JERUSALEM: The State of Palestine has condemned in the strongest terms the racist and heinous remarks made by Israel’s fascist Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, which only confirms Israel’s apartheid regime of Jewish supremacy and racial terror against the Palestinian population.
In a statement, it said Ben-Gvir’s racist remarks and continued incitement against the Palestinian people are the ultimate result of 75 years of Israeli hatemongering, rooted in the Nakba and sustained by Israel’s illegal occupation and oppression which institutionally dehumanizes and relegates the Palestinian people to an inhuman status.
The State of Palestine recalls that Israel, to which it recognizes as the occupying power, occupying forces, its officials and settler militias have no sovereignty or right to any part of Palestine. “The rights of the Palestinian people to live as free and independent people in their homeland, in dignity, in peace and security, are universally recognized and enshrined,” said a statement.
Israel’s systematic hate speech, violence and dehumanization of the Palestinian people and provocative rhetoric across decades are inciting mass violence at unprecedented levels. “Ben-Gvir and Israeli officials must be sanctioned and held accountable for inciting violence and destruction and knowingly leading and contributing to the mass persecution of the Palestinian people,” the statement added.
