PM Imran on moral bankruptcy of India, Israel leaders: 'Don't people feel outraged?'

Prime Minister Imran Khan added that in order to remain in power, leaders of India and Israel often defy international laws, the resolutions of United Nations Security Council (UNSC), and even their own constitutions, specifically highlighting the atrocities in Indian occupied Kashmir and Israel's occupied West Bank.

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Tuesday, expressing his opinion on the moral bankruptcy of leaders in India and Israel, wondered if the people of these countries feel outraged at the length to which their leaders can go to win the elections.

Taking to Twitter, PM Imran wrote:

"When leaders in Israel & India show a moral bankruptcy in their readiness to annex occupied West Bank & IOK in defiance of international law, UNSC resolutions & their own Constitution for votes, don't their people feel a sense of outrage & wonder how far they will go simply to win an election?”

He added that in order to remain in power these leaders often defy international laws, the resolutions of United Nations Security Council (UNSC), and even their own constitutions, specifically highlighting the atrocities in Indian occupied Kashmir and Israel's occupied West Bank.

Israel is heading to polls today to see if the premier Benjamin Netanyahu will be securing a fifth term in the office.

On the other hand, India will vote from Thursday until May 19, which will decide if Narendra Modi will run the country for another five years. Modi's main rival is opposition leader Rahul Gandhi.

India & Israel on the whole (as nations) are morally corrupt.

Why is USA supporting them? shouldn't USA be called same morally corrupt? It seems if you have power you can do anything even against humanity, and no one there to ask you a question, we are really living in a pathetic world.

I don't understand what's good of UNSC resolutions?

It is unfortunate that the gov't of Pakistan has been using its power to conflate the Kashmir and Israel situations. They are quite different in origin and nature:

The Mandate of Palestine was established by the League of Nations after WWI for the express purpose of designating a specific region of the middle east as the Jewish "National Home" and specifically encouraging "close settlement" of Jews within - and that includes the West Bank, and under Article 80 of its charter the UN is forbidden to revoke it (because the administrating Brits - Palestine was not their colony - had unfairly done exactly that earlier, slicing off 70% of the Mandate to create what illegally became no-Jews Transjordan.)

Kashmir, however, was a decolonization effort by the Brits where the UN stepped in after the Partition violence with a proposed solution in UNSCR 47. So Israel can show it is acting legally; the same grounds don't apply to India.

So the real question is, why does the Pakistani gov't play with your emotions like this? Why does it exert its power to endorse a fake parallel, hammering in the notion that justice is nowhere to be found in this world?

First of all welcome back, we personally don't have any problem with Jewish people, Jewish people should have land to live peacefully. But why Israel is occupying more land? Don't you people have enough land to live peacefully? So why still occupying golan heights?

Israel clearly violating UNSC resolutions.

UNSCR 242 grants Israel the right to live within secure borders and I'm not sure that anyone believes that without the Golan Israelis can live peacefully. Furthermore, as it's a long-accepted U.N. principle that aggressors who lose wars are to be punished by losing territory (think Germany) calling for Israel to return ALL the territory it acquired in the Six-Day War ranks as antisemitism: discriminating against Israel simply because it's the Jewish state.

Israel clearly violating UNSC resolutions.

In pretty much every Israel-critical resolution - certainly the most damning ones - the UNSC has exercised its power beyond its authority. (We can take it Resolution-by-Resolution if you wish.) That's tyrannical. So it's the U.N. that has to be condemned here, not Israel.
