ISRAEL, EXPRESSING DISBELIEF, REJECTS FOURTH COMMITTEE DEBATE ON ISRAELI PRACTICES

Report of Special Committee ‘Irrefutable Proof’ Israel

       At Cross-Purposes with International Community, Says Speaker

The representative of Venezuela asked the Fourth Committee to imagine a country with nuclear weapons that had illegally annexed the land of another State, repeatedly violated international law and the decisions of the United Nations, and carried out actions described as war crimes and apartheid - that imagined country was real, she said. She condemned the settlements, separation wall, expulsions, and housing demolitions as the “twisted policy” of the Israeli regime.An unprecedented regime of closures, said Bangladesh’s speaker, aimed at “strangulating” an entire population, and the periodic escalation of violence only led to further despair and destitution, and Israel was purposely generating “fear, fury and distress among Palestinians”. The most serious issue remained settlement construction, which made it impossible to talk about restarting the peace process. The settlements presented an existential threat to the viability of a future Palestinian State, and even the greatest optimists would struggle to see the shape of a viable, contiguous Palestinian State under the circumstances.

ARLINE DIAZ MENDOZA(Venezuela), associating with the Non-Aligned Movement, asked the Fourth Committee to imagine a country with nuclear weapons that had illegally annexed the land of another State, repeatedly violated international law and the decisions of the United Nations, and had carried out actions described as war crimes and apartheid – that imagined country was real. Israel operated in an atmosphere of total impunity, and its human rights abuses had become increasingly perverse over the years, violating the most basic rights and impeding a just and lasting peace.She said that the Gaza blockade had not been eased as promised, which meant that basic goods could not be imported, and that food, water, health, education, and work were all impacted by constrained freedom of movement. Particularly disturbing was the impact on the social texture of a Palestinian State and on children in Gaza. She was also concerned about the settlement activity in the West Bank and the impediments to the freedom of movement there, which prevented many people from accessing their own land, attending religious services, or getting health care. The settlement policy, the wall, expulsions, and housing demolitions were part of the overall “twisted policy” condemned by her delegation. She called on the international community to require Israel to comply with the decisions of the United Nations and the Security Council and to abide by international humanitarian law.
DOCTOR MASHABANE ( South Africa), associating with the Non-Aligned Movement, said that it was unfortunate that the Special Committee had yet to secure cooperation from Israel in carrying out its mandate. Israeli authorities served in a law enforcement capacity in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and were obliged to protect the human rights of people living there. The Gaza blockade had been declared illegal, yet it continued. The ongoing provocative actions of the occupying Power, such as forced displacement, the extension of the separation wall, and ongoing settler violence, presented no possibility for peace.He said that the vision of the Oslo accords had not materialized, 19 years year later. The Bedouin community and their traditional pastoral way of life were under serious threat from the Israeli occupation. South Africa supported all recommendations in the report but regretted that they did not also address the question of impunity. South Africa believed in a two-State solution with the establishment of a viable Palestinian State, with East Jerusalem as its capital.Right of Reply
Speaking in exercise of the right of reply, the representative of the Permanent Observer Mission of Palestine stated that the fact that Israel had referred to the current debate as “a theatre of absurd” should be rejected. The Special Committee was mandated by the international community to investigate the practices of the occupying Power. What was being discussed here was not Israel as “a vibrant democracy”, but Israel as an occupying Power of more than 45 years of illegal practices that violated the human rights of Palestinians. Also, it seemed that the representative of Israel did not read the report, as it had indeed mentioned the rockets.She said that if Israel believed that Palestine would stop coming to the United Nations to discuss those issues, it was mistaken. “Does Israel think it can talk of peace while committing the violations it does?” Just today, 500 settlements had been announced, which came on the heels of a declaration on Friday of 1,200 more. Those announcements belied the campaign of false statements about the good being done for the Palestinian people. Israel must cease its violations of basic human rights principles before peace and security prevailed for both sides.
