Israel to displace 1,550 Palestinians to build park in Jerusalem

MEMO | March 18, 2021

More than 100 Palestinian homes face demolition and about 1,550 residents, including more than 800 children, will be made homeless at the hands of Israel’s Jerusalem Municipality, Arab48 reported yesterday.

This comes as the Israeli municipality cancelled all agreements with the Palestinian residents of the Silwan neighbourhood.

According to Arab48, the Israeli municipality rejected plans it had requested as an alternative to the demolition of the Palestinian homes, instead it is set to demolish the Palestinian homes and turn the area into The King’s Garden, claiming that it was a garden for Israeli kings thousands of years ago.

The municipality had agreed to provide Palestinians with land in other areas to build new homes, but it suddenly backtracked on this decision.

The legal battle has cost the Palestinian community more than $500,000.

Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said in a statement that the “massive destruction and displacement operation against the population may amount to ethnic cleansing and a war crime.”

  1. Another act of sheer Bastardry by Israel against the Palestinians. Call me an anti -Semite if you like(I couldn’t care less), but Facts are facts!

  2. Sigh. Deja vu multiplied a myriad times.

    That the Zionist terror unit so-called Israel is able to take these unconscionable acts exposes the utter hypocrisy-cum-futility of dealing with a (collective) psychotic criminal. The criminal is in charge of the asylum, dear readers.

    Fraud! Everything about Zionist history and archaeology is made up out of whole cloth. The current ethnic cleansing operation is part of the Disneyfication of Jerusalem for the entertainment of American tourists. The suffering of some goyim, as always, doesn’t matter.

    • Good comment! I would only suggest this addition to your “…entertainment of American tourists”: “preponderantly of the ‘Christian’ Zionist stripe.”
