Negative Impressions Unjustified, Israel Tells Fourth Committee;<\/u><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Others Say Land Confiscation, New Settlements Still Impede Progress<\/u><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The ongoing political process between Israel and the Palestinians, and peace-building between the  two peoples, should  put into proper perspective the  negative  impressions  in the report of the Special Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices Affecting the Human Rights of the Palestinian People and Other Arabs of the Occupied Territories, the representative of Israel told the Fourth Committee (Special Political and Decolonization) this morning.  The Fourth Committee was concluding its consideration of that report.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The  Israeli representative said the Special Committee report, and related draft resolutions, told a tale of conflict, but did  not say a word  about the effort to heal the wounds of that conflict.  The report revealed itself to be yet another regrettable and one- sided propaganda exercise held at the expense of the Â鶹APP, as well as the cost of the cause for peace.  The representative of the United States said the Special Committee's existence was now inconsistent with the joint efforts that Israel and the Palestinians were making to resolve their differences.   This was not  the time for resolutions which  would detract from the  peace process, in  which the recent Wye River Memorandum represented a major step forward.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The representative of the Observer Mission for Palestine said the Wye River Memorandum was a source of hope that the situation would soon become better, but the Israeli Government had not chosen that path.  With Government permission, Jewish  settlers  had  resumed work at a planned settlement in the heart of the Arab sector of Jerusalem.  There had been further confiscation of Palestinian land.  The violent  behaviour of the settlers had persisted.  The peace process would continue to suffer as long as Israel continued to  violate international law, international humanitarian law and the relevant Â鶹APP resolutions, which must be respected.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The representative of Syria said it was crystal clear that Israel did  not want genuine peace but only a peace which would enable it to serve its own interests  and to continue occupying Arab lands.  The current Israeli Government had shown no interest in implementing agreements between its predecessor and the Palestinian side.  He asked what  would happen if  all governments reneged on commitments entered into by preceding governments.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Statements were also made by the  representatives of Senegal, Cuba, Ghana, Qatar, Jordan, Tunisia and Lebanon.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The Fourth Committee will meet this afternoon at 3 p.m. to take action on a total  of 12 draft resolutions relating to the activities of the Â鶹APP Relief and Works  Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) and to the report of the Special Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Committee Work Programme<\/u><\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The Fourth Committee (Special Political and Decolonization) met this morning to  continue its  general debate on the report of the Special Committee to Investigate Israeli  Practices Affecting the Human  Rights of the Palestinian People  and other Arabs of the Occupied Territories. (For more details see Press Release GA\/SPD\/152 of 18 November.)<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Statements<\/u><\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>IBRA DEGUENE KA (Senegal) said hope was reborn by the recent signing of the Wye River Memorandum.  Despite the breakthrough, there  was still much to  be  done,  especially  in  upgrading the living conditions of the Palestinian  people.   He said legal changes in recent months had been implemented  to change facts on the ground, and to  make the Arab majority a minority, because of expulsion from their homes and the influx of  settlers.  When those measures were  added to the confiscation  of property, frequent human  rights violations,  difficult prison conditions, and the closures of Palestinian territories,  it  was not easy to be optimistic about the prospects for peace.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>After Wye, he said, Israel should do what it could to take confidence-building measures.   The  Palestinian people had hoped  the peace agreements would  improve their  situation and affect  their human  rights.  The concerned  parties, with the help  of the  international community, must urgently continue their dialogue.  The rights of  the Palestinian people and population  in the  occupied territories  must  be  respected.   The Special Committee to investigate  Israeli practices  still had the delicate  mission of accompanying the peace process.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>FEDA ABDELHADY, Observer, Mission for Palestine, said the current  Israeli Government  had maintained  its  stranglehold on the Palestinian economy, including the  imposition of  closures and  restrictions on  the freedom  of movement of persons and  goods.   It had  obstructed the  path for  genuine economic development, causing severe deterioration in the living conditions of the Palestinian people.  