Top 10 Human Rights Violations by Netanyahu Against Palestinian People Netanyahu has implemented policies that have drawn widespread condemnation for violating the human rights of Palestinians.

Israel’s complex and often controversial political landscape has made human rights a central issue in the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a figurehead in Israeli politics for decades, has been overwhelmingly condemned for his policies regarding the Palestinian people. Throughout his tenure, numerous incidents and policies under his administration have drawn widespread criticism from human rights organizations, who rightly accuse him of violating international human rights law and the rights of Palestinians. Below are 10 major human rights violations attributed to Netanyahu’s policies, along with actions taken during his time as Prime Minister: 1. Expansion of Illegal Settlements Violation: Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, areas considered occupied under international law, have expanded significantly during Netanyahu’s rule. These settlements are illegal under the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits the transfer of the occupier’s population into occupied territory. Action Taken: Netanyahu has consistently supported settlement expansion, viewing it as part of Israel’s security and historical claim. Despite international condemnation and numerous UN resolutions calling for a halt to settlement activities, he has continued to approve and promote their growth, especially in sensitive areas like East Jerusalem and Hebron. 2. Forced Evictions and Home Demolitions Violation: Thousands of Palestinian homes in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and inside Israel have been demolished under Netanyahu’s leadership. These demolitions often target Palestinian homes that Israel claims were built without permits, even though obtaining such permits is extremely difficult for Palestinians. Action Taken: Netanyahu’s government has accelerated the demolition of Palestinian homes, particularly in areas slated for settlement expansion. The evictions of Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah and Silwan in East Jerusalem during 2021 gained international attention and were widely condemned as violations of Palestinians’ right to housing. 3. The Gaza Blockade Violation: Since 2007, Israel has imposed a strict land, sea, and air blockade on Gaza, which has been labeled by many international human rights organizations as collective punishment of Gaza’s civilian population. The blockade restricts movement, trade, and access to essential goods and services, severely impacting the lives of over 2 million people. Action Taken: Netanyahu has continued and, at times, intensified the blockade, citing security concerns over Hamas. The blockade has led to severe shortages of food, medicine, and other essential supplies, creating a humanitarian crisis. Critics argue that this violates the basic human rights of Palestinians, especially the right to freedom of movement and access to healthcare.

