Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets with President-elect Donald Trump at Trump's residence in Trump Tower.

Trump</a>)</div> </div> <div class="post-wrap"> <div class="post-content entry-content">  <p class="subtitle">Why in an allegedly free country has President Trump imposed censorship that protects Israel from accountability?</p>  <p><span class='et-dropcap'>I</span>n Israel’s treatment of Occupied Palestine, Israel has been violating international law for decades. Under international law, an occupying power is not permitted to incorporate the occupied land into its own domain. However, Israel has persistently done so, evicting Palestinians from their homes, villages, and farmlands in order to build apartments for Jewish immigrants.</p> <p>As people learned of the fate suffered by Palestinians at Israel’s hands, criticism of Israel’s policy toward Palestinians by human rights activists grew, and boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movements arose.</p> <p>These developments are inconvenient for Israel. Israeli media have indicated that the Israeli government is ready to complete the annexation of Palestine by evicting the remaining Palestinians and incorporating the remaining Palestinian land into Israel. Prior to taking this step, Israel wants to silence critics and prevent BDS action.</p> <p>In the US the Israel Lobby has attempted to have the Anti-Semitism Awareness Act, the Israel Anti-Boycott Act, and the Strengthening America’s Security in the Middle East Act passed. However, these acts clearly violate Constitutionally-protected free speech and protest, and Congress, although happy to please the Israel Lobby, doesn’t want to pass acts that the Supreme Court will obviously overturn. The ACLU opposes these acts on First Amendment grounds.</p> <div class="content-sidebar"><h2> </h2></div><p>So the Israel Lobby has turned to Donald Trump to achieve by executive order what they have not achieved by legislation.</p> <p>As the Israel Lobby has succeeded in equating criticism of Israeli government policies with anti-Semitism or hatred of Jews, Trump’s executive order against anti-Semitism permits the US government to cut off money to universities and organizations in which criticism of Israel is expressed in lectures, colloquiums, or debates.</p> <p>Trump’s executive order has initiated a debate whether Trump has in effect declared Jews to be a nationality. (See, for example, <a href="https://www.unz.com/pgiraldi/trump-creates-a-new-nation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> and <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg/newsfromunderground/IuhQIQZgu_w/3M3-kW-1BwAJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.)</p> <p>This is the wrong debate. The issue is why should Israel be the only country among the approximately 200 on earth whose policies cannot be criticized? Why should Israel be the only country that cannot be sanctioned and boycotted? Why should this special protection be given to Israel at the expense of the US Constitution.</p> <p>Trump’s executive order silences the Palestinians and those sympathetic to their dispossession. Why in an allegedly free country has President Trump imposed censorship that protects Israel from accountability?</p> <p>It would seem that this is a far more serious offense by Trump against the US Constitution than the allegations behind the impeachment inquiry.</p> <p>Allegedly Trump represents the little people against the Establishment, but how are powerless people protected by overturning their First Amendment rights? They hardly have a voice as it is.</p> <p>As Stephen Lendman <a href="https://stephenlendman.org/2019/12/uk-tories-intend-anti-bds-legislation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports</a>, Israel being all powerful, is pushing also the British government to protect Israel from accountability to international law.</p> <p><em>This article was originally published at </em><a href="https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PaulCraigRoberts.org</a>.</p> </div> </div> <div class="post-footer"> <div class="social-icons ed-social-share-icons"> <p class="share-title">Share:</p> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/&t=Trump%20Has%20Given%20Israel%20Immunity%20to%20International%20Law" class="social-share-link" title="Share "Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" via Facebook" data-network-name="facebook" data-share-title="Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" data-share-url="https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/"> <span class="et-extra-icon et-extra-icon-facebook et-extra-icon-background-hover" ></span> </a><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Trump%20Has%20Given%20Israel%20Immunity%20to%20International%20Law%20https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/" class="social-share-link" title="Share "Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" via Twitter" data-network-name="twitter" data-share-title="Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" data-share-url="https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/"> <span class="et-extra-icon et-extra-icon-twitter et-extra-icon-background-hover" ></span> </a><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/&title=Trump%20Has%20Given%20Israel%20Immunity%20to%20International%20Law" class="social-share-link" title="Share "Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" via LinkedIn" data-network-name="linkedin" data-share-title="Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" data-share-url="https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/"> <span class="et-extra-icon et-extra-icon-linkedin et-extra-icon-background-hover" ></span> </a><a href="#" class="social-share-link" title="Share "Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" via Email" data-network-name="basic_email" data-share-title="Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" data-share-url="https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/"> <span class="et-extra-icon et-extra-icon-basic_email et-extra-icon-background-hover" ></span> </a><a href="#" class="social-share-link" title="Share "Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" via Print" data-network-name="basic_print" data-share-title="Trump Has Given Israel Immunity to International Law" data-share-url="https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/12/18/trump-has-given-israel-immunity-to-international-law/"> <span class="et-extra-icon et-extra-icon-basic_print et-extra-icon-background-hover" ></span> </a> </div> <div class="rating-stars"> <p id="rate-title" class="rate-title">Rate:</p><div id="rating-stars"></div><input type="hidden" id="post_id" value="42088" /> </div> <style type="text/css" id="rating-stars"> .post-footer .rating-stars #rated-stars img.star-on, .post-footer .rating-stars #rating-stars img.star-on { background-color: #dd9933;
