1:34 am
east jerusalem but on monday the situation took a dangerous turn when israeli police stormed the mosque compound injuring hundreds of palestinians they armed group hamas responded by firing rockets into israel which in turn sparked the strikes on gaza more than 2 dozen palestinians were killed among them 9 children in these rarely attacks and at least 2 israeli women were killed by the rockets how mass had warned it would. when israeli police used rubber bullets stun grenades and tear gas occupied east jerusalem had been on anyway because palestinian families are being threatened with eviction from their homes israeli settlers have waged legal battles in an attempt to force the palestinians from the neighborhood. correspondents have been following the developments on both sides of the conflict will start with harry
1:35 am
fawcett from damascus gate in occupied east jerusalem. lilly's simmering tensions this violence it all really began with the situation here at the beginning of the muslim holy month of ramadan on the steps of damascus gate the decision by the israeli security forces to block it off to the usual kind of gatherings that we see mike lee during ramadan it was a real source of anger a source of protest and skirmishes between palestinians and israeli security forces all of that fueled and magnified by what was taking place in a nearby neighborhood. where there was the imminent threat of evictions on palestinian families who'd been living there for generations and all of that boiling over on monday those scenes we saw on the locks of mosque compound courtyards those very violent scenes with israeli security forces moving in in great numbers and of course leading to that deadline given by hamas for
1:36 am
a complete withdrawal by the israeli forces by 6 pm local time on monday just after that the launching of 7 long range rockets on the jerusalem area for israel the prime minister benjamin netanyahu said that that was crossing a red line and required a forceful response we're seeing that forceful response now and the israeli government is promising that it will last for days as well as that is the death toll mounts inside gaza wave after wave of rocket rocket fire coming out from inside the territory itself so it's an extremely volatile situation and also worth mentioning something that's being less reported the spread of violent protest to palestinian israeli and mixed towns there is a real danger of that violence continuing to spread throughout israel. turning into potential into community violence we've seen one instance of that already with a palestinian killed by gunfire by
1:37 am
a jew we're talking about civilian against civilian inside an israeli town overnight that's an extremely dangerous and volatile situation itself harris force at the inside story in occupied east jerusalem. deborah him reports from ramallah in the occupied west bank. there have been several calls for protests in different cities in the occupied west bank and we've seen some of them had to confrontation points with the israeli army such as israeli military checkpoints in the occupied west bank we know that east jerusalem and gaza are separated from the occupied west bank by israeli military checkpoints that palestinians would need permits to be able to go to say that they wanted to show their anger and say that even though they can't be with their fellow palestinians physically they are doing what they can because they believe that they are living in the same plight under the same israeli occupation and its measures we've seen
1:38 am
a lot of frustration among palestinians when it comes to how the past in authority is dealing with the latest escalation they believe they've given their very soft stance and this is why this position was manifested in some of the protests we've seen in one of the protests we've seen officials holding hands and walking in the protest was the younger generation was needing a gap between them it was a deliberate gap to show that they are not following their leadership when we asked some of the palestinians if they know that there is an arab league meeting on tuesday many of them told us that they don't even care to know because they believe that the arabs have failed them and they are left to fight the israeli occupation on their own. countries worldwide have appealed for deescalation of tensions while western capitals have called for the violence to stop. hamas for its rocket attacks the un held an emergency meeting but no statement was issued that. the violence by
1:39 am
israel against palestinians and its attacks on jordan described jerusalem as quote a red line and called for and to provoke a to have measures turkey called on world leaders to take effect to. action against what is called is rarely terror. let's bring in our guests in a lama la salla his jersey is deputy regional director for the middle east and north africa at amnesty international in tel aviv yeah i mean drawer former national security advisor to the prime minister of israel and former major general also a lama law nor order political and some funding member of the democratic national assembly welcome to the program. the events which continue to unfold at this particular moment is this something that could be contained by all the parties or
1:40 am
do you see the situation spinning art of control now. well it's going to be able to end it but in break the circle of impunity that has been existed in israel or correspond many years we have a great a portraitist or alternative international community or organ investigation into the street should not see that this could be a new chapter for what happens in israel marked by the authorities whereby international law and respect for human rights can be front and center into how things go on the ground and how international community deals with this situation. recent events are very worrying because they're around in the sense of what happened in 2014 in gaza. which group i do believe it is the most devastating indestructible israeli military operation in the bios in that or is really in measure have a month civilian life and the population there it is extremely worrying going to be
1:41 am
in this will happen and we can see the violations continue is because there is inherently there's no accountability for the continuous human rights and international obligations yacov by storming of a mosque compound firing rubber bullets stun grenades to gas inside the mosque what was is west trying to achieve when you know these are very important religiously speaking moments for muslims all over the world and for palestinians in particular. as you know this is the earliest race druce it's that simple man it's the bill of the jewish temple was there almost. 700 years before. the one came to jerusalem so on from the jewish point of view it is the only if there is or us and will if
