LONDON, (PIC)– The Arab Organization for Human Rights in London has revealed that the Netherlands had blocked the official issuance of a European report condemning Jewish settlers’ violations against Palestinian civilians.
The organization said in a statement on Friday that the Rights Forum founded by the former Dutch PM Andreas van Agt leaked the European report about the settlers’ violations in the occupied Palestinian territories in April last year, which was modified last February.
The European report stated that the occupied Palestinian territories are witnessing a significant increase in Jewish settlers’ violence against the Palestinian people and their properties especially in villages adjacent to settlements.
The settlers’ attacks include random shootings on Palestinian civilians, closing streets, damaging crops, including the destruction of about 10,000 trees, in addition to assaulting children while playing in streets or during school trips where four children were killed by settlers in 2010-2011, the report said, adding that most of the cases brought against the settlers were closed without charge.
The statement of the Arab Organization condemned the Dutch attitude towards the report, describing it as “promiscuous and illegal”, and asked Holland to take the position of the European Union and the international community that condemns settlements in the occupied Palestinian land as “unethical and illegitimate”.