Such collective  measures not  only violated fundamental freedom of movement, they also  violated freedom of worship and education, and resulted in  the suffocation  of the  Palestinian people and dismemberment of Palestinian  territorial integrity.  Moreover, the Israeli Government had continued its campaign to  Judaize occupied East  Jerusalem, making changes  to its legal status, character and demographic composition.  It abrogated the rights of Palestinian Jerusalemites to live in their city through the illegal confiscation of their identity cards.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>She said several forms of collective  punishment, aside from the closures, had continued during the period under review, including the demolition of homes, the imposition  of curfews and administrative detentions.  Harassment and   physical ill-treatment also   persisted, as did killings and assassinations by Israeli authorities.  Palestinian political prisoners  who remained in Israeli jails were still subject to  torture and other forms  of ill-treatment and  human rights  violations.   All  those Israeli  practices were in blatant violation of  the Fourth Geneva Convention on the protection of civilians  in  wartime, which was applicable to all of the occupied territories, including Jerusalem.  The Security Council had adopted  25 resolutions in which it had affirmed  the applicability of the Convention to the territories occupied by Israel since 1967, including Jerusalem. Only Israel rejected that.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>She said the deadlock in the peace process had continued throughout the review period.  The Wye River Memorandum of 23 October had become a source of hope that the situation would soon become  better, but the Israeli Government had not chosen to genuinely proceed down that path.  With government permission, Jewish settlers had  resumed  work  at a  planned settlement in the heart of the Arab sector of Jerusalem at Ras al-Amud.  In addition, Israeli officials had announced the  building of 200 housing units on the edge of a Jewish settlement in Al-Khalil (Hebron). <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The confiscation of more Palestinian land, the exploitation and theft  of natural  resources, the transfer of more settlers into  the  occupied territory, and  the  building  of  bypass  roads for use by the illegal settlers, as well as the violent behaviour of the settlers, had persisted.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>She said it was still Palestine's strongest  hope that  the prevailing situation would soon change, but  the peace process would continue to suffer as  long  as Israel  continued to  violate international  law, international humanitarian law and the relevant United  Nations resolutions, which must be respected.  In addition, the Israeli side must comply  with the its contractual obligations under the agreements reached.  Those were the requirements for progress in the peace process and for a genuine improvement in the living conditions and  the situation of the  human rights of the Palestinian people.  Palestine regretted the refusal of Israel to cooperate with the Special Committee.  The Â鶹APP had a  permanent responsibility towards  the question of Palestine  and the Committee's work would continue to  be of importance to the international community until the Israeli occupation was brought to an end.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>DAVID ZOHAR (Israel) said the Special Committee's report, was yet another regrettable and one-sided propaganda exercise, held annually at the  expense of the  Â鶹APP  and of the cause for peace.  The only redeeming feature of that report  was a brief preambular reference to the Declaration of  Principles signed by  Israel and  the Palestine  Liberation Organization (PLO) in 1993, and to subsequent bilateral agreements. <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said  the key to peace, as shown again  by the  recent Wye Memorandum, relied  on patient negotiations, not in a litany of sterile vilification.  What was  remarkable was  that the peace process  should have come  so far, with  all its difficulties, despite the rhetoric to which  Israel had been subjected by that Committee. <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Israel did not need that  barrage of words and paper to propel it  towards peace.    Israel  expressed  its  concern at the pointlessness of that ritualized  exercise, and  regretted the waste of  time and  money it represented.  It requested all peace-loving  Member States to encourage the Palestinian side to move forward towards the attainment of a true, just and lasting peace.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The people of the Middle East all shared a cultural legacy that  embraced a desire for peace, he said.  Such wisdom was not to be found in the draft resolutions before the Fourth Committee.  However, those resolutions would not continue to guide the concerned parties  when the debates and documents of the Committee were long forgotten. <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>In the ongoing political process,  Israel had transferred actual authority and  responsibility for more than 98 per cent  of the Palestinian population in  the  West Bank  and Gaza Strip to the Palestinian  Authority.  The transferred powers included legislative, judicial and executive powers  over virtually all civil spheres of government.  