deportation of the four parliamentarians, after Israel`s parliament
passed a law in March granting the interior minister full power to
revoke the Jerusalem residencies of Palestinians over allegations of
"breaching allegiance" or "loyalty" to the Israeli
state...Palestinians fear the legislation will speed up the
expulsion of Palestinians from the city, and be used to target
Palestinians who criticise the Israeli state." ca | 25/5/2018 |

| Israeli Brown-Shirts “Celebrate” Jerusalem Day | | Richard Silverstein -
Tikun Olam -
"Jerusalem is one of the strangest cities in the world. Let’s leave aside all the tourist promotion about “Jerusalem of Gold” and “a city holy to three religions.” And the Israeli claim that it is “Israel’s capital, eternal and undivided.” All that is window dressing for what Jerusalem really is."..."And now, it is a city filled with hatred, with extremists eager to kill the Other. It is a city divided as few other cities in the world today are." - id

"The hate crimes, once commonly referred to as “price tag attacks,”
are committed by extremist Jewish youth from nearby settlements.
Their goal is retributive: to exact a price from Palestinian
civilians (and in some cases left-wing Israeli Jews, Christians, and
Israeli security forces) for actions Israeli authorities take
against the settlers, usually building enforcement in illegally
built settlements." ca | 12/5/2018 |
