Zionist officials gave the order to destroy 1500 Palestinian homes in Jerusalem.

If this order is implemented it would force nine thousand Palestinians to leave Jerusalem. A United Nations organ emphasized that this would make the living situation in the Arab parts of Jerusalem more severe. This weak position coming from an unimportant division of the United Nations shows the unimportance given to this issue. They called the destruction of homes in Jerusalem and the rising of Zionist settlements as a severe living condition for Arabs in Jerusalem.Zionist officials claimed that these homes were built without permits, but the date that these homes were built is before the establishment of the Zionist regime. This is only an excuse.According to the reports taken from international organizations, after Jerusalem was occupied and after the 6-day-war in 1967, part of the eastern section of Jerusalem was illegally taken into Zionist control.The Zionists took over one-third of Jerusalem forcing the Palestinians who lived in these areas to leave. They built 195 thousand houses in these areas in order to create settlements for Zionist citizens.Zionists only gave 13 percent of east Jerusalem to Palestinians, but they also prevented any form of building in these areas in order to create unbearable conditions. Now, the occupiers are using these conditions to force about 60 thousand Palestinians from this area.
