UN: In 2014, Israel demolished 1,177 Palestinians homes in the West Bank
Aug 20, 2015 17:28:59 #
"Israel destroyed 590 Palestinian buildings in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, in 2014, displacing 1,177 people, according to a new study by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). This constitutes the highest level of displacement in the West Bank since the UN began monitoring the issue in 2008.
Amira Hass summarizes the findings of the OCHA report in Haaretz. She indicates that, in 2014, the Civil Administration of the Israel Defense Forces destroyed
493 buildings in the West Bank;
the homes of 969 Palestinians in the West Bank;
97 buildings in East Jerusalem;
the homes of 208 Palestinians in East Jerusalem; and
an average of 9 Palestinian buildings per week.
In three days, from 20-22 January, 77 Palestinians, over half of whom were children, were made homeless by these demolitions. In just the week of 19-26 January, Israel destroyed 41 Palestinian buildings and delivered 45 construction stop orders and two demolition orders. All of these structures were owned by Bedouins and other pastoral communities. Some of the destroyed buildings had been donated by European humanitarian organizations, and Israel issued an order to stop construction on a park funded by foreign donor countries.
Israels extrajudicial demolitions continue into 2015. In January alone, Israel destroyed 77 buildings belonging to Palestinians in the West Bank, leaving 110 people, roughly half of whom were children, homeless in the cold of the winter.
UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator James W. Rawley argues the demolitions violate international law. Demolitions that result in forced evictions and displacement run counter to Israels obligations under international law and create unnecessary suffering and tension, he said. They must stop immediately.

You're just proving you don't know anything about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. The West Bank has never shelled Israel and no one has ever said they want to wipe Israel off the map.
The rockets sent out of Gaza are the only way the Palestinians imprisoned there can let the world know they have been imprisoned without committing any crimes. The crimes have been committed against them by Israel.

There are several on this forum that believe Israel and the Jewish are parasites. That they stole the land from Palestine.
They believe the church (Christians) have replaced the Jewish, God's chosen. This making Palestinians the victims, and Israel controlled by satan.
This is one of these that post these lies on this forum.

More twisted lies, making Israel the evil and the Palestinians the victims. As always you have up is down, left is right.
May God bless Israel and his chosen, protect the apple of his eye Jerusalem, and destroy Israel's enemies.

Do some research and attempt to find where any Muslim leader has said Israel should be wiped off the map. That statement is rooted in a speech made by Iran's president, Ahmadinejad, when he quoted a Khomeini speech which said "The regime in Israel should vanish from the pages of time."
The lying Zionist-controlled media misquoted Ahmadinejad and they have been lying ever since.

Where is your source to prove the article is lies?
Do you expect readers to believe you without your supplying any proof?

Maybe you should branch out and seek news from sources not of the liberal slant !
Sounds like you'd have no problem if Israel would be blasted off the map which will never happen because the God of Israel will not let it happen !
Actually if you were to read the Bible you would know that the land of Israel was given to them way way way back there not that is of any concern to you and a whole mass of God hating people !

Anyone who has studied the history of the Zionist invasion of Palestine knows that Zionists stole Palestine using a campaign of mass murder and terrorism. The Zionist mass murder and terrorism is still going on today.
George Galloway explains very clearly why the Zionists have no right to Palestine:

The Bible is not a legal document. The Bible cannot assign ownership of land.

You have already proven to everyone that you know absolutely NOTHING about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict!!! You're just a shill for the Palestinians, Hamas, and Hezbollah! A Propagandist to the max!
