  • Absentee Property Law of 1950 Was Meant to Serve As the Legal Basis to Transfer the Property of Palestinian Refugees Into the Possession of the State of Israel
    Absentees against Their Will – Property Expropriation in East Jerusalem under the Absentee Property Law July 2010 Introduction The Absentee Property Law of 1950 was meant to serve as the legal basis to transfer the property of Palestinian refugees into the possession of the State of Israel. The law says that the land and property of Palestinian residents and nationals of Arab countries who, from November 29, 1947 until a declaration that the state of emergency declared in 1948 ended [which has not yet happened] were in one of the Arab countries, or "in any part of the Land of Israel that is outside of the area of Israel," would revert to the possession of the Custodian of Absentee Property, meaning, to the possession of the State.1 Following the annexation of East Jerusalem in 1967, and as a result the application of all of the laws of Israel -- including the Absentee Property Law -- to the annexed area, a problematic situation arose in which the property of almost all the Palestinian residents of the city became, in fact, absentee property, because those residents were at the time to which the law refers citizens of Jordan, then an enemy country, who resided in "a part of the Land of Israel that [was] outside of the area of Israel." To contend with this problematic situation, section 3 of the Law and Administration Ordinance 5730-1970 provides that the law does not apply to residents of East Jerusalem who "on the day of the incidence of the order of application of the law was in the area of its application and was a resident thereof."2 Therefore, only residents who were physically present in East Jerusalem on the day of annexation are not considered absentees.

THE ASTRO-NOMOS: ON INTERNATIONAL LEGAL PARADIGMS AND THE LEGAL STATUS OF THE WEST BANK ORNA BEN-NAFTALI RAFI REZNIK ABSTRACT The continuous Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territory may well have exhausted the international community and exasperated the Palestinians, but it still stimulates the Israeli legal imagination. In 2012, the Israeli government established an expert committee to examine the status of Jewish construction in the West Bank. The committee’s report concluded that from an international legal perspective, the West Bank is not occupied territory; the law of belligerent occupation is not applicable to the area; the “prevailing view” is that Jewish settlements are lawful; and that Israel has a valid claim to sovereignty over the territory.

The report is the product of a three-member blue-ribbon panel headed by retired High Court of Justice magistrate Edmond Levy and including former Foreign Ministry legal advisor Alan Baker and former Tel Aviv District Court Deputy President Tchia Shapira. It was Edmond Levy commissioned by Prime Minister Netanyahu in January, ostensibly to guide him through the legal thickets raised by the allegedly unauthorized “Outpost” construction which has fueled the demolition of Jewish homes in places like Amona and Ulpana. The resultant Levy Report, as it has become known, went a lot further.

  • The Arab Association for Human Rights and Can, Therefore, in No Way Be Taken to Reflect the Official Opinion of the European Union and ICCO
    On the Margins Annual Review of Human Rights Violations of the Arab Palestinian Minority in Israel 2006 اﻟﻤﺆﺳﺴﺔ اﻟﻌﺮﺑﻴﺔ ﻟﺤﻘﻮق اﻹﻧﺴﺎن האגודה הערבית לזכויות האדם Arab Association for Human Rights 1 Written by Tarek Ibrahim, Adv. Translated (from Hebrew) by Shaul Vardi Published in June 2007 Cover Photo: Home Demolition in the Naqab, 2006. This report has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union and ICCO. The views expressed in this report are those of the Arab Association for Human Rights and can, therefore, in no way be taken to reflect the official opinion of the European Union and ICCO. The Arab Association for Human Rights (HRA) was founded in 1988 by a group of lawyers and community activists to promote and protect the civil and political, economic, social and cultural rights of the Palestinian Arab minority in Israel from an international human-rights perspective. In 2003, the HRA expanded its activities to include a human-rights monitoring program, whose methodology relies on field research and interviews and legal analysis of the domestic and international human-rights standards. The idea of establishing a Research and Reporting program was first developed by the HRA in the wake of the events of October 2000, when 13 Palestinian Arabs (twelve citizens of Israel and one from the Occupied Palestinian Territories) were killed by state police forces. Since that time, a steady trickle of serious and often physical human-rights abuses against minority citizens means that the need for human-rights documentation and reporting of these abuses is more vital than ever.
