2:04 pm
interventions from the israeli far right we don't have no light at the end of that but we don't have a color because there is no peace process is jerusalem is occupied by israeli sovereignty in jerusalem it hasn't been recognized by the international community so we are sitting on a volcano there are concerns of a further deterioration on monday thousands of jewish israelis a set to march through the old city's muslim quarter to mark the israeli siege of east jerusalem in 1967 on the same day as a supreme court hearing on the shaikh if it should spur dangerous days ahead for a flashpoint city it can be both a focal point and a fuse the conflict within and far beyond its streets are a force that al-jazeera occupied east jerusalem. the un and human rights groups have long accused israel of forcibly evict sing palestinians from their lands one
2:05 pm
of the laws used to do this is called the absentee property law which allows israel to seize the properties of palestinians who fled over expelled in 1948 it creates properties that in areas that were later an expiring israel were palestinian private land also routinely confiscated through israeli zoning laws for agriculture military training and as natural reserves 100-006-2021 as you will demolish one and 3 thousands. 600 palestinian homes on and on pretext they weren't constructed lawfully or was necessary for military purposes and sense 2004 israel has destroyed or sealed more than 260 homes after alleged palestinian attacks well joining us now from tel of events yossi beilin former israeli minister of justice could have you with us here on al-jazeera. can you
2:06 pm
explain why israel threatening to evict these families from their homes and shiksha well it is a very complicated issue and i can tell you according to the israeli law maybe it is ok but according to the general wisdom if you stupidity. i mean israel has lows in say 48 which unable to confiscate. the longing or so-called that missing people but i mean just leaning on that is already not enough and one has to understand that it is so complicated and so sensitive that to get into it in our of the neighborhood in east jerusalem and to say we are having the right to live here because we both from somebody or that we have the shi'a and the turkish filmy to do it is really not enough and i hope that
2:07 pm
this supreme court or. the cold english of the world while we wait for that supreme court education you've called this decision stupidity and complex for the families living in these homes it's brutal and heartless given all of this what exactly do you think is it what will be achieved by pushing forward with such a divisive policy and arab neighborhood or what exactly does the netanyahu government hope to achieve with this inflammatory move. i hope very much that in the coming days then the government will disappear politically and that there will be a new government which would be much more sensitive and will not only deal with the issues of flows where the it is legal or not is not enough but what that it is human or not and we're doing it hurts us those people to be closer get closer to peace or the other way around because on both sides what you have are extremists
2:08 pm
who would like to use any opportunity in order to inflame the situation and there is no place better than dead then the harm is showing because i mean historically the confrontations many of them between israelis and arabs began there i really hope that the majorities on both sides which are reasonable and the last thing that they need is an israeli police and drink how are michelle leaves and and then the usual questions who begin and who was more violent than the other it's really useless we really hope to get out of it and maybe maybe i'm not sure but maybe the new government in israel will contribute to to end this idiotic confrontations which go on 400 years and this is so where and where is this new government going to come from them because israel was already had for elections and
2:09 pm
there doesn't appear to be much of a breakthrough there it sure seems that a state of political paralysis right now iran while this is going on families are expecting to be terrified of homes they've left and for generations so. where do you see the political change coming into it because anybody looking at the politics of it right now it doesn't see much hope for change as it stands. no i believe that there is a chance for i'm not sure about that but it is a very different government off right and left it's kind of a political experiment but but it is it worthwhile experiment in which this center left will have a very important say and i think that one of the contributions would be. to discourage u.s. efforts to expropriate. homes in whatever areas in east jerusalem no really needs it it helps nobody but the other side on
2:10 pm
the other hand it irritates entails and good ever so i think that wisdom will prevail there is a chance for it to do you think there is a political appetite it is real for this more conciliatory. approach that you're. you're offering up here because in the elections netanyahu has been reaching out to the extreme right. extreme right flank for supports and in the elections the main winners have been the right the center right in the far right so so where is the israeli population or is there still a center left right there in israel and if so where are they i'm sure that most of the israelis. i'm hit. at least to see the israeli authorities if they evacuating and sending their people from their
2:11 pm
homes and banishing them i mean this is the last thing that they need and we need there are extremists it is almost impossible to talk to them although it is drawing both sides but i'm speaking on my side and durai is to restrain them because they are very happy that there is fire in jerusalem this is what they need who knows why but this is not the only and we don't need it and we don't we want to relieve normally side by side with our neighbors the palestinians we know more or less what are the parameters of the final agreement between us and them and i think that one can do that i'm not sure that it will happen in the coming years of the of the. government my hope is that it we face the way to we'll see it at least and maybe
2:12 pm
even mold and and and i think do you worry at all about how this is impacting our israel looks on the world stage jordan says it's war does your back you tell you it's barbaric violations of the sanctity of the compound pope francis has called for an end to the suffering we heard from the scottish for 1st minister condemning what's happening. in the. neighborhoods and certainly politicians in the u.s. as well are also to decry what they see as a very unreasonable position how worried are you about how all these events are reflecting on israel's public image globally. it does reflect and it worries me but i think that because all month because the bottom line is that we did not see there and believable scenes i mean that there is
2:13 pm
confrontation the police is doing things they're. sorry but the bottom line is that it is containable so far it is going to continue good and of course i mean the world criticism is there and i appreciate that people are worried about it and also that they understand that putting the middle east on the side and saying and speaking about especially about the bad administration we will not deal with the middle east right now actually we will manage the conflict there is nothing like managing a conflict and today we can see ok you're see a bear in it great to get your thoughts thank you so much for joining us here on out of syria that c.s.c. very informed that your have as really minister of justice joining us there from tel aviv funeral so being held for the victims of 3 bomb explosions near

