11. Nope

It could be argued that Israel is in breach of the convention... or even that the location of the University is illegal. But not it's existence.

If I park my car in a handicap space, I might be in violation of the law and you could say that the car is not permitted to be there. That doesn't make the car itself illegal... and when you scratch the car and your parents force you to pay for it - they aren't declaring that it was legal for me to park there - only that it was illegal for you to take action to punish its location. The university has moved previously and could move again - it's existence is not delegitimized by it's current location.

Are you with the Trump supporters that basic services should be denied to "illegal aliens"? If someone steals from one of them, does the court punishing the criminal amount to "tacit approval" of their being in the country?


If the division between the illegal settlements and Israel becomes blurred, it will be impossible to remove the settlements, and if they're not removed, there will be no place for a Palestinian state.

That's nonsense. As has been pointed out more than once, most peace plans include the majority of settlers staying where they are and land being swapped. Official Palestinian positions disagree on the total percentage of land to be swapped or the relative value of the land that they are offered... but they agree on the basics.
