Tugger Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Yes they ARE binding. They are just not enforceable. By acceding to the UN Treaty Israel agreed to abide by decisions of the UN Security Council. Chapter 6 resolutions are decisions of the Security Council, but unlike Chapter 7 resolutions they have no enforcement mechanism. There is a legal difference between "binding" and "enforceable", but Rog is too ignorant to know it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tugger Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Nope, only Chapter 7 resolutions are ENFORCEABLE. Just because you don't understand the distinction, that doesn't mean the distinction doesn't exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