1:42 am
the palestinians will not begin right. throwing stones into the womb wall trying to prevent jews from 'd visiting their holy place for the jews the police will not come in it's a very quiet place many days during the year and if the palestinians do not initiate such rioting such an attitude towards the jews who are praying down near their warning wall i don't see the police doing anything so been patient of all this event was banned by the palestinians against the jews in jerusalem and the rules alone is the capital. and was jewish city 2000 years before islam came to the to this area ok i see your point nor is the potus is author of lame. well of course if you're the colonizer and you root
1:43 am
allies in palestinian they in and they out for over 50 years sure there's no way you're going to find fault with the brutality of his rented police on a daily basis much less an attack on a large sum compound having said that i think it was very clear to the entire world what was happening and that's why we saw a blanket condemnation of these israeli measures we saw a blanket come condemnation as well the racist marchers of israeli settlers were completely unhinged and protected by israeli soldiers marching through occupied to rousselin chanting death to arabs so the provocation is the sparks of this escalation have you know they were there they were accumulating over days specifically throughout the month of ramadan when even the axis of palestinian jerusalemites to areas they traditionally go to after breaking their fast like the
1:44 am
the mask was restricted the writing was on her all over the wall but because of very petty political calculus it was allowed to continue these are the allies of benjamin netanyahu and he wanted to show them that he still their friend and now we are now where we are where we are because of all. the focal point of the discontent which soon degenerated into a wider confrontation was shifted a lot where thumb it is facing evictions now the hearing which is expected by the surprise read his supreme court do you see an outcome that could potentially change because of the latest developments on the ground. unless israel smothers that's for nervous system that imposes on palestinians who are coming because. there's been a continuous dispossession of innocence for example shows us a great story this is not the 1st time the palestinians are evicted from their
1:45 am
homes to make place for starters is reducing them is an occupied city its population a bus in population there is protected under international humanitarian law and since $97.00 when israel illegally antics gargle the city it has pursued policies of them graphic engineering which translated into force displacement of assyrians and expansion and building of illegal settlements on horses basement means that the mission office informs restricting on much of the implant bill and their residency eradication. basically pushing them out of it's their door there is so a less international law human rights are front and center joe how israel and the international community deals with us in population there and our city there are at least roussillon we will see a continuous by omission of president continue our project of. continuous force
1:46 am
displacement of the us in population they are yacov the expression of land for the settlers has been denounced by the un by the international institutions this see the next government in israel changing course. israel is a statement look like mainly because in the middle east. they appealed to the supreme court and the supreme court really make a decision i don't know where and i'm not working because the city and of to call and he'll then we have very little if the decision of the supreme court will be that we should let the palestinians to continue to believe in these hours as the real decision of the supreme court to review the effort to leave the baby because it belongs to our other people who apply protocol they will have to leave it's a little peace deal between the 2 groups why are you saying it's mine and the other
1:47 am
one saying well my name and bulls appealed to the call and then it will be decided by the court if there is a state in which when the court made a decision and you never know who for the call made to make the decision what the big. bet will be obeyed by at least by the authorities in israel no question about it i don't know and it's very much depends what will happen in the in the court i must say that one remark about the issue or thermal settles of taking place of our of this abuse the rule that ironically and it's almost impossible by nature the number of palestinians in jerusalem is a beagle not much more porous feelings are leaving you know in east jerusalem then 67 if those people who spoke will round about the
1:48 am
policy of you know taking the places of the palestinians by settlers so and so of course always accuse issues were not connected to the area. how it is that the number of palestinians in jerusalem is growing all the. palestinians from the on the west bank want to move into jerusalem situational the holistic need to alter their own bad while so many palestinians are immigrating from the west bank into jerusalem and ask to have. israel. so the reason you know our rights in china just like the riyadh i feel like that story. book these top level guides are going to stop me please go ahead i read that what they describe is against the reality on the ground yes but i just have to remind you that the housing project in charlotte was started in 1956 and then there was an agreement
1:49 am
between jordan and the un to hand over ownership of those places to other palestinians back in the sixty's coming 67 and things change on the ground. or you risk ask me a question and i answer and. then ask and then you ask me no no no no my you don't know i steal your wasn't is growing gold i because i was in any great broadcast bank into europe there right from the police if you're allegedly so bad why don't they immigrating from the west bank into jerusalem nor is this going to be a purely legal or a political battle particular as far as the case of shots or has concerned. no this is this is that i mean anyways the israeli ports are part parcel of the regime of colonial occupation and report after report study after study proves that they are no more than tools to provide cover for the dispossession of palestinians and the
1:50 am
