Minister of
Jerusalem affairs Fadi al-Hadmi has accused Israel of waging a war on the
Palestinian presence in Occupied Al-Quds (Jerusalem), especially through
carrying out mass home demolitions in Sur Baher, Silwan, Qalandiya and
different neighborhoods.
Hadmi made his
remarks during his participation in a symposium held recently at the Royal
Cultural Center in the Jordanian capital Amman. The event took place under the
theme “The cultural and social structure in Jerusalem.”
He warned that
Israel’s Judaization practices, such as imposing hefty taxes on the
Jerusalemites, refusing to grant them building permits, and enacting unfair
racist laws on living in the holy city, are aimed at forcing the indigenous
population to leave the city.
The minister
highlighted the importance of the Jordanian custodianship of the holy sites in
the holy city as “a safety valve” against Israel’s practices.
