Odwan: Privatizing 1948 lands reveals usurping nature of Israel
[ 05/08/2009 - 10:09 AM ]
GAZA, (PIC)-- Hamas MP Dr. Atef Odwan has charged that the Israeli parliament's decision allowing the privatization of Palestinian lands occupied in 1948 indicated the usurping nature of that "entity".
Odwan, in a statement on Tuesday, said that Israel has displayed itself as a "colonialist, expansionist, racist entity that does not believe in human rights or international norms".
The MP underscored that lands of the 1948 Palestine are owned by the Palestinian people, which they had inherited from their fathers and forefathers.
He said that the international community should assume its responsibility and adopt strong positions against the "Zionist policies that violate the Palestinians' rights" amidst world silence.
Odwan appealed to the Arab countries to shoulder their responsibilities towards those repeated crimes.
He asked Fatah faction, which is currently holding its sixth general conference in Bethlehem, to re-consider its policy and to return to resistance.
The Israeli parliament (Knesset) on Monday endorsed a draft law allowing the private ownership of "state lands", which would allow the transfer of ownership of almost 94% of Palestinian lands occupied in 1948 to Jewish settlers.
