British website: Jerusalem is on the verge of erupting … and other indications of an uprising are on the horizon

British journalist David Hearst warned that the situation in occupied Jerusalem has come to the brink of an explosion, due to the oppressive practices of the Israeli occupation authorities in the Holy City and the rest of the territories occupied in 1948.

Hearst said that the Palestinians who have been abandoned by the international community, whose cause has been neglected by the media and who have been betrayed by many Arab countries, and who live under a leadership that ignores their issues and does not meet their needs, have now their fate in their hands, and in the streets they have gone out to as it always is.

An earthquake shakes Israel

In an article for the British Middle East Eye website , which he works as its editor-in-chief, Hearst criticized the announcement of Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of former US President Donald Trump and his Middle East envoy, the end of the Arab-Israeli conflict in an article in the Wall Street Journal. Street Journal about a month ago.

He pointed out that Kushner was wrong when he announced that the “political earthquake” launched by the recent wave of Arab normalization with Israel was not over yet, and that the world “is witnessing the last chapters of what is known as the Arab-Israeli conflict.”

The truth, and speaking to Hearst, is that the project to establish the Jewish state of Israel was never in danger as it is now when its owners believed that they were on the cusp of victory, because the real rumbling earthquake is not the one that signals the end of the conflict, as Kushner claimed, and is not simmering in the West Bank or In the Gaza Strip, it shakes the pillars of Israel in Jerusalem and the occupied territories in 1948, as there is no wall or checkpoint that protects Israel from its consequences.

He pointed out that the decision to prevent Palestinians from sitting in the Al-Aqsa courtyards and in front of the Column Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem, where they used to sit after praying in the Al-Aqsa Mosque, was the spark that sparked the confrontations between the Palestinians and the Israeli occupation forces that Jerusalem witnessed recently.

Tension on several fronts

Hearst said that despite the many serious threats facing Jerusalemites and Arabs of Israel