Forty four Israeli settlements have been built, in which some 20,000 Israeli settlers now live.

The Israeli authorities should give consideration to the ongoing discussion among Israeli authorities concerning the matter.

Taxing the Israeli Occupation

The Arab Israeli conflict

The Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and the northern West Bank marks an important landmark in Israeli Palestinian relations.

The expansion of the Israeli settlements has been accompanied by acts of violence and terrorism by Israeli settlers and the Israeli army against innocent Palestinians, in particular during the past five years.

An Israeli soldier was stabbed to death at the Qalandia checkpoint, and militants killed an Israeli settler near Hebron.

As at September, over 8,000 Palestinians remained in Israeli detention facilities distributed among 20 Israeli prisons and interrogation centres.

The solution to the Arab Israeli conflict continues to depend on ending the Israeli occupation of all Arab territories.

On 13 January 2005, shortly before the closing of the Karni goods crossing in the northern Gaza Strip, terrorists, using explosives, burst through to the Israeli side of the crossing and opened fire indiscriminately at Israeli civilians, including Israeli truck drivers that transport Palestinian goods to the Israeli market.

Israeli authorities have provided clear evidence that they will not allow Israeli extremists to prevent the plan from being carried out.

By far the largest component of German aid has been in the form of restitution payments for Nazi atrocities. Total German assistance to the Israeli government, Israeli individuals, and Israeli private institutions has been roughly 31 billion, or 5,345 per capita, bringing combined US and German assistance to almost 20,000 per Israeli.

Adding to such inflammatory and disappointing comments, the Israeli Prime Minister declared to the Knesset three days later that the Israeli commitment to the road map was conditional on the 14 Israeli reservations forwarded by his Government.

Reaffirming the illegality of the Israeli settlements in the territory occupied since 1967 and of Israeli actions aimed at changing the status of Jerusalem,

The violence included attacks by Palestinian militants against Israelis, clashes between Israeli security forces and Palestinian protestors and Israeli arrest operations against wanted militants.

In August 2004, the Israeli Government had granted over 2,000 construction permits to Israeli settlers, inevitably giving rise to increased settler violence against Palestinians.

The driving force behind the Israeli Government's decision to remove settlers from Gaza and to end the Israeli presence there is Israel's own interest.

The Israeli police, as well as Israeli legal system, regard any murder as such, and investigate it vigorously, regardless of the motives of the murderer.

In addition, he did not have access to Israeli information on the exact number of injury claims filed against the Israeli Government before the courts.

The removal of all Israeli settlements from the Gaza Strip and parts of the northern West Bank and the withdrawal of the Israeli army from the Gaza Strip were the most significant political developments in the Israeli Palestinian conflict of recent years.

While security concerns were the justification for the ill treatment of Palestinians without Israeli citizenship, she wondered how the Israeli Government could justify such discrimination against those Palestinians in possession of Israeli citizenship, who accounted for 20 per cent of the national population.

It demanded the unconditional return of all Israeli occupied Arab territories and stressed the illegality of all Israeli settlements in the Arab territories occupied since 1967.

As to the Advisory Opinion of ICJ, the Israeli High Court had asked for the Israeli Government's legal opinion, and the Government as always would cooperate.

The success of Israeli disengagement is of paramount importance.

Although the dismantling of Israeli settlements in Gaza was a significant step, the Israeli disengagement failed to recognize any Palestinian concerns and left many critical issues unresolved.

The Israeli representative had reaffirmed that the construction of the expansionist wall, or fence , as the Israeli Government calls it, was a security measure to prevent terrorism.

At the time of writing, more than 1,600 Palestinians have been killed, most of them civilians, by Israeli air and ground strikes. Three Israeli civilians have been killed by rocket or mortar fire from Gaza, and 64 Israeli soldiers have been killed since the ground invasion began.

But there is a Palestinian Sesame Street and an Israeli Sesame Street, and there are positive Arab Israeli characters in the Israeli version. And the creators of these programs, together with the filmmakers behind When Muppets Dream of Peace, offer important lessons for all of us.
