3,140 people signed a petition

Since 2004, Israel has demolished 436 Palestinian houses in East Jerusalem, leaving 1,708 people homeless, according to the Israeli rights group B'Tselem.
Israeli authorities have also revoked the status of 14,084 Palestinian Jerusalemites since 1967, no longer permitting them to live in the city.
There are around 360,882 Palestinians in Jerusalem, or 38 percent of the city's population.
Israel has occupied East Jerusalem since 1967 and formally annexed the area in 1980 after passing the 'Jerusalem Law'.
Jerusalem is one of the key final status issues in any future peace agreement.

Jerusalemite citizen forced to demolish his own home: "I am unemployed at the moment and I have seven children. We are daily suffering from Israeli brutality," the Jerusalemite citizen stated.
A Palestinian was forced to demolish his own home in East Jerusalem on Monday after Israel issued a demolition order for his property. Daoud Eseid demolished his home to avoid paying the fees charged by Israeli authorities if Israeli forces had carried out the demolition, lens: Afif Amira

Jerusalemite citizen, Azzam Afifi, demolished his house, on Wednesday, to avoid his arrest or pay fine, in context of the occupation's continuing restriction policy against Jerusalemites.

What is wrong with these Israelis? Don't they remember the Holocaust? And yet they do similar awful things to Palestinians!

I support Israels right to exist with a Palestinian State. Ironically, Antisemitism and blind anti-Palestinian racism can occur at the same time. All Human Beings are capable of hippocracy out of fear or necessity..do you live on Native American land?

I am absolutely against Jews who support, or vote for the illegal racist Jewish Zionist government. If you are a Jew and want to be respected….and accepted.. by the rest of the human community, you need to prove, not with deceitful words - but by genuine actions that you support the Palestinian Liberation, and that you reject the criminal occupation – you need to prove, not with a hollow heart, that you sincerely have abandoned your allegiances, abjured your beliefs and renounced your...

Untuk temen2 dari indonesia,

Yul ikutan petisi untuk menghentikan kejahatan kemanusiaan tentara pendudukan israel terhadap orang2 palestina.

Petisi ini ditujukan kepada UNRWA http://unrwa.org

Fyi, masalah palestina itu sama sekali bukan masalah agama. Orang Palestina itu bisa muslim, kristiani dan yahudi (tapi bukan zionist)

As someone with Jewish ancestry, who lost many relatives during the shoa I feel sickened and disgusted by Israel's treatment of Palestinians.If there is one state on this planet that should set otself a higher standard of conduct, surely it is Israel.

This is a wrongdoing, shameful and unjust and the voices cry out on the winds.
