the most 'moral democracy' in the mid east always violates international law just for starters and here is more evidence of their crimes;
Israel’s defence ministry plans to hold
an auction next week to sell two prefabricated classrooms that were
donated to Palestinian schoolchildren by the EU.
The Civil Administration, the body tasked with running the occupation, tore down and confiscated
the classrooms last October. They had been intended for 49 students, in
grades one to six, in Ibziq, in the northern occupied West Bank.
An advertisement published in the
Israeli newspaper Maariv said the sale would take place at Civil
Administration offices in the West Bank.
After the classrooms were dismantled,
the EU mission to Jerusalem and Ramallah condemned Israeli authorities
and called on them to rebuild the structures in the same place “without
delay”.
“Every child has the right to access
education and states have an obligation to protect, respect and fulfil
this right, by ensuring that schools are inviolable safe spaces for
children,” it said at the time.
“[T]he EU calls upon the Israeli
authorities to halt demolitions and confiscations of Palestinian houses
and property, in accordance with its obligations as an occupying power
under international humanitarian law.”
A list of auction items, seen by the
Guardian, showed dates, item numbers, locations and descriptions that
matched the confiscated classroom structures. The sale also appeared to
include material confiscated from Palestinians and Israeli settlers who
built without authorisation.
Asked to comment on Thursday afternoon, the Civil Administration said it needed more time to respond.
Palestinians have limited autonomy in parts of the West Bank, mostly urban areas, but Israel maintains full control of most of the territory and demolishes homes and buildings it says were built without permission.
More than 400,000 Israelis have moved
into the West Bank, building settlements on land seized from
Palestinians. The prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has pledged to annex those settlements.....http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=189239
