12 v.28-30
    Deuteronomy c.20 v.11-16
    TERRORISM CODIFIED IN THEIR RELIGION
    Deuteronomy c.2 v.2
    Deuteronomy c.7 v.1
    Jews SELF-anointed "The CHOSEN People of GOD"
    Nazis SELF-anointed "The GENETICALLY CHOSEN People of God".
    And even TODAY:
    April 10, 2008 "All of the Palestinians must be killed; men, women, infants, and even their beasts." This was the religious opinion issued one week ago by Rabbi Yisrael Rosen, director of the Tsomet Institute, a long-established religious institute attended by students and soldiers in the Israeli settlements of the West Bank.
