Russell Tribunal States “Israel” an Apartheid Entity, Urges Int’l Interference
The Russell Tribunal on Palestinian found that "Israel's" practices against the Palestinian people violate the prohibition of apartheid under international laws.
Press TV correspondent reported that the Tribunal determined that the "Israeli" enemy is an "apartheid regime with an institutionalized system of domination as recognized under international law".
Moreover, the Tribunal declared that although the Palestinians living under the military rule of the occupation are subject to an aggravated form of apartheid, the apartheid system extends to "Israeli" treatment of Palestinian citizens within the occupied territories. It added that Tel Aviv's rule over the Palestinian people amounts to "a single integrated regime of apartheid".
Furthermore, the Russell Tribunal urged the "Israeli" enemy to dismantle this system and called upon the international community to put pressure on the occupation entity through imposing sanctions and severing ties.
The Tribunal also called upon the UN General Assembly to list banks, companies, organizations and other corporations that support the "Israeli" enemy. Meanwhile, the website of the tribunal was hacked while the sessions were ongoing in Cape Town, South Africa.
In addition, the "Israeli" entity announced that Knesset Arab member Hanine Zoabi will be stripped of her citizenship after testifying in the sessions.
Zaobi told Press TV, "We are demanding "Israel" to stop this racist system and to recognize equal rights for the Palestinians because it is our homeland; we didn't immigrate to "Israel"; it is "Israel" that immigrated to us".
