Israeli authorities have given the go-ahead for the
demolition of seven homes in the Jabal al-Mukabber area in
the southern part of Jerusalem Al-Quds.

According to Ma'an news agency, the homes that are
threatened with imminent demolition are the property of
Juma'a family and house 51 people, including 33 children.
The Jerusalem Al-Quds municipality and Israeli Interior
Ministry officials have already put the inhabitant on notice
and the eviction will be enforced within ten days.
"Israeli measures aim to force Palestinians in Jerusalem Al-
Quds to leave the city. These measures are part of a
systematic policy of ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem Al-Quds
's Palestinians," head of the Maqdisi Society, Muath al-
Za'tari, said.
Za'tari called on the Arab, Muslim and international
community to intervene to stop the ongoing Israeli ethnic
cleansing of Jerusalem Al-Quds.
Israel frequently orders Palestinians to leave their homes
in Jerusalem Al-Quds, claiming that they do not have proper
documentations for their houses. The move is part of its
Judaization campaign targeting the holy city.
The residents on the other hand argue that Israeli officials
have been withholding their documents or are refusing to
issue documents for their houses.
The status of Jerusalem Al-Quds is among the thorny issues
of the peace process with the Palestinians reiterating that
any Palestinian state should include the city as its
capital.
Israel captured the mostly Arab East Jerusalem Al-Quds in
1967 and later annexed it in a move not recognized by the
international community.
Tel Aviv continues to erect new homes in the occupied
Palestinian territory despite strong opposition from the
international community.
Muslim states and Palestinians insist that there would be no
peace in the Middle East until Israel quits East Jerusalem
Al-Quds so it can become the capital of an independent
Palestinian state.

The police arrested at least twenty-five people and
dispersed some 300 demonstrators, including Palestinians and
left-wing activists in the neighborhood on Friday afternoon,
Ynet reported.
The demonstrators were protesting the recent evacuation of
Palestinians following an Israeli court order.
Several Palestinian families have been evicted from the area
to make way for Israeli settlers who claim ownership.
"The police's conduct resembles a military regime. This
neighborhood cannot be under Jewish control," said a
demonstrator.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld confirmed that several
people were arrested for staging what he called unauthorized
demonstration.
Last week, Israeli police arrested 21 people, including
Israeli and foreign activists, during a similar protest in
the East Jerusalem Al-Quds neighborhood.
Israel captured east Jerusalem in the 1967 Six Day War and
later annexed it in a move not recognized by the
international community.
The regime claims the holy city as its "eternal,
indivisible" capital, while the Palestinians want at least
the implementation of the UN resolutions which give control
of the eastern part of the city to them.

A government, of Israel, by Israel, and, for: Israel.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:
for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. The light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give thee light. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
