Israel imposes ‘discrimination’ on Palestine: Amnesty | War-Israel-Palestine News

Israel is committing “racism against Palestinian people” and should be held accountable, Amnesty International said in a new report.

Published Tuesday, a 25-page report by a leading independent group describes how Israeli authorities promote a system of oppression and oppression in Palestine.

His malicious investigation cites a number of Israeli atrocities, including massive occupation of Palestinian land and propertyillegal killings, forced evictions, strict travel restrictions, leadership closure and the rejection of the state and the citizens of Palestine.

It describes these as components of a system that is similar to discrimination under international law.

“The plan is upheld and violates Amnesty International’s find that discrimination is a crime against humanity,” the group said.

Since its inception in 1948, Israel has followed a policy of establishing and maintaining a “large Jewish population,” the report said. Israel also uses all its power over land and resources to benefit Jewish Israel, including its own unauthorized villages.

After the 1967 war, when Israeli forces occupied the entire Palestinian state, Israel “extended the policy” to the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. round deformity since 2007.

Today, all Israeli-controlled territories continue to be controlled by “the goal of benefiting Israeli Jews from destroying Palestine, while Palestinian refugees continue to be deported”, a London group said.

“Our report shows the state of racism in Israel. Whether they live in Gaza, East Jerusalem and the West Bank, or in Israel, the Palestinians are considered inferior and deprived of their rights, ”said Amnesty secretary-general Agnes Callamard.

“We have found that the Israeli policy of racism, xenophobia and discrimination in all areas under its jurisdiction is tantamount to racism. The international community has a responsibility to act,” Callamard added.

Israel needs to ‘eliminate discrimination’

Amnesty has called on the UN Security Council to establish all arms embargoes in Israel, as well as “sanctions imposed on it, such as the suspension of property, by Israeli officials most affected by apartheid”.

Israel has strongly rejected the sign of “discrimination” in the past.

But Amnesty’s report follows a the same point was reached by Human Rights Watch from the US, which released the report (PDF) in April last year which found Israel committing “crimes against humanitarian discrimination and torture” in Palestine.

Similarly, the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem published a survey in January 2021 that found that the Palestinian people – divided into four oppressed groups – were he was denied the right to self-determination.

Amnesty said The illegal killing of protesters in Palestine in Gaza is probably “a clear picture of how Israeli authorities use restrictions to maintain order”.

It refers to the period between 2018 and 2019 when Palestinian people in Gaza staged weekly demonstrations on the Israeli border barrier, calling for the return of refugees and the end of blocking.

Demonstrations of the Great March of Return were marred by violence by Israeli soldiers, who fired tear gas canisters, rubber bullets and live ammunition, especially by terrorists. By the time the protests came to a close at the end of 2019, Israeli forces had killed at least 214 Palestinians, including 46 children, According to UN agency.

“The international response to apartheid should not be merely idle criticism and fair treatment,” Callamard said.

“Israel must end the apartheid system and begin to treat Palestinians as citizens with equal rights and dignity.”