The  Palestinian Authority therefore, had the duty, together with the ability and responsibility, to discharge its  powers in a manner  consistent with internationally  accepted norms.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He spoke of the recently concluded  Wye River Memorandum, noting agreement on additional percentages of  territory which, in the coming weeks, would be transferred  to Palestinian jurisdiction and actual control.  Israel had made tangible  concessions, while  in  exchange  receiving  intangible  and reversible concessions in return.  Nonetheless,  Israel was determined to go forward with the process for the sake of peace and security of  future generations.  He said  his country was keenly aware of the dangers in transferring  actual  powers and responsibilities, without  adding  some proviso as to the need to ensure human rights guarantees to all  individuals in the territories being transferred.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The documents before the  Committee told a tale of conflict, he said.  Not a word was  said about the effort to heal the wounds of that conflict.  Israel hoped that by next year,  the  annual report  on Israeli  practices would be more a balanced, comprehensive and fair  portrayal of  the facts.  Meanwhile, Israel and the  Palestinians would  continue with practical and meaningful components of peace-building  between the two peoples, despite all  attempts to obstruct the course of peace by  hostile and biased propaganda.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>RAFAEL DAUSA  (Cuba) said solidarity with  the Palestinian  people was  a matter of principle.  Cuba had the same moral obligation towards the other Arab peoples  who  were  suffering  because  their   territory  was  under occupation.  The Special Committee had  presented a  broad  but  dismaying vision of the human  rights of the Palestinian people and those of the other Arab people of occupied territories being  trampled underfoot.  A settlement of the Middle East conflict  required final settlement of the Palestinian  problem, which was the cornerstone of that  conflict.  There could not  be a just and lasting peace when the lands of those people remained under occupation.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>On the  Fourth Geneva Convention relative  to the  protection of civilians in wartime,  he said  the Security Council  had, in  25 resolutions  adopted over the years, reaffirmed its applicability  to the occupied territory, but Israel had not accepted  that.  Last  year the Israeli Government had  begun building a  settlement in  East Jerusalem.   In  the absence  of a  Security Council statement on that matter, the General Assembly had met in emergency session  and  called for the convening of a conference of the  High Contracting Parties to consider measures  to strengthen the application  of the Geneva Conventions to situations such as that in the Middle East.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said the signing of the Madrid peace  agreement  had revived  the international community's  hope that there would be significant progress in the peace process, but so far the world  had only witnessed obstacles being placed   in the  way of  peace.   Only full  compliance with  the Wye  River Memorandum  would give the  Middle East  peace efforts real  content.  There must be a final settlement of the problem; until then, the Special Committee must continue to implement its mandate.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>YAW OSEI (Ghana) said the  Special Committee's  report detailed  policies and  practices by the Israeli Government  which clearly  infringed upon the basic tenets  of international  humanitarian law, in particular the  Geneva Convention relative to  the Protection of Civilian  Persons in Time of War, and the international standards of human  rights, particularly the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant of Human Rights.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He  asked  how the international community could justify a deliberate policy of land expropriation; restrictions with  regard to land, housing and water; environmental damage through improper waste disposal from settlements; burial of atomic waste on occupied lands; harassment of women, children and  students; removal of persons  from their homes and demolition of the  latter; separation  of families and even  spouses; unfair arrests; detention, torture and trial and imprisonment without due legal representation, or respect  for the basic principle of justice; and restrictions on movement within, from and re-entry into occupied lands.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said the reasons of containing threats to Israel's overall security could  hardly  justify such abuses, since the prevailing environment  of security in the Middle East was a direct consequence of those policies and practices.  It was against that background that Ghana welcomed the Wye River Memorandum as a positive step in the peace  process.  The endorsement of the land-for-peace plan should dictate a full commitment to the  implementation by all sides of Security Council resolutions 242 (1967), 338 (1973) and 425 (1978), which formed the  basis of  the Middle East peace  process, and the immediate and  scrupulous implementation of  all agreements reached  between the parties,  including the  redeployment of Israeli forces from the West Bank.