Reply #41: Pardon the intrusion but 242 states land cannot be acquired by war

[tootrueleft]

Therefore the people shot dead were killed by troops operating on foreign soil.

The whole quotation of 242 from the part you may be referring is:

"The Security Council,

Expressing its continuing concern with the grave situation in the Middle East,

Emphasizing the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war and the need to work for a just and lasting peace in which every State in the area can live in security"

Quoting the whole sentence puts things in perspective.
