10:36 am
not been properly assessed by the courts we dealing with the domestic legal. system it rejects and denies international humanitarian law. should be applied to. the families legal battle has been constrained by the limits of israel which israel seeks to apply here in occupied east jerusalem but there is another legal argument based on international law and israel's obligations as an occupying power an argument that requires political pressure somehow has come. from campaign groups and diplomats in recent weeks britain's mission to the palestinians tweeting out this video statement the restitution and planning rules here and their implementation are unfair and they breach israel's obligations as an occupying power since the start of the holy month of ramadan tensions in east jerusalem have been unusually high from gaza hamas is military wing is warning of
10:37 am

10:38 am
east and north africa program at chatham house and in boston rami corey senior public policy fellow and professor at the american university in beirut rami is also a senior fellow at the harvard kennedy school a warm welcome to you all it like to begin occupied east jerusalem with the. we've seen of fictions like this take place over several decades they've happened in other neighborhoods in occupied east jerusalem yet this one seems to cut right to the core of what is going on between the israelis and the palestinians and has become a very popular cause why is that. when you know if another as a had a sense that many cases happened before but not one of them as in just how this is like and if that. means same exact is taking place it's not is there are 20 tremendous so it's become better of persons. to be
10:39 am
kicked out from their own houses and we are we are we are. accusing is that. those who are. we to kink really is a justice taking away in who when it is horses who are taking their inhuman t. action anti our the irish ng the who population that i say are in chipchura they tick in their considerations it isn't either when there are settlers they were replaced by christian and fairies nobody is accusing them even a days ago they were still read. and so on you don't see justice and over there you see only police and israeli military actions are perfect in those illegal settlers who are confiscating our houses and
10:40 am
sitting in it kicking those families live in emperors who work my them if you years ago so where is justice red is if. you are in need. he really dont see it. it is the. actions that are really supporting is all spacey and families who are placed in ships. why did andy and your jordanian government since 1956 and after and the. federal budget what are they what are the legal mechanisms are there any legal mechanisms that will allow the palestinians to be able to stay in their homes under israeli law their own diggin issues is. those people who
10:41 am
said sure. to leave me are is there is replaced by did jordan government and. your honor law since that period but in defect to the different peepers other cases that they sent that the after see years of meetings here a georgian government a little help of the unruh are you with. just heard. there is those houses in the family nice but this isn't happened and iran had started 96 in 1987 and didn't continue the case so why do seems that in such a condition the settlers have their eyes to be appraised by those families in such conditions what any jury who really don't see that those
10:42 am
friendly is. the one who will be accused they were to run short of placed in those houses is it over. yet or as it's their dead the last since thank you for dates after next so it bridge and difference between it and the bat and those illegal sitters that are now going to keep those but the scene infamous saudi at it's in it but it became like it twice before then in like in $48.00 yes it's rare confiscated and in riddick out from that as it's by the israelis in $84.00 to $80.00 they met by you and now this is a net loss for them well let's talk about that let's talk about the actual laws itself i want to bring in. who joins us from london you'll see what all the jewish
10:43 am
activists the juror said is what laws are they using to make the claim that they actually own those properties before $940.00 as far as i could walk out these autumn an era laws that they using only. well. let's look at you know serious it's not a legal matter because it's a political system for more so what the special some doing though who is english to you know to execute their own political is not the gee intentional deliberate attempt to make the 2 states solution to handle it impossible now from a legal point of view yes some of these houses went on before length in 48 by jewish families and i don't think anyone would dispute here but at the same time so much of the property was on the inside these are not in the occupied territories inside these seem to get in line by the 750000 or you know they're fugitives and i don't think they anyone of them all the descendants of the refugees we find any
10:44 am
of them indian is the only cause. so the ownership is there but this time actually to look at the family politica so that now it sort of goes back to the to do is to glencoe and and i hope they will it consider a little understand that in the but also from the rest yes there might be ownership there but the results of these might mean much worse in political terms in terms of . well for violence and you know to to send to the states a stroll delusional state to score angels and i want to is there is an occupation which 40 percent of the issues no i it's very little light and 60 percent of the jewish population is the 9th and the palestinians are not the same access to to justice to the cotton is no it is the jewish population but you'll see a lot of what we're hearing from the palestinian side is that actually in those neighborhoods under jordanian law when they were under when it was jordan they were
10:45 am