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said Ghana welcomed the announcement of the start  this morning of final status  negotiations.  Ghana believed that the process of implementation should be devoid of public  utterances by both sides that could discourage, rather than encourage, goodwill and trust, which were essential for the attainment of durable peace.  The cooperation  of the Israeli Government with the Special Committee in its future work would go a long way to enhance the peace process, and  Ghana looked forward to such  a development.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>DOUGLAS  KEENE (United States) said the draft resolutions before the Committee  under Agenda Item 84 — the Special Committee  to Investigate Israel Practices — did not reflect current reality nor did they contribute to the peace process.  The Wye Memorandum, signed 23 October, represented a major step  forward in the peace process.  With the ratification of the Memorandum by the Israeli Knesset on 17 November, work on implementation  of all the Memorandum's provisions should soon be on  course.  At the end of that implementation period, the parties would enter  into permanent status talks.  It was  the  international community's responsibility to assist in building momentum for that renewal of confidence, not to lessen it.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said the United States called upon Member  States to delete  the standard request  for the Special Committee to continue its work and report next year.  Everyone should  recognize that the Special Committee's existence was now inconsistent with the joint efforts that Israel and the Palestinians were making to resolve their differences.  The  Special Committee's  work  stood to damage prospects for the intense diplomatic efforts now going on to inject momentum into the peace process.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The United States reaffirmed its support for the Fourth Geneva Convention of 12 August 1949 as it applied to the territories occupied  by Israel since 1967.  However, it opposed the specific reference  to Jerusalem in the draft resolutions.  He said it was not the time  for resolutions  which would detract  from the peace  process.   Rather, Governments which supported the peace  process should look  for opportunities  to create  an environment for reconciliation between  the two  parties and help to attain the goal of a just, lasting and comprehensive peace in the region.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>HAMAD  AL-THANI (Qatar) said  the report of the Special Committee showed the  serious human rights violations Israel had perpetrated against the Palestinian people.  The illegal  expansion of settlements was  aimed at changing  demographic   reality  on  Arab lands,  particularly with the settlements around Jerusalem whose recent construction was a serious blow to the peace process.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He  said  blocking and closures of the  occupied  territories, and  the destruction of  homes, were  all crimes  against international law and the Fourth Geneva Convention.  No negotiations were possible unless Israel halted such  policies.  Those disastrous measures had hampered  confidence-building measures in the occupied territories.  Such behaviour only  proved that the Israeli goal was to occupy more Arab territory.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Qatar called for international pressure to  make Israel comply with Â鶹APP  resolutions 242 and 338, and the principles of the land-for-peace formula  set in the  Madrid  Conference in 1991.  Moreover, he  said, additional financial contributions, apart from Â鶹APP funding,  were needed to continue the work towards a just peace for  the  Palestinian people.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>THAMER ABDALLA ADWAN (Jordan) said that  Israeli practices detailed in the Special Committee's  report prejudiced  the daily living  conditions of  the Palestinian people and those of other Arab people in occupied lands.  Those practices went further  to damage the  freedom of movement, worship and education.  They also  ran  counter  to  internationally acceptable  human rights  standards,  and  to the orientation towards the creation of an appropriate atmosphere that was conducive to the Middle East peace process.  It was  important to build confidence among the population after decades of turmoil.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said the greatest source of tension in the occupied territories was the construction of settlements and the  annexation of  Jerusalem and other Arab  territories occupied by Israel since 1967.  The confiscation of land and the construction of  settlements on it meant that Israel did not  comply with agreements reached with the  Palestinian side.  Jordan was committed to peace and would not go back on that commitment as it was  the only strategic option.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Jordan hoped the Wye River Memorandum  would enhance peace negotiations on the Palestinian track as  well as on  the other  tracks.  Israel was called upon  to deal with the Palestinians as  partners and  not as  an  occupied people.  It was  necessary to find just  and  lasting  peace so they could achieve self-determination with their own homeland.