Use of Excessive Force Against Protesters Violation: Israeli security forces have been accused of using excessive force against Palestinian protesters, particularly during the Great March of Return in Gaza between 2018 and 2019. Hundreds of Palestinians were killed and thousands injured, many of them unarmed, including children, journalists, and medical workers. Action Taken: Netanyahu’s government has defended the use of force, citing the need to protect Israel’s borders and prevent infiltration by militants. However, human rights groups like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have condemned the disproportionate response, accusing Israeli forces of war crimes for targeting unarmed civilians. 5. The Nation-State Law Violation: In 2018, Netanyahu’s government passed the Jewish Nation-State Law, which officially enshrines Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people. Critics argue that the law discriminates against non-Jewish citizens, particularly Palestinians, and undermines their rights to self-determination, equality, and cultural expression. Action Taken: Despite widespread criticism from within Israel and internationally, Netanyahu defended the law as essential to preserving Israel’s Jewish character. The law’s passage has been seen as a step toward institutionalizing discrimination against Israel’s Palestinian citizens, who make up roughly 20% of the population. 6. Military Raids and Arbitrary Detentions Violation: Under Netanyahu, Israeli forces have conducted frequent military raids in the West Bank, often leading to mass arrests, including of children, without charge or trial. Many of those detained are held under “administrative detention,” which allows Israel to imprison Palestinians indefinitely without formal charges or due process. Action Taken: These actions have been justified by Netanyahu as necessary for Israel’s security and counterterrorism efforts. However, human rights groups argue that such practices violate the rights to fair trial, liberty, and protection from arbitrary detention. The widespread detention of Palestinian minors has also drawn international outcry. 7. Collective Punishment in Gaza Violation: During Israeli military operations in Gaza, Netanyahu’s government has been accused of collective punishment, where the civilian population suffers for the actions of militants. This includes the destruction of civilian infrastructure, including homes, schools, hospitals, and sewage systems, often described as disproportionate and indiscriminate. Action Taken: Netanyahu’s government has launched several military offensives in Gaza, including Operations Cast Lead (2008-2009), Pillar of Defense (2012), and Protective Edge (2014). These operations have resulted in high civilian casualties and widespread destruction, leading to accusations of war crimes by international bodies. 8. Segregation and Discrimination in Access to Resources Violation: In the West Bank, Palestinians face systemic discrimination in access to water, land, and electricity. Israeli settlers are granted unrestricted access to these resources, while Palestinians face severe restrictions. Action Taken: Under Netanyahu, policies have continued to favor settlers over Palestinians. Israel controls over 80% of water resources in the West Bank, and Palestinians often receive far less water than Israeli settlers. Human rights organizations have denounced this disparity as a violation of Palestinians’ right to water and equal treatment. 9. Restriction of Freedom of Movement Violation: Palestinians living in the West Bank are subject to numerous checkpoints, roadblocks, and barriers, severely restricting their freedom of movement. This affects their ability to access healthcare, education, and employment. Action Taken: Netanyahu’s government has maintained and, at times, expanded the system of checkpoints and roadblocks. Although Israel cites security concerns, the restrictions on movement are seen as disproportionate and unnecessary, severely impeding Palestinians’ daily lives. 10. Undermining Palestinian Political Rights Violation: Netanyahu has actively opposed Palestinian efforts toward statehood and political independence, repeatedly rejecting international efforts to create a two-state solution. His government has consistently pushed policies that undermine the political rights of Palestinians, including their right to self-determination. Action Taken: Netanyahu has supported annexing parts of the West Bank, notably the Jordan Valley while opposing Palestinian membership in international organizations like the United Nations. His government’s efforts to block the recognition of Palestinian statehood have drawn criticism from global leaders and human rights advocates. Oh wait, did I mention SERIAL KILLER NENTANYAHU has murdered over 40,000 human beings in Gaza in the last year destroying the homes of millions in the process? Yeah, that may need to be added here as the # 1 thing on this list. Conclusion Throughout his political career, Netanyahu has implemented policies that have drawn widespread condemnation for violating the human rights of Palestinians. From expanding illegal settlements to imposing harsh military blockades, his actions have led to the systematic suppression of Palestinian rights. Despite international pressure and numerous human rights reports, Netanyahu has defended his policies as being in the interest of Israeli security, often sidelining Palestinian human rights in the process.

