Israel has already Judaised 95% of Jerusalem

MEMO | May 30, 2017

The head of the Islamic and Christian Committee in Jerusalem has stressed the importance of international watchdog reports which condemn Israeli policies in the city, Qudsnet News reported on Monday. Hanna Naser noted that Israel’s occupation authorities have already Judaised 95 per cent of Jerusalem.

“Crimes are not subject to a statute of limitations based on UN treaties,” he pointed out. Israel’s crimes are intended to eradicate the presence of indigenous Jerusalemites in their own city. Although Israel is colonising East Jerusalem with Jewish settlers, said Naser, the demographic balance is in favour of the Palestinians.

He gave details of a number of the Israeli Judaisation projects, including a railway and subway that connect Jewish areas to Al-Buraq (the “Western”) Wall adjoining Al-Aqsa Mosque. He also pointed out that almost $10 million has been allocated to Judaising infrastructure in the Old City.

Commenting on Human Rights Watch’s report that there are 90,000 Palestinians in East Jerusalem living in unlicensed homes, Naser told Qudsnet that this proves that the organisation is angry with the fake Israeli pretext used to justify the refusals of licence applications made by Palestinians. At least 12 international laws and conventions, he pointed out, ban the policy of home demolitions as adopted by Israel, including the Declaration of Human Rights.

On a related issue, Naser revealed that the Israeli foreign ministry has issued a statement to Israeli embassies worldwide claiming that its settlements across the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, are “legitimate and legal”. He also revealed that there is a Jewish tourist attraction being built beneath Al-Aqsa Mosque which is due to open in 2020 with the aim of attracting 6 million visitors a year. A number of fake tombs — almost 10,000 — have been created around the mosque area, he added.

  2. Sadly, this good/needed report is not surprising. The Zionists have wordfared, warfared, lawfared and otherwise lied, connived and brutalized their way to dominance and control that are overlooked or actively countenanced by too much of the world. May Zionism’s demise be imminent…it had better be, else its agents and acolytes will have truly made hewers of wood and carriers of water for all of the rest of homo sapiens.

    I grieve for the Palestinians, 24-7.

    (Hmmmm — this statement — “Although Israel is colonising East Jerusalem with Jewish settlers, said Naser, the demographic balance is in favour of the Palestinians.” — seems incongruous within the context of the narrative. The Zionists could change the “demographics” with one opportunistic spasm of their genocidal proclivities (one must, after all, never neglect to reflect on the collective psychosis of the entire colonial-based ideology). They have, e.g., long been changing the geographic realities of Jerusalem by expanding boundaries here, gerrymandering there, etc., so as to maximize Jews’ presence and minimize Palestinians’. A mass slaughter or determinedly final forced expulsion — with accustomed impunity, natch — doesn’t seem far-fetched at all from my vantage point of decades-long horrified observation and anguish….)
