House Demolitions in the Occupied Territory

Check out the document link below.

The Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions estimates that some 19,000 Palestinian homes have been demolished in the Occupied Territories since 1967, based on information gleaned from the Israeli Ministry of Interior, the Jerusalem Municipality, the Civil Administration, OCHA and other UN sources, Palestinian human rights groups, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and other sources.

Interesting read. And considering that I was witness to a house demolition in the Arab neighbourhood of Silwan, near the old city of Jerusalem on Wednesday, these kind of documents bring home the unjust policies of the Israeli government. It is hard to get your head around it sometimes.

Everything is debatable – I have to keep telling myself that.