systematic discrimination against palestinians we have yet to see a court rule in favor of palestinian families fighting for their property israel legislates laws to ensure that they are palestinians are discriminated against while israelis kepler's and settler organizations can claim a land and property belonging to palestinians palestinians will actually have a legitimate claim and deeds of their property cannot do the same. in the in what is now recognized as israel proper so that the argument is a bit upside down but again that's not surprising given the fact we're talking about you know a colonial regime trying to. market itself when it is so clearly exposed for what it is. the issue in jerusalem is not one of the real estate disputes it's one of
1:51 am
the occupation there is occupier and occupying denying that fact making it look otherwise doesn't change the fact that is the fact that less than his are in jerusalem of course their numbers are increasing well you know we have families just like all other humans but at the end of the day we're not in jerusalem because life is good and israel is treating us well we're in jerusalem because that's our homeland and we have every right to stay and we have every right to move freely ok in jerusalem and the palestinian cities it's not immigration it's the right to freedom of mormon less move forward because we have different angles to cover the muted international response when it comes to this particular confrontation could be an indication that the world would like to see the palestinians making compromises for them to be able to move forward to cannot just be stuck in a mindset about the past. well it is if it is about this is about it is about basically persistent in their own homes i
1:52 am
mean what can you change about that person is an issue gerard in this place already wants i mean what's happening now it's already happened in $94.00 the country and young far have been moved out and then suddenly there by the un relief and works agency is 820092010 there was a 1st wave of course displacement where buyers of balance work and settlers took over their homes and we're seeing this again and we'll see it you know carry on related if this is you know this system of this 2 shows insulation does not stop there are laws in his own hero or villain example of the entry to israel which treats palestinians or original inhabitants of the city as foreigners as people who are coming to visit i would prevent so you know it to to your yes it is not right to say that one person is from the was like in greatness be there are laws that prevent palestinians from it being able to live where they want and entry to israel
1:53 am
law as a start example of that where is there is clear discrimination against palestinians in text of the law if a person from issue 7 is married to a person from the west bank doubtless you from the west bank cannot have the right to leave it is recent below trying to look out i yak of why does it leave the future of the relationship between israel and palestine the in the international community has been saying that the expansion of settlements is the biggest threat and this i'm quoting the a you which said that this is something that would cause further damage to the prospects of a far viable palestinian state what to see where this how do you see the future. first we we have a little the palestinians cannot even agree on the west bank in jerusalem because the number of palestinians who want to move from the west bank in jerusalem such
1:54 am
high that cannot be they cannot be small by the by jerusalem area. and ask yourself the question why they want to immigrate people jerusalem so bad jews. second the issue of the palestinians israeli relations. the palestinians were against the russian jews into their own land since the beginning of the 19th century. but palestinians didn't accept the focus 7 decision of the united nations to make here or in between the jordan river in the caribbean 2 states the horse the bit of the warning for choose and that was the end . was another buck and from these early point of view we bender's. it's not something new. if the palestinians will not agree to compromise what they want is to preserve police or israel never succeed you heard that you people are saying in
1:55 am
there just 0 it is 13 uprising of the policy and what they achieved in this 13 uprising nothing why not ready to compromise ok the jews and the jews in israel in 47 said we don't like the decision of the united nations but if for having an independent state and peace between the palestinians and the jews we will have to accept 2 states we're already what the palestinians are never the jewish state will be destroyed whatever you will ok so they drop it in succeed the result is the one and they can continue to do the same in the future and they will succeed as well. and basically. the nor almost 30 years since the a peace agreement has been the policy is of these about is the central image element of that package was basically of america's will be able to play a role as
1:56 am
a broker now with by the who seems to be determined this time not to be bowed down in in in further mideast conflict do you think that the americans have to rethink their policy in the in the pilots in israeli conflict i think they should i'm not sure they will that i think that by the administration simply doesn't have the backbone or the interests really to have to realign u.s. policy with international law to realign u.s. policy with the growing consensus among them americans especially the constituents of this and ministration democratic party to support us today and rights to support international law and to reject this last check or an israeli violations an israeli actions and that and to batter old at these violations as well to finally condition military aid to israel which is a military superpower in the region all of these things would be in the interest of
1:57 am
the american administration i don't see it happening although strategically speaking i see that the trend is moving in the right direction and that more and more of us elected officials are aligning their positions with the moral and the logical way to go which is to say that there has to be a standard upon which we have relations and trees and they must apply toward exceptionalism that israel has it saw a formative 50 and has allowed it to do all of these things has to stop and this arrogance. of a with which palestinians are treated simply unthank you. thank you thank you we'll have to leave it there but promise you. his role nor are there that we will go back and revisit this particular story as it continues to unfold and thank you for watching you can see the program again any time by visiting our website al-jazeera
