Israel seeking change of demography in West Bank: Pundit
The United Nations has announced that the Israeli regime has displaced 1,569 Palestinians since the beginning of 2016 as a result of its settlement construction policy in occupied lands of Palestine. Meanwhile, UN Special coordinator for the so-called Middle East Peace Process Nickolay Mladenov has called on Israeli politicians to oppose a settlement bill, which allows the regime to construct 4,000 illegal units for its settlers.
Mick Napier, an activist with the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign, told Press TV’s Top 5 that the Zionist regime is following the policy of ethnic-cleansing to establish a “Jewish-only” community in the West Bank, Jordan Valley and other areas.
“The Tel Aviv regime is trying to shift the demographic balance in the West Bank to minimize the number of Palestinians and maximize the number of Jews,” Napier said on Wednesday.
There is a policy of “destruction of Palestinian homes alongside a massive program of building Jewish-only communities” to make it possible for the Zionist regime to establish an “apartheid community” in the occupied territories, he stated.
“The demolition of Palestinian houses is a deliberate policy of Israeli military to make live painful,” he argued.
The activist also said, “Every single week since 1948, land [in occupied territories] has passed from Palestinian ownership to exclusively [Zionist] ownership that means it’s illegal to be sold back to the original Palestinian owners.”
In 1948, Palestinians owned 94 percent of their land and the Zionists owned only six percent of the Palestinian lands “by fraud and by force,” but that ratio has been reversed as a result of the Zionists’ expansionist policies, Napier noted.
More than half a million Israelis live in over 230 illegal settlements built since the 1967 Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and East Jerusalem al-Quds.