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>MOHAMED SALAH  TEKAYA (Tunisia) said the  report of  the Special Committee was filled with facts showing that Israel had  continued to  violate the human  rights of  Palestinian people  in  the occupied  territories, actions which were  against the recent agreements signed with the Palestinians.  It also showed the scope of  Israeli colonization.  The  confiscation of agricultural  land  to  expand its  economy,  and to build roads only for settlers, had deprived the  rightful owners of the  land from their rightful income.   Restrictions of  Palestinian housing  had once  again revealed  an Israeli attempt to change the demographic make-up of Jerusalem.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Recent information showed that the Israeli Government had asked the courts for  permission to build new settlements in Arab lands.  That behaviour went against resolutions at last  year's emergency session of  the General Assembly.  He said the Special Committee  played an important watchdog role in informing the international  community of abuses by  Israel in the occupied territories.  It was therefore important for the  Special Committee  to  continue its activities as long as Israeli practices persisted.  The international  community must accelerate  efforts to  allow people to regain their rights.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>ADNAN MANSOUR (Lebanon) said his country had suffered greatly from Israel's hostile  acts and expansionist aims.  Thousands of Lebanese refugees had left the country or had to flee from Israeli practices.  Arbitrary measures  taken by  Israel violated human rights,  particularly in Lebanon.  He said  the Israeli authorities were  trying to  wipe away  the Syrian identity of the 20,000 Syrian Arabs living in the Golan Heights, he said.  Israel had also abducted Lebanese civilians and taken them to camps within Israeli territory,  which constituted illegal arrests without indictments.  The defendants did not have the means to defend themselves. <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said the  "blind shelling" of unarmed villages had killed many civilians and caused  others to flee their homes into exile.  Moreover, Israel had established zones to deprive the Arab inhabitants of a source of income by, for  example, stealing  soil that was  then delivered to Israeli territory to enrich the land there.  Israel must cease such activities  and begin to implement international treaties.  Only the international community could pressure Israel to accept international law.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>MIKHAIL WEHBE  (Syria) said it  was 31 years since  the Israeli aggression of  1967,  which  had  resulted in the occupation of  the Syrian  Golan, Jerusalem\/Al Quds, southern Lebanon and the western Bekaa.  Israel did not want to return the land.  The ferocity of the occupation was increasing, and for  all  those years  Israel  had  undertaken policies  that blatantly breached international  law,  United  Nations  resolutions, international humanitarian law  and the International Convention on Economic and Social Rights, among others.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said any attempt to detract from  the work of the Special  Committee or to silence it would  only provide Israel with cover to continue and increase its  illegal policies in  the occupied territories.   The Special Committee must be  provided with  the necessary  resources and professional staff  to enable it to continue its work like other committees.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>In that regard,  he added, Syria expressed extreme dissatisfaction  with the  late  submission of the Special Committee's  report  to  the Fourth  Committee, in breach of the rule stating that reports should be submitted six weeks in advance of consideration.  That  error must not be repeated  in the future.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He said the situation in the Syrian Golan had deteriorated  as a result of Israel's  terrorist  acts.  For years, Israel had deliberately  defied international conventions in its attempts to annex the Golan and seize its resources.  The occupation forces had  expelled the Golan's Arab  population who had once numbered 130,000.  Those forces  were now planting colonies  of settlers from all over the world who had no relation to the area.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>He  said Israel was  levying heavy taxes that  the local inhabitants could not afford.  The  occupation forces had committed  a number of measures that damaged  the environment,  including the  dumping of  nuclear substances and industrial  waste.  Scores  of Syrian citizens were in Israeli prisons and detention centres.  Oppression was increasing in  severity, including torture and killings.  It was crystal clear that Israel did not want genuine peace but only a peace which would enable it  to  serve its  own interests and to continue occupying Arab lands.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The  current Israeli  Government had  shown  clearly  that it was  not interested  in implementing the agreements reached  between  the  previous government  and the Palestinian side.  What would happen if all governments reneged on the commitments and agreements  entered into by preceding governments?  The world would be in  a real mess.  Genuine peace could not go hand-in-hand  with  the  occupation  of  the  lands  of  others  and the suppression of peoples' rights.<\/p><\/div>\n