2:16 pm
not touching it is the i.s.i. but behind the scenes everyone is aware of that the taliban in doha the taliban in pakistan in the shower. or that you have come armed to start the spring attack against the afghan government and people so the others know that that they are not fighting. the fee $1.00 of the very high ranking come on that in doha that yet is no other group but taliban are responsible and they have the power for big attacks in that once on. still ahead here on al-jazeera myanmar's military johnson labels an opposition government of ice to them peace a terrorist group. but china says remnants of its rocket have splashed down near the mole days after tumbling back to earth in an uncontrolled the entry.

2:21 pm
a growing call for a well planned national lockdown but that that direction is not coming from the central government so what states are doing them posing their own version of fields and lockdowns now the latest data shows that nearly hauffe the cases that are coming in that we're seeing of covert $1000.00 in the country are coming in from the rural parts of the country the hinterland and that's really worrying because as you know in india it's already reeling under the pressures of this virus people scrambling for beds lack of oxygen rule in job barely has any of the facilities we're seeing in cities like delhi and bengal who also village barely have a primary health care providers several of them have to travel to towns and cities to access basic medical facilities there are barely any ventilators if at all also what's worrying is that rural india at this time is suffering a lot more than it did during the 1st wave the 1st big wave which is you know

2:24 pm
serve the people so we understand they have immense of challenges but the point here is what about the international community you know we are we so well we only have to have a lip service for the international community yes we see that there are sanctions are going on as some pressure is going on on the on the military but we needed tangible. you know effective support for this and huge government and people those who are supporting so what about the people you know not to overthrow the brutal regime china says when one of its biggest rockets has landed in the indian ocean after an uncontrolled re-entry into the earth's atmosphere coordinates for the spy the chinese space agency put the landing area here just west of the maltese not yet clear whether any debris lands is on the island so china says most turns up. the rocket skulled long march 5 flown 10 days ago carrying part of china's 1st private
2:25 pm
space station nasa has criticized beijing for failing to control the separate saying it isn't missing sponsible standards 5 ians and there is a senior research fellow at the university of southern queensland's institute for advanced engineering and space sciences he says china is the only country that still allies the uncontrolled re entry of space junk large spaces can reach the ground but it doesn't happen too often and certainly not really where in populated areas today the main place that entered the atmosphere was about 20 tons and 30 meters long so that was certainly the single piece that entered the atmosphere once it entered the atmosphere it really broken up into many smaller pieces previously and one match for ip use being reported to drop a piece that was 12 meters long so you could imagine if there were people around that it would be dangerous but again landed in the ocean and that's where most of the space debris doesn't back and so this chinese long match is one of the 1st
2:26 pm
rockets and it is only the 2nd of its type it's been launched by the main stage of the rockets at a very large component actually went over so this means it's all getting around the earth and that's what we've been tracking for the previous few days normally these rockets would be disposed of in a manner that means they drop into the ocean fairly quickly after the launch and don't go into an uncontrollable bit like this one with the set up they've got they can put more mass into orbit so for their actual space station about launching their i want to get more of that into orbit perales up costs both in mass and doubles and the result is of course that we have this one piece left over after woods for example people like space x. are of course really landing everything so they can reuse it and that seems to me like the international and global trend that's happening this single use is not really seen anywhere else outside of china so hopefully it won't be continuing in this line. chillag sports the lion's share of the world gets its phones in the