Former UN rapporteur for Iran under fire for sharing stage with MKO terrorists Tuesday, 27 August 2024 10:50 AM [ Last Update: Tuesday, 27 August 2024 10:50 AM ] The former UN special rapporteur for Iran, known for his close ties with the Albania-based anti-Iran terrorist cult MKO, is again under fire for attending an event hosted by the group. Javaid Rehman, who until recently served as the UN special rapporteur on the "human rights situation in Iran," was seen participating in an event organized by the MKO terror cult, where he presented another fictitious report on the “human rights situation” in the Islamic Republic. The event, sponsored by the MKO terror cult, has drawn sharp criticism for Rehman's association with the group. The event was announced on X (formerly Twitter) by MKO terror group leader Maryam Rajavi, prompting widespread backlash on social media, with netizens slamming Rehman's blatant hypocrisy. Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani also criticized Rehman, stating that the former rapporteur "has served the MKO terror group on multiple occasions." "Javaid Rehman has provided numerous services to the terrorist MKO. It was no surprise to see him attend the gathering of MKO terrorists," Kanaani wrote on his X page on Monday. “His evident alignment with this terrorist group under the guise of the UN Special Rapporteur had been notified on many occasions to the UN authorities,” he added. Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaee, a senior member of Iran’s Constitutional Council, also took to X to denounce Rehman's association with the MKO. “Reports by UNSR (UN special rapporteur) should be ‘free from any kind of extraneous INFL, incitement, PRES, threat or INTRF...,” Kadkhodaee, a noted legal luminary, tweeted. “Presence of ex-HR rapporteur alongside terror cults speaks volumes. Such SRs r NOT #HumanRights Advocates BUT defenders of terror & atrocity crimes.” Many others on social media echoed these sentiments, calling out the hypocrisy of the UN rapporteur in sharing a stage with members of the notorious terror group who have blood on their hands. “Javaid Rehman, former UN Rapporteur, who issued biased reports favoring the MKO, now freely attends meetings of this terrorist group,” wrote the Habilian Association, which represents families of Iranian victims of MKO terrorism. “We’ve warned that the UN's selection process for Iran rapporteurs is not transparent. Rehman’s support for the MKO must be investigated.” The MKO is responsible for the deaths of more than 17,000 Iranians during the 1980s and 1990s, using terrorism as a weapon against the Iranian nation. The group was listed as a "terrorist" organization by both the United States and the European Union until about a decade ago. However, tensions with the Islamic Republic led to its de-listing. Dead but not buried: How MKO terror cult lost ground, slipped into abyss Dead but not buried: How MKO terror cult lost ground, slipped into abyss The turn of events in recent weeks, from Albania to France, bear testimony to what was clear from the beginning – the multi-billion dollar investments in the MKO terror cult have been an exercise in futility. The cult is dead but not yet buried. Rehman’s association with the MKO is not new, but it deepened during his tenure as the UN special rapporteur when he was accused of frequently pushing the terror group's bogus narratives. Last month, Kanaani dismissed a report released by Rehman on the human rights situation in Iran as part of broader efforts by adversaries to tarnish the Islamic Republic’s image. “UN officials, specifically the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), are legally responsible for preventing the exploitation of their positions to pursue biased personal or collective objectives against countries,” Kanaani stated at the time. Rehman’s reports on Iran have often reflected the MKO’s propaganda, a connection that was particularly evident during the West-backed riots in Iran two years ago. In an interview with Newsweek in October 2022, Rehman remarked that the riots “posed a threat” to the Islamic Republic but declined to comment on Western support for the bloody unrest. https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2024/08/27/732166/former-un-rapporteur-iran-under-fire-mko-terror-cult

â—¾ A Palestinian man displaced from northern Gaza said in an interview with Al Jazeera that the soldier stationed outside his home in a tank spoke to them in English as they fled their home: - we were under siege for two days. The house has many tanks in front of it, not one or ten it was a huge number... The soldier that we saw had an American flag on his combat uniform... I looked at our neighbours houses, only another family in our street had survived...We left the area and could hear wounded people screaming in pain. â—¾Follow: t.me/UkraineHumanRightsAbuses

Holy Mother of Based. Love seeing citizens excersizing their 2nd amendment rights in unison to to deter oppression, personally. Ive seen this happen several times this year now in different cities, where people decided to organize armed protests to protect homeless encamptments as their sweeped to ensure belongings are not thrown out. This is a growing trend as often times when cities sweep homeless encampments, they will forcibly remove the occupants, and literally just throw out all their shit, with them feet away, and use armed cops with the threat of violence to prevent them from saving some of their possessions from being thrown out. Many homeless people lose their ID in these sweeps, which is part of the vicous cycle[2] Despite the many videos around the nation of homeless people crying and begging to retrieve some of their items as heartless city workers throw their lifes possessions out in front of them, with armed cops ready to shoot should the victims resist in any effective manner, cities have not changed their policies. So citizens are taking direct action. Here is an article I found on of the initial Dallas armed protest, titled activate karen voice: "Armed activists blocked Dallas workers from cleaning a homeless camp. That’s unacceptable. This is not how we do things in this country."[3] What do you think? Are these armed protestors defending the rights, property, and dignity of the homeless doing the right thing, or doing a wrong thing? https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/dallas-prepares-for-armed-resistance-during-local-homeless-encampment-sweeps-14765203 2.https://missionlocal.org/2022/02/data-provides-glimpse-into-belongings-taken-from-unhoused-people/ https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/editorials/2022/07/27/armed-activists-blocked-dallas-workers-from-cleaning-a-homeless-camp-thats-unacceptable/ 4.[inspiration for post] https://twitter.com/EFJBGC/status/1567588784505556992 homeless #choosefreedom #abolishthepolice #americanpolitics #basichumanrights #humanrights
