Israeli Squatter-Settlers in Palestinian West Bank Expanding at Fastest Rate in History, as they attack Indigenous Towns by Mohammed Samaana, The National (UAE), April 23, 2024 Informed Comment (Juan Cole), April 23 https://www.juancole.com/2024/04/palestinian-expanding-indigenous.html . . . While the world’s influential governments are allowing Israel to carry on with its genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, the same governments are turning a blind eye to Zionist colonization and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians in the West Bank. Alas the Palestine Authority of Mahmoud Abbas and all the Palestinian factions in the West Bank are spectators, watching as if they are neutral without even attempting to organize an effective non-violent campaign to boycott Israeli products. If things continue as they are now, it is only a matter of time before the West Bank will face an ethnic cleansing similar to what happened in the 1948 Nakbah. #. #. #
What is Israel’s bulldozer strategy in the occupied West Bank? https://www.aljazeera.com/program/newsfeed/2024/4/24/what-is-israels-bulldozer-strategy-in-the-occupied-west-bank Three days under fire: Palestinians in Tulkarem describe the ‘most violent’ Israeli raid in years “This isn’t the first time that the occupation raided Nur Shams," camp resident Baraa al-Ghoul told Mondoweiss, "but this time it was different because the occupation forces used unprecedented violence." by Qassam Muaddi, Mondoweiss, April 24, 2024 https://mondoweiss.net/2024/04/three-days-under-fire-palestinians-in-tulkarem-describe-the-most-violent-israeli-raid-in-years/ West Bank Pogrom 'Underscores Urgent Need to Dismantle Apartheid': Amnesty "The appalling spike in settler violence against Palestinians in recent days is part of a decades long state-backed campaign to dispossess, displace, and oppress Palestinians in the occupied West Bank," said one Amnesty official. by Brett Wilkins, Common Dreams, April 22, 2024 https://www.commondreams.org/news/israeli-settler-attacks-west-bank Amnesty International said Monday that the ongoing surge in deadly violence by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the West Bank "underscores [the] urgent need to dismantle apartheid" in the illegally occupied Palestinian territories. For more than a week now, Israeli settlers have been attacking West Bank Palestinians in towns and villages including Al-Mughayir, Duma, Deir Dibwan, Beitin, and Aqraba, killing at least four people including a child; wounding dozens of others; and destroying homes, vehicles, and other property. Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops have either stood and watched or participated in the settler attacks, which the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem and others are calling a "pogrom." . . . "Establishing Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories flagrantly violates international law and constitutes a war crime," Morayef added. "Violence is integral to the establishment and expansion of these settlements and to sustaining apartheid. It's time for the world to recognize this and pressure Israeli authorities to abide by international law by immediately halting settlement expansion and removing all existing settlements." . . . -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
