The leader of Intersociety group, Emeka Umeagbalasi, stated this to newsmen in Owerri, while reacting to the series of bombardment that followed since the battle started.
According to Umeagbalasi “The International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law is in strong solidarity with Right of the State and People of Israel to defend themselves against any internal and external aggression particularly their collective right to self-defend themselves and their properties such as territories, homes and public institutions and facilities at all times.
“The attacks which mowed down not less than 1,400 Israelis including 286 soldiers and other nationals including 31 Americans and terminally injured 3,400 defenseless Israelis and others are unspeakably reprehensible and nothing short of a replication of the cannibalistic and barbaric era of the ‘Saladin of Egypt’ during which POWs and ‘enemy children’, captured from the third Crusade were dismembered and fried like bean-cakes.
“The rising civilian casualties and property destructions in the City of Gaza are totally unacceptable and strongly condemned. They are also nothing short of ‘reprisal radicalism and crudity’ perpetrated outside the confines of ‘military necessity’ and a clear breach of the “Geneva Conventions of August 12, 1949 and its 1977 Protocols which the State of Israel must have ratified as a ‘49th Member-State of the United Nations on May 12, 1949’.
“The Geneva Conventions had also in 1977 received additional two “Protocols 1 and 11” for purpose of strengthening the protection of civilian and property victims of the International Armed Conflict and Non-International Armed Conflict and placement of limits on the way wars are fought.