given protected residence status which means they're allowed to live there so what is that what is the political motivation behind this white like i just i'm trying to understand if there is not a legal case what's the political motivation behind it. at the end of the day the political will to say sion of dissent lets the orderly know if a man's well if he doesn't know them and they don't want to lash of the interest of the settlers used to make it to state solution based on joe wilson members vote skeptical of fees and and palestine completely impossible what they're trying to encircle by joining to give the jewish neighborhood militants in syria one is a very similar situation all all 'd all when their ship john are the same time to exclude from jew was a learned long shot in the refugee camp to the movie which features the jewish
10:46 am
population in jerusalem and when they finish to encircle the old city with jewish enable this we make it almost by the way from there we make it almost impossible to have it come to your between palestine and palestinian state if you have a happens and it's capital you know who tunis jews are well let me bring in rami horry here in boston rami once again the jewish settlers are riding roughshod over international law whether it's humanitarian law or whether it's designed to protect those who are in the occupation all who have been displaced from their homes that the jewish settlers are doing this as you'll see pointed out with support tacit support from their supporters were then the israeli knesset is that anything the international community can do the un the e.u. and the us a call for restraint and that's not happening. the modern history suggests that there is nothing the international community is going to do except issue strong
10:47 am
statements that are not followed up by actions that the real situation is that you have the full force of the israeli state and the broader zionist movement that started over a century ago supporting the judy eyes ation of a land and power a sign that. at the balfour declaration $1015.00 was 93 percent palestinian arab and 67 percent jewish say that the sun sutlers running wild you've got the israeli army in military forces more or less supporting them you've got the political system in israel which is increasingly right of center supporting them and you have the legal system and israel supporting them and there's a new element now which is not really new it's been there again since 1015 tilt to now which is very successful zionist israeli manipulation of the international media through various mechanisms that they use lobbying and intimidation septra to try to silence the palestinian voice and to have the israeli narrative dominate the
10:48 am
global media that this is just some of the fans who are just applying the law and of course this is what all authoritarian autocratic regimes around the world do they say we're just applying the law of the law is designed to create a jewish state and the land that had been overwhelmingly arab and this is the continuation from the neck by 14748 until today that's the underlying political issue and it has to be addressed politically the palestinians are essentially leaderless no the jerusalem palestinians are doubly leaderless because the israelis have not allowed any palestinian institutions in jerusalem to persist and work community groups political groups so they only thing they can do is throw plastic chairs and and shoes on and stones and they do that and this is why this immense. the popular resistance comes up spontaneously every time there's something in jerusalem you get thousands and thousands of palestinians out in the streets just
10:49 am
standing there trying to say we're not leaving we're not going anywhere what you're actually talking about i think and let's not shy away from using the word is effectively apartheid right is that we are saying. well apartheid already exists and we've had the human rights watch and other selim and other people israeli internationals respected groups say that this is an apartheid like system there's no there's no doubt about that what it is is a sustained century old judaization program and what had been arab palestine and the still going on they used many techniques they deny palestinians in jerusalem the right to live there if they spend more than 6 months or whatever it is outside of jerusalem they take away the residency cards that make it impossible for people to travel and work they've only allowed about 5 percent i think of palestinians to be immunized against the virus now so that the name of the zionist movement and the state of israel as modern incarnation is to keep minimizing the
10:50 am
number of palestinians arabs there so that you can have a predominantly or totally jewish state that the terrible irony of the cruelty of this both for the palestinians and the arabs and the israelis specially for the israelis the number of palestinian arabs now between the jordan river and the mediterranean is greater than the number of jewish israelis there it's quite an extraordinary reality and this is something that the israelis don't know how to deal with they call it a demographic threat which is racist in its own way send this is so that's the bigger picture and it needs a political resolution that needs of resolution either 2 states or one democratic state democratic single state the israelis will never accept. so 2 states is the only thing that might work and that's becoming increasingly difficult because of the judy isolation then colonization program of the israeli government in the world seems to accept that they don't really there's no major international pressure until now and this is doubly tragic for the palestinians and for the rule of
10:51 am
international law well let's bring in fatah how that ahead in occupied east jerusalem a guest in boston ronnie horia said actually it needs political pressure but there is no body. to put that pressure on the palestinians are as we've discussed in effect leaderless. and in occupied east jerusalem israeli pointed out the doubly leaderless i mean wary where can you go from head i think. kristof or pro or explanation is why you won't buy. if you're from this channel we are it is ingomar courses high really you know very well is that is it and is a missed movement or around the winner are a taking us as has been bench and before. the interviews today
