Root context has been a well-known concept. I did a search on root
context (and on root-context). It is not defined. It is mention in Annex
S of X.501 (Part 2), an annex added in the fifth edition and in X.519
(Part 5) in the conformance clause.
Any explanation?
Implicit assumption that everyone knew what it was. This now needs to be
explicitly stated

Saying that Israel is justified in assaulting Palestine because of
Hamas' rockets is like saying the UK should have bombed Belfast when
the IRA was active. http://stopwar.org.uk/
