Palestinian Dispossession in East Jerusalem http://mostlywater.org/node/85088

Sheikh Jarrah is a "poignant case study" highlighting Israel's belligerent lawlessness. It's "a microcosm of Israel's aggressive East Jerusalem" land policies over the entire West Bank, providing "a documented example of the (multiple public and private forces) engaged in cementing (its) claim to sovereignty over (all) Jerusalem" and as much of the West Bank as it wishes.Palestinians have endured decades of occupied belligerency and the systematic theft of their land, the international community failing to fulfill its obligations under Article 1 to the four Geneva Conventions stipulating:

"The High Contracting Parties undertake to respect and to ensure respect for the present Convention in all circumstances," meaning they must intervene to enforce the law by holding violator states liable. Yet for over six decades, Israel's has remained unaccountable, including for state terrorism, belligerency, militarized occupation, arrests, incarcerations, random killings, targeted assassinations, torture, free movement and expression restrictions, crop destruction, economic strangulation, home demolitions, land seizures, and forced displacement, yet the world community is silent. How long will this continue? When will justice be served? Why haven't supportive millions acted to assure it? People of conscience demand answers. It's high time they got them.
