    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.

    4. 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.
