Israel’s siege of Palestinian rights extends to love

Even love cannot be saved. this Israeli occupation secretly enters into relations with Palestinians, putting more obstacles. When Israeli authorities announced earlier this month any foreign person who falls in love with a Palestinian West Bank should notify the ministry There was confusion in the Israeli Defense. Between the escalating violence in the occupied territories – the deadliest year since 2016, nearly 140 Palestinians have died at the hands of the Israeli Army – and the approval of new settlements, the violation of Palestinian rights extends to their private lives.

Faced with controversy, Israel had no choice but to step back. The controversial request for foreigners to report on their romantic ties to Palestinians was withdrawn, along with quotas for foreign university professors and students who could study at Palestinian universities. Palestinian Prime Minister Mohamed Shtayyeh called these “racist measures”. Tom Nides, the US ambassador to Israel, said he was “aggressively engaged” with the Israeli government to pull them back, but was “concerned about the protocols being published”. Yet they stayed strict restrictions Foreign wives of Palestinians.

“How to love regular”

Persons married to Palestinians in the occupied West Bank are entitled to short-term visits only and may be required to deposit up to 70,000 shekels, up to about 20,000 euros, to guarantee their departure. These measures encourage family separation and contribute to the global abandonment of Palestinian society, this time also in the field of love. “This is the demographic engineering of Palestinian society and its isolation from the outside worldHe denounced Jessica Montell, the managing director of the Israeli nonprofit HaMoked, which filed a lawsuit in the Israeli Supreme Court against the regulations.

“Regulating who and how people can love for being Palestinian makes it harder for those who deny the existence of apartheid in Palestine; That’s cruel,” international law expert Mark Kersten tweeted. The rest of the measures will take effect on October 20. Meanwhile, on the streets of Palestine, the population is divided between funerals and laments With almost daily assassinations of the Israeli Army. Almost every morning, Palestinian society wakes up missing a member in their ranks.

More than 140 Palestinians were killed

Since the beginning of the year, Israeli forces have killed more than 140 Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Deadliest year for Palestinians Jenin, the historical cradle of the Palestinian resistance, is the place where the funerals do not end. Since January, 34 Palestinians have been killed in this northern city. From there, it was exactly two Palestinians who were killed Wednesday morning after clashes broke out at a checkpoint in the West Bank. An Israeli soldier was also killed in the conflict.

“We watch with great concern the systematic escalation of Israel and we will pursue this crime before the International Criminal Court and the UN Human Rights Council,” the Palestinian Foreign Ministry said. The incessant attacks by Israeli forces are the cause of their death. But some Palestinians are trying to reciprocate. have in the last few weeks Multiple attacks on buses In the main cities of the occupied territories, such as Ramallah or East Jerusalem, and around settler settlements in the West Bank. Last week, Israel published the results of its investigation into the May 11 murder of Palestinian Al Jazeera journalist Shirin Abu Aqleh. recognized An Israeli soldier “accidentally” killed him “highly likely”.

Following these statements, Israel’s major ally, the United States, urged its partner to review the rules of its conflict practices in the occupied West Bank to avoid incidents like Abu Akle. “no one can dictate our rules of engagementIn the first rift between major allies, Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid replied, “while we are the ones fighting for our lives.” This admission of guilt that he was also a US national in the murder of the reporter was not conveyed in the opening of a criminal investigation against the soldier who was going to kill him.

2,000 Palestinians at risk of deportation

Israel knows once again that it is with impunity. Meanwhile, Abu Aqleh’s compatriots are not at ease. Last week, construction of 3,412 homes was approved in two new settler settlements south of occupied East Jerusalem. More than 2,000 Palestinians from Bedouin communities will be deported from the Palestinian neighborhood of Beit Safafa. Muayyad Shaaban, spokesperson for the Palestine Liberation Organization’s (PLO) monitoring commission, condemned this situation.forced relocation” as a ‘war crime’.

“These plans will thus transform Palestinian villages into settlements besieged by colonies to consolidate the so-called ‘Greater Jerusalem’ and force a demographic shift in the area in favor of the settler population.” According to humanitarian organizations, Israel’s colonial expansion and harsh restrictions on foreigners visiting Palestine are another mechanism of the apartheid system that the occupying power imposes on the occupied people. Under apartheid neither love nor land is saved.
