Shtayyeh calls on the world to stop Israeli "apartheid" crimes

Today, Monday, Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh called on the world to take all necessary measures to stop the Israeli crimes of "apartheid" against the Palestinian people.


In his speech at the beginning of the government session in Ramallah, Shtayyeh said, "The apartheid regime in Israel is not only a practice, but Israel has enacted many laws that serve its racist regime, whether it is the national law or something else."


He pointed out that the world did not need to hear the statement of the Israeli Minister Itamar Ben Gvir in order to be convinced and ascertained of the racist ideas that shape the thought and behavior of those who today assume the reins of power in the occupying state.


Shtayyeh said: "What Ben Gvir and all the pillars of the Israeli government are doing in terms of racist practices that embrace the doctrine of killing, arson, erasure and genocide, are enough for the world to stop dealing with this government, condemn its practices and activate international laws calling for boycotting it, and providing protection for the Palestinian people from that." criminal practices.


He added, "The apartheid regime imposed by the Israeli government makes the Palestinian consume 72 liters of water and the Israeli consume 430 liters, and that there are buses that Palestinians are forbidden to ride, and that there are buildings in which Palestinians are forbidden to rent an apartment, and that Jews have the right to build anywhere." While the Palestinian is prevented from building on his land, and his house is even demolished.


Shtayyeh continued, "Israel claims that some Jews owned some homes in Palestine before 1948," and what about the thousands of homes owned by Palestinians that still exist to this day? What about the seized lands? What about the books and antiquities that were stolen? What about the apartheid wall that separates the Palestinian from the other Palestinian? Who made the Palestinian live in bantustans and outposts isolated from each other? What about preventing the Palestinian from accessing his land in order to impoverish him and turn him into a cheap labor force in the Israeli labor market, and push him outside his land to seize it later? What about the fragmentation of the Palestinian lands: Gaza is isolated and divided, a white area, a yellow area, Hebron is divided H2 H1, Jerusalem is surrounded by a wall, and the rest of the lands of Palestine are divided?


Shtayyeh stressed that this fragmentation creates a torn legal, administrative and economic system, and he said: "Above all of this, the reunification of Palestinian families is prevented. This is the height of criminality and racism, and we, on our part, put this before international platforms and institutions and confront it on the ground, and the world must prevent its companies from participating." any colonial practice on our land.


He pointed out that the cabinet will discuss security and financial reports today, the greening of Palestine program, strengthening the steadfastness of the people of Al-Walaja village, renewing the Internet for all Palestinian schools, publishing the Convention for the Prevention of Torture, energy, water and school projects, and other files.
