Haaretz reported today that illegal Israeli settlers expelled at least 14 Palestinian families in the Deir Alla village in the southern West Bank. The settlers set fire to buildings, assaulted residents, vandalized homes, and threatened to burn down homes unless the residents left.
The Israeli military routinely allows illegal Israeli settlers to carry out these pogroms against the indigenous population of Palestine because the Israeli regime wants to expel as many Palestinians as possible to facilitate eventual Israeli annexation of the West Bank.
Haaretz explained, “Human rights groups and international organizations have reported widespread harassment, land grabs and forced displacement of Palestianians, particularly in Area C, where Israel maintains complete civil and military control.”
The Times of Israel reported that the Knesset voted this week on a non-binding resolution in favor of annexation of the West Bank. The resolution calls for Israel to “apply Israeli sovereignty, law, judgment and administration to all the areas of Jewish settlement of all kinds in Judea, Samaria and the Jordan Valley.”
Ethnic cleansing and apartheid are violations of international law. However, Israel’s racist, fascist, and Kahanist regime could not care less about international law or the rights of the indigenous population of Palestine.
The Israeli regime is able to violate international law in the West Bank because the United States national-security state enthusiastically supports whatever Israel decides to do to the indigenous population of Palestine.