10:52 am
end this review we are able to hire our bushies towards having a really justice and a very establishment and their mission of our state with its is using them as a capitan only this is an too far off the united nations because they shouldn to be improved improved because really are. really really really i really. surprised not taking 'd any actions the actions to now 2 words democracy 2 words heavy duty justice in our county jurors having peace through or is it good we're not using a tiny sign is his feet beside israel. we asked really citizens we had to buy they don't want as you know very well and has been rich and they don't want to look nice ours so. from here on really want every single
10:53 am
egg to feast and hold a war to be risen us to support us to be interjected with us and to push mortgage forward to firm up in definition under international your parents will want to implement 'd this little one read a we don't ask for a way to punish isn't it for it's community from now let's let's bring in your ceaselessly in your seem a little bit. of a he's one of the people that kind of understands what israel might be thinking is israel playing a very dangerous game if those 70550 families get every excited how of us has to react and have us knows in gaza itself that if they don't react the gazans will do something if they react that means there's another more tensions in the gaza strip that the issue shake draw isn't just about occupied east jerusalem anymore it's
10:54 am
a cross palestinian issue and that could mean that the might be another war in gaza because hamas will have to react is that is that true do you think. wow you could do she and i think it's early days playing very dangerous getting i think is a really nice complaints see i would even say no guns think that they can do whatever they like whether it's in in journalism and or the entire west bank they feel that we received in normalization of relations other cults in the middle east you know nothing we want to fear i would say to think your position also change these. these are society you know really this is it is it's much worse than it used to be including the political instability and now that aspect of these and society not that it should be the palestinian side but it's something that easily society should leave you warning about its own come out there and how it's lost since
10:55 am
$967.00 is the most. being yet this can evident here was an event as in my focus was of course this all can lead to clashes in the angeleno and this will get even worse what we've seen in the last 48000 in the last few weeks it can lead to a war you know in gaza i mean we saw in 2000 that this was the leader for the 2nd intifada because of it but definitely it its leader so this is something that is a little shoe to take into account but when i say leadership where is the leadership we need right now in this post that it will i mean the stories because you know we've we're dealing with the squashing case in type to stay in power and out of jail thank you for when we are running out of time i do want to come to rami hoary as well rami is an interesting word that you'll see michael berg use that we don't really hear it very often anymore but intifada are we looking at
10:56 am
a potential 3rd intifada when it comes the parsons and by intifada we mean revolution. well and the father is a popular uprising and to just express people's humanity and their refusal to acquiesce in their own. suppression and dehumanization and oppression and that this is already going on there's a slow and a father this was going on for the last 25 years and occasionally bursts out into the 2 big ones but even into father's even how mass firing missiles none of these have resolved the issue they've only seen israeli colonise ation expand settler violence expand and the continued support of the israeli political and legal systems supporting what the settlers are doing so what they're the only way that this issue is going to be resolved is either of there is a serious international intervention to force both sides to negotiate a reasonable agreement that's reasonable for the israelis and the palestinians
10:57 am
which i believe can still be done or it's going to come from within these societies in terms of either tremendous clashes or miraculously some enlightened leaderships on both sides which is also possible but we don't see signs of it unlike the leaders might pull their people away from the brink of there are now into a really a continuation of the of the negotiations with had 40 years of negotiations with their own list 0 results and i think you have to go back to recognize that the zionist colonization of our sign is a process that has been going on since the late 19th century we're now into the 3rd century of this process and the palestinians keep resisting keep fighting there was 750000 palestinian refugees in 1948 who fled or were driven out there now somewhere around 45000000 and so the numbers game is very much against israel
10:58 am
they legal game is also probably against israel if you see the increase. global affirmation of his really hard job and at some point soon the political support that israel has almost total political support in the west is starting to crumble because people see the consequences of letting this situation drag on and it's terrible for the israelis as your son is terrible for the palestinians right well i want to thank all our guests we are sadly out of time a fad or other that you'll see michael berg and ronnie horry and thank you too for saying you can see this and all our other previous programs again any time by visiting our website how does a dot com and for further discussion that's what facebook page that's facebook dot com forward slash a.j. inside story and you can also join the conversation on twitter we are at a j inside story for me imran khan and a whole team here and. i
