Palestinian MP from Jerusalem, Ahmed Attoun, mentioned yesterday that Israeli occupation forces are waging an open conflict within the holy metropolis in an effort to erase its Arabic and Islamic heritage, Assabeel newspaper reported.
In an announcement, Attoun mentioned that the hazard of the Israeli measures in Jerusalem is that “it’s finishing up a demographic conflict aimed toward reducing the variety of Palestinians within the metropolis and changing them with settlers.”
In line with Attoun, the Israeli occupation is “racing” to demolish properties, “expropriating lands and constructing new settlement blocs.”
For Israel “it’s the finest time to hold out its plans laid down since 1967,” noting that Israel’s dream for the reason that occupation of the town is to rid it of its Arab residents in an effort to obtain a Jewish majority.
“However to this point, Israel has failed to realize this purpose,” he mentioned, stressing that “Jerusalemites will stay of their land as a result of they recognise the essence of the battle with the Israeli occupation.”
For the reason that unlawful Israeli occupation of East Jerusalem in 1967, Israel has demolished greater than 2,000 Palestinian properties, and constructed tens of hundreds of settlement items for unlawful Jewish settlers.
