Israeli house demolition campagin continued unabated

September 18, 2003
in Demolition
Israeli house demolition campagin continued unabated

 

Introduction

The Israeli occupation forces demolished 20 Palestinian houses and other structures in the occupied city of Jerusalem during the month of August, 2003. This number is considered the largest ever since April 2003, when the Israeli forces destroyed 26 houses taking advantage of the on going war against Iraq.

At the same time, the Israeli occupation forces continue their undeterred and destructive war against the Palestinian people elsewhere in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. Most of the aforementioned destruction operations took place during the truce time announced by all Palestinian parties. So, while Israeli artillery and tank fire were somehow silent under the ceasefire agreement in the West bank and Gaza, Israeli bulldozers were very active in destroying Palestinian houses and premises in the occupied city of Jerusalem and the surrounding areas in a flagrant violation of the agreement. Israeli feeble pretexts in this regard have become widely known to the Palestinian community and the whole International community. They include: illegal building, construction of bypass roads, green zones, security reasons, allegedly wanted people and martyrs.

The actual reason behind the on going merciless destruction campaigns is the racist ideological doctrine of creating a '' pure Jewish state'', a policy deeply rooted in the minds of the extremist Zionist circles currently ruling Israel.
