Israel is racing against time to Judaize what remains of Jerusalem

The occupying state does not sleep for a single minute in order to definitively Judaize the city of East Jerusalem, after annexing it following the occupation of 1967, as well as following former US President Trump’s recognition that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, disregarding all international laws and norms that confirm that the city is occupied and that all Israeli measures... The city is illegal and against international resolutions.

In order to complete the procedures for full Judaization, it was announced yesterday that the Israeli Planning and Construction Committee will discuss tomorrow, Monday, the establishment of two new settlements in East Jerusalem, one of which is located in the southern part of the city next to the “Givat Hamatos” settlement and includes residential complexes (3,500 units) and hotels (1,300). ) Chamber and commercial and labor areas.

As for the second settlement, it will be established in the Ras al-Amoud neighborhood in Silwan, the Chiyah area, and it includes 384 settlement housing units and is called “Kedmat Zion.” The goal is to accelerate the procedures for Judaizing the entire city.

The acceleration process came under the current Israeli government, which is considered the most right-wing, extremist, and racist in the history of successive Israeli governments, but it is also the most revealing of the reality of the occupying state that aims to annex, expand, and increase the number of settlements and settlers, not only in East Jerusalem, but in all parts of the West Bank, considering According to their claims, the West Bank is Jewish land, and the Jews have the right to build settlements and increase the number of settlers there.

In addition to this, there is the Israelization of education and the replacement of the Palestinian curriculum in the city with the Israeli curriculum, which distorts the Palestinian, Arab, Islamic and Christian facts and history in Jerusalem.

The occupying state threatened schools that would continue to teach the Palestinian curriculum that they would be closed and their permits would not be renewed, in addition to confiscating Palestinian curriculum books and distributing the Israeli curriculum to schools in a new precedent and in a struggle against time to Judaize the city.

In addition, there are demolition operations in full swing, especially in Silwan, Anata, Sur Baher, Al-Mukaber, and all areas of Jerusalem, to force the people to emigrate out of the city or out of the country, in the context of a process of ethnic cleansing that has been disclosed by more than one minister and Israeli official, that the goal of each The occupation measures in Jerusalem are to transform it into what is happening in Jaffa, meaning to keep the number of Jerusalemites not exceeding 20% of the population and 80% of the Jews.

There are also attacks on citizens, which include killing, arrest, injury, and disability, in addition to the taxes imposed on merchants to force them to close their stores as a prelude to seizing them. Houses have also been seized in the Old City and outside it under various allegations, and the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood is the best evidence and witness to that.

In light of these measures and plans in full swing, what are we doing to confront this? What are the measures taken at the level of the leadership and all the factions? Issuing statements of denunciation and denunciation have become worthless, and the occupying state does not pay any attention to them. However, instead of uniting ranks to defend Jerusalem, we see the division still existing, and even deepening to the point where it may reach, if not He had not reached the point of separation.

Jerusalem is not for the Jerusalemites alone to defend, but rather for all Arabs, Muslims and Christians in all parts of the world, so where is everyone to protect the city and to Judaize and Israelize it?!!
