Foreign Ministry: ongoing Israeli crimes try to obliterate conflict political nature
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates on Monday condemned the endless Israeli violations and crimes, the settlers’ attacks, and organizations, and consider it attempts to obliterate the political nature of the conflict.
It said in a press statement, Foreign Affairs noted the ongoing looting, dredging, and allocation of the Occupied Palestinian Territory in favor of expanding illegal settlement, which is repeated daily, as what happened to the 22 dunums of Al-Jaba ‘a land in Bethlehem.
Or the escalation of Palestinian citizens’ houses demolitions, and facilities as what happened in Beit Djan and Farush Beit Djin in Nablus, and in Khirbat Ainoun east of the Tubas, or about the ongoing settlers’ attacks against Palestinian citizens and their vehicles and their placement on a line of racist slogans, as appeared in the Zarqa Bridge.
It emphasized that the occupation deliberately made these violent attacks by escalating its repression of Palestinian citizens and firing the hands of organized and armed settler militias to commit further attacks on Palestinian civilians safe in their homes, fields, and streets along with the West Bank.
It added that the occupation deliberately increases the level of military concern in the conflict arena to give the international community the impression that the problem with the occupation is military security rather than political, in a purely racist manner, settlers’ security and expansionist colonial projects are placed above all consideration.
While the occupation does not pay attention to the security of Palestinian citizens who are subjected on a daily basis to their attacks. Rather, they are the ones who oversee their institutions and official arms over these attacks and settlement projects, but Palestinians pay a heavy price for these consequences.
According to the statement, “The Israeli Government, headed by Naftali Bint, has taken full responsibility for the violations and crimes of its forces and settlers against our people and their threats on the location of the conflict and any confidence-building steps, and for the possibilities of fixing the political horizon for a two-State solution”.
It concluded, “our people are not only victims of the ongoing Israeli occupation and settlement, but also victims of double standards and failures of the United Nations Security Council to bear its legal and moral responsibilities towards our people’s suffering and the resolution”.
