Israel continues to seize Palestinian land ‘on an annual basis’
Abdullah al-Arian, a researcher at Georgetown University, says land theft has been “part and parcel of the Israeli state going back to its establishment in 1948”.
“Very soon after, the Israeli state established certain laws that permitted them, under a massive wide umbrella of security concerns, to be able to seize any land at any point, specifically from Palestinian residents and citizens,” he said, talking to Al Jazeera on Land Day commemorated by Palestinians and Arab citizens of Israel.
He said the first Land Day was observed in 1976 and focused on a specific incident in which a parcel of land was taken from Palestinians who happened to be citizens of the state of Israel.
“They had no rights whatsoever to challenge the theft of their land, and since then, we have been seeing this marked on an annual basis,” al-Arian said. “We continue to witness this happening, not only 40 or 50 years ago, but today.”
