LETTER FROM THE AGENT OF ISRAEL TO THE REGISTRAR

OF THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE . 

I have the honour to submit for consideration of the Court the Application instituting proceedings for Summary Judgment with regard to Israel’s alleged violations of Article 49 of the Geneva Convention (Israel v. Palestinian Authority).  Understanding that the Palestinian Authority is not a recognized member state within the United Nations, Israel hereby seeks recognition of Israel’s sovereignty over the areas of Judea and Samaria through this summary judgment motion.  In the event that this Court cannot make such a judgment over the non-member state of the Palestinian Authority, Israel hereby requests an Official Advisory Opinion be issued in lieu of such Summary Judgment.

(Signed) Kirsten Dunn,
Agent for the Nation of Israel
