| Israel: Jerusalem Palestinians Stripped of Status : Discriminatory Residency Revocations | | Human Rights Watch - Between the start of Israel’s occupation of East
Jerusalem in 1967 and the end of 2016, Israel revoked the status of at
least 14,595 Palestinians from East Jerusalem, according to the
Interior Ministry. Authorities have justified most revocations based
on a failure to prove a “center of life” in Jerusalem but, in recent
years, they have also revoked status to punish Palestinians accused of
attacking Israelis and as collective punishment against relatives of
suspected assailants. The discriminatory system pushes many
Palestinians to leave their home city in what amounts to forcible
transfers, a serious violation of international law.-rh | 9/8/2017 |

"Young Palestinian men in East Jerusalem are an "invisible group"
largely ignored by Israelis and the municipality controlled by
Israel. But their lives are filled with humiliation, deprivation

identity, the Al Aqsa mosque sustains them with belonging, purpose
and meaning." ca

| The fog of Al Aqsa violence obscures the true face of Israel`s occupation | | Joseph Dana - The National - Any change to the status quo in the Old
City is cast in the media as part of a religious war. But is this
latest outbreak of violence really a religious fight or is it instead
a flash point in the battle between an occupying power and an occupied
people? In the age of ISIL and the historic transformation of the
Middle East, occupation doesn’t gather nearly the same attention as
religious conflict.-rh | 3/8/2017 |

| Five Palestinians indicted over `Facebook incitement` | | Yael Friedson - Ynet - The Jerusalem District Attorney submitted
indictments against five residents of East Jerusalem for Facebook-
related offences. They were charged with "incitement", "calling for
terror attacks to be carried out against Israel" and "expressing
support for the killing of two Israeli policemen on Temple Mount".
One of those indicted had posted on his Facebook page the photo of
an Israeli policeman holding his face in shock as paramedics tend to
the wounds sustained by his colleague, accompanied by the words:
“Hell and darkness in the next life.” [It should be noted that the
prosecution had never presented this kind of indictment against
Jewish Israelis - though extreme-right Israelis regularly use
Facebook to publish calls for the indiscriminate killing of Arabs,
for an ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, and even outright and
explicit calls for genocide-ak]
