[QUOTE="Jones, post: 169128, member: 4805"] None of those sources supported your contention that International Law contains preconditions for ending an occupation. There's a good reason for that. Read for yourself: [URL='https://web.archive.org/web/20090723082024/http://www.unhchr.ch/html/menu3/b/92.htm']Geneva Conventions[/URL] [URL='http://avalon.law.yale.edu/subject_menus/lawwar.asp']Hague Conventions[/URL] Note what they are not charged with, ie, meeting any preconditions before ending the occupation. As long as they are there, they have to meet their obligations under International Law governing an occupation. But they can leave whenever they want. Slowly, ever so slowly, you learn what the rest of the world already knows. I'm proud of you, I know it's not easy for you :). The Palestinian government is functioning at about the same level as the current Iraqi government, ie, they are both on the brink of civil war. If we leave Iraq, it becomes the Iraqi's problem in much the same way that if Israel leaves the West Bank, the problems there become the Palestinian's problems. International Law sets no preconditions for ending either occupation.
