While brutal force has been used to create Zionist Israel and sustain it thus far, Zionist claims to Palestine are false. Actually, from the five thousand years of known written human history, there has been a continuous Palestinian-Canaanite presence in the Holy Land. Despite the Zionist false claims, the ancient Israelites ruled part of the land for only 85 years (during the reign of Prophets David and Solomon , peace be upon them, and Solomon's son).

 After that, the Egyptians conquered Palestine-Canaan in 925 BC, followed by Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, before the Arab Muslim rule, starting from 636 AD.

By the Time Jesus, peace be upon him, started his mission, the three population groups of Canaanites, Palestinians, and Israelites were melted together in religion and language. Most of them became Christians when Constantine converted in 313 AD. Then, most of them became Muslims in the 7th and 8th centuries AD.

So, Palestinian Muslims, Christians, and Jews are the ones who have the right to claim descent from ancient Israelites, Palestinians, and Canaanites, not Zionists from other continents.

No matter what the Zionists and their supporters do, they cannot change the will of God, Who promised the Holy Land to Abraham and his descendants, basically the Palestinian Muslims and Christians.

No matter how much persecution and aggression the Zionists and their supporters inflict upon the Palestinian people, they will never be able to force them out of the Holy Land, which Allah, praise to Him, promised for them, and kept His promise ever since.

This is a necessary brief background to understand the US-Backed Zionist Israeli continuous wars against the Arab nation generally, and the Palestinian people in particular, which included the wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, 1978, 1982, the brutal crushing of the two Uprisings (1987-1993 and 2000-2004), 2009, 2012, 2014, 2021, and the current genocidal war on Gaza (Since October 7, 2023), which has culminated a blockade of Gaza since 2007. In addition, the Israeli occupation and apartheid regime launched so many covert operations, raids, and air strikes on many Arab states since 1948.

The following news stories are just examples, not a systematic record, of the Israeli occupation government abuse, mistreatment, and violations of Palestinian human rights, on daily basis.

Editorial Notes about terms & names of people and places:

1. Names of people and places have been standardized to match standard Arabic grammatical rules.

2. Underlined letters and letters preceded by an apostrophe are references to Arabic letter sounds, which does not exist in the English alphabet.

3. The English letter i is equivalent to the Arabic short vowel known as kasra, as in Ibraheem and Qasim as well as in the English words sit and bit. So, it is incorrect to use it as a long vowel for such Arabic names as Jameel and Jibreel.

4. The English letter e is equivalent to the Arabi short vowel known as fat'ha, as in A'hmed and Mu'hammed.

5. It is more accurate to refer to the
land-grabbing Israelis, who establish illegal settlements in the Palestinian territory of the West Bank, as illegal Israeli settlers, than referring to them as colonists.

The term colony is a reference to a large entity or a country, such as American states before independence. It was also a reference to Egypt, and India, when they were British colonies.

In addition, the term "colony" represents a positive nostalgic theme, in the minds of native speakers of English, particularly in America and Britain.

6. It is more accurate to use the verb "abduct" than the verb "detain," in reference to taking Palestinian citizens by force to prisons and interrogation centers, by Israeli occupation regime soldiers. This is because the presence of the Israeli occupation regime forces is illegal in the Palestinian territories, and they have no jurisdiction over the Palestinian people.

Thursday 12-September-2024

DAMASCUS, (PIC)

UN experts urge Israel to halt attacks and harassment against journalists in West Bank

GENEVA, September 12, 2024 (WAFA) —

United Nations experts have condemned recent incidents of violence, harassment, and intimidation against journalists in the occupied West Bank, which have intensified amid the ongoing Israeli military attacks in the region.

Experts Erin Khan, the Special Rapporteur on the right to freedom of opinion and expression, and Francesca Albanese, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, issued a statement condemning these actions as illegal attempts by the Israeli military to obstruct independent reporting on potential war crimes.

The experts highlighted at least three incidents in September, specifically in Jineen and Toulkarm, where Israeli forces fired live ammunition at journalists and their vehicles while they were covering military operations and civilian casualties. At least four journalists were injured in these incidents, despite many wearing clearly marked press vests.

Since August 27, journalists, including a team from Al Jazeera, have been prevented from working and forced to leave under threat from the Israeli military. In some cases, soldiers inspected their personal phones and compelled them to delete material. One journalist was reportedly detained and interrogated arbitrarily, while others have been pursued by bulldozers operated by Israeli forces.

The experts expressed serious concerns about the punitive nature of these detentions, noting reports of torture, ill-treatment, and violations of due process. 

They emphasized that such actions undermine the right of journalists to report on the plight of the Palestinian people, including forced displacement and ongoing repression, in light of the International Court of Justice's recent ruling declaring the occupation illegal.
