The Lawfare Project's Anti-Democratic Agenda http://mostlywater.org/lawfare_projects_antidemocratic_agenda
Fact Check Israel and America are democracies in name only, granting rights to the privileged, not the majority, and in Israel solely to Jews. International law permits self-defense against violence or armed attacks. Terrorism is committed by the perpetrators. Lawfare's anti-democratic issues include: Claim: The illegitimacy of "legal limits" in fighting "terrorism."
Fact Check Most serious is institutionalized state terrorism, including premeditated wars and targeted assassinations, criminal acts under international law, permitting self-defense against them.Claim: No international law restricts nations from acting within or outside their territory.
Fact Check-Universally accepted international laws place clear and unequivocal limits, calling violations crimes of war and against humanity.Claim: An international tribunal has no authority to hold sovereign states accountable. Fact Check-International law created a tribunal as a legal entity to prosecute individuals for crimes of war, against humanity, and genocide in cases when guilty states fail to do so.
Claim: There are legitimate and illegitimate criticisms of religion. Fact Check-Criticism is one thing. Vilifying one religion in defense of another is clearly indefensible. Further, international laws strictly prohibit persecuting, killing, or otherwise harming persons of other faiths, practices Israel and America repeatedly commit.Claim: Lawfare uses its own definition of inciting violence.Fact Check-LP calls self-defense violence and terrorism, premeditated aggression self-defense, including against innocent civilians.
