Some of us might not know that there is actually International Law which is aimed to regulate the conduct of the International Community. However, the International law is weak in terms of its enforcement. This is because the International law is lacking of effective enforcement machinery.
Even so, it has to be borne in mind that there is one body namely Security Council which has the power to enforce the International law amongst the International community. The UN Charter confers the power to the Security Council to maintain the International law.
At this point, we may be happy to know that there is actually a body which is entrusted with such great responsibilities. Unfortunately, there are 5 big nations which have Veto Power to veto the decision made by the Security Council.
Further, the abstention and absence of these 5 States to vote would also amount to the so called “veto”. Hence, if the Security Council intends to pass a Resolution, the votes from these 5 big nations are needed. Or else, the Resolution will not be passed.
Looking at the present situation, country like Libya has proposed to the Security Council to pass Resolution to restrain further incursion by Israel.
However, the Resolution was vetoed by the United States. Due to this, the attack is still continuing up till today because the attempt made by the Security Council was failed by the United States.
So, as a conscious human being, what would you do in order to stop the United States from supporting the inhumane Israelis?
Apparently, we are not being capable of helping them there physically. The least that we can do is not to buy the products from the United States. To put it in a simple term, boycott.
The Government cannot really help on this due to the political reasons. However, the citizens can absolutely work this out. Some might argue that, if I myself were to boycott it alone, it won’t work. But I say, we can.
We have to unite, to go against the big nations who misused their powers. We have to try our best to boycott their products, and hopefully, that will turn their economy down. At last, that will put pressure on them (the States) not to give further support to the Israel.
I Pray that the situation in Gaza will stop very soon. So that the peace will be brought back to Palestine. Do justice to them. They are human just like us. Have a sense of humanity, oh Israelis.

allahuakbar..
most welcome babe.
yeah...
alhamdulillah, we are aware of it.
thanx for reading.
It's hard to say thou coz boycotting it is not the only resolution to end this..but hence,it's worth trying then...-L
well, that's not really my point "L". what i meant is that, we need to do something in order to stop the States from supporting Israel. =)
p/s--> hopefully, u'll try your best to boycott the US products
Assalamualaikum salam kenal singgah..harap2 memboikot itu dpat menghentikan keganasan israel kat palestin..amin
w'salam.
Hi afiq...
yeah...i pun harap ia dapat dihentikan dgn serta merta.

it's heartbreaking, reprehensible and loatheable of what those black-hearted human-masked-devils have done to them. i see no point of learning international law. certainly it should be viewed through a long term period that we might end up empowering the weak and ineffective instrument that we have today.
but the whole point is that, it's not the future that we care about, for the delay of actions that ought to be taken instantly will destroy that palestinian soil, hence making it barren and uninhabitable with the anticipation that israel would conquer it soon, and remake the land as theirs.
today's international administration MUST take immediate action at once! and for us, i agreed with fiqo. since the power is not with us, we can always create one, boycott them and they will feel it because the power of consumers often heats up their seats.
credits for u fiqo.
bibah--> besides that, we need another big power which can turn the US down. That is the reason why, the Muslims should unite instead of figthing with each other.
Thanx for your view dear. Appreciate that very much.
Boycott will not effect them heavily but at least its a small effort by showing we are dissent the incursion. what can we do after all? own and drop Phosphorous Bomb like Israelis is not an option of course. just my 2 cents.
Daniel
yup2...
i agree wit u...
yes, daniel.
that's exactly my point. that's the least that we can do to help our muslims brothers in Palestine. & the non-muslims should do something about this. It's a clear infringement of human rights.
adiey--> i would appreciate if you could give your opinions too. btw, thanx a lot for your agreement =)
boycotting them, to my money, will affect them, especially their economy.it's not boycotting in the sense of the literal meaning of the word but boycott them through transactions, consumerism, money. i must not say it will affect heavily, but it will. why? because what we are boycotting are those US-based products with which only money can buy them. mind me, i am not an expert in economy, but always money played an enormous role, thus affects us badly, either the effects are for good or bad. the economy meltdown affects me, affects u all, affects the globe. soon, it will worsen,we might never know. with this in mind, how i see fiqo's idea is that by boycotting their products, we won't remit money into their accounts and subsequently make them paralyse. doesn't this sound so easy? i am not the expert again but something like this outcome that i mean to say. unity then, will be the next crucial question to be asked, whether we are really up to boycott them or not?
and it's very true that we can't have our own bombs that we could just give hands to palestine, fly off to the airspace of israel and simply drop the bombs. certainly not like that. but never we question "what can we do?" because the connotation suggests negative thought altogether. like fiqo always said, for something new, we must start somewhere. so, with our limited power, if not all, boycott will be one of the methods to stop them.
i must remind myself here also, that i may not be the fanatic participant that will go down the street and campaign against israel, and boycott, and instill hatred and stuff like that, but with what fiqo has put down at this very entry, it's encouraged if we could discuss this thoroughly and gather each other's piece of mind about what is happening. perhaps someone might come out with brilliant idea, to do something within our strength and capacity.
maybe we can't do jihad as what they did for the love of their nation,for our patriotism is not as steel as theirs, but to the very least we converse and deliberate here. people read, people think, people comment, and people may act.
sorry fiqo, it's like an entry already.but i aprreciate this post so much.
i've read some other blogger post pasal this issue. sedih tgk gambar2 2. tapi ramai dari kita pun buat endah x endah kan? so, kite yang perasan pasal keadaan nie, kene la start. jadi contoh. peace!
peace to all...:D
bibah--> just to let you know, i'm very happy that you're being concerned over the matters. i'm proud to have a friend like you, who can share your thoughts with us, here. It's okay if your comment is as lengthy as an entry, as long as it has good messages to give. thanx buddy.
biteme--> yes...i agree with you. kita yg sedar ne, kene la bantu kawan2 kita yg x sedar pasal isu2 semasa macam ne. and i believe, i've done my litle part, which is to campaign against the US products and to tell the readers about what we can do through my blog. whether they want to follow or not, it's totally at your own discretion. You decide =)
Somename--> Restore peace, Do Justice, World Happy ;)
