Israeli Government ‘Puzzled’ Over Australia’s Recognition Of ‘West’ Jerusalem As CapitalCharles Bybelezer - The Medialine - The Israeli government welcomed with minimal enthusiasm Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s decision over the weekend to recognize “West” Jerusalem as the Jewish state’s capital. Notably, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu failed to release a statement on the matter, whereas the Foreign Ministry described the prospective opening of a trade and defense office in Jerusalem as a “step in the right direction.” For his part, Parliament Speaker Yuli Edelstein called the ordeal “puzzling.” Observers are attributing the modest response to Canberra’s decision to not formally relocate its embassy to the holy city and, perhaps more significantly, due to Morrison’s stated commitment to recognizing the eastern part of Jerusalem as the capital of a Palestinian state in the eventuality of a peace agreement.-rh18/12/2018

Palestinian Family to be Evicted from its Silwan Home for Jewish SettlersIMEMC - "The Magistrate Court issued the eviction decision prior to a session for the High Court to rule on ownership of the land. Documents were submitted to the High Court proving that the land on which the house is built belongs to the late Jamil Siam, and not to the late Abu Zweir. The court has set the 8th of next month to deliberate on the matter. Abu Zweir’s heirs explained that they had been fighting a legal battle in Israeli courts, for 22 years, to prove ownership of the house and land and to refute claims, by the Elad settler group, of ownership of the property." - id6/12/2018

Israel’s new war of attrition on Jerusalem’s PalestiniansJonathan Cook - Mondoweiss - Last week dozens of Palestinians were arrested in Jerusalem, accused of working for the PA to stop house sales to the settlers. It is a quiet campaign of attrition, designed to wear down Jerusalem’s Palestinian residents. The hope is that they will eventually despair and relocate to the city’s distant suburbs outside the wall or into the West Bank. What Palestinians in Jerusalem urgently need is a reason for hope – and a clear signal that other countries will not join the US in abandoning them.-rh4/12/2018

Palestinian demolishes own structures in JerusalemMa`an - The Wadi Hilweh Information Center said that Ahmad Siyam was forced to demolish his property of a storehouse, a garage and stairs, in the Ein al-Luza area, upon order by the Israeli municipality under the pretext that the structures were built without the difficult-to-obtain Israeli permit. (...) For Jewish Israelis in occupied East Jerusalem`s illegal settlements, the planning, marketing, development, and infrastructure are funded and executed by the Israeli government. By contrast, in Palestinian neighborhoods, all the burden falls on individual families to contend with a lengthy permit application that can last several years and cost tens of thousands of dollars.
