New Israeli Law Paves Way for Ethnic Cleansing
- PressTV Published on Jul 20, 2018
Palestinians have strongly slammed Israel for adopting a law which recognizes Jewish supremacy over Palestinians in the occupied territories. Palestinian Resistance Movement, Hamas, said the new measure legitimizes Israeli racism. Hamas spokesman, Fawzi Barhoum, said such legislations would not have passed were it not for the silence of the international community. The Palestinian Authority has also issued a statement. It says the new law paves the way for ethnic cleansing. It described the law as a declaration of war. Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, said the law will not change the historical situation of Jerusalem al-Quds as the eternal capital of Palestine. Abbas said the legislation will not discourage Palestinians in their legitimate struggle to defeat the occupation and establish their independent state.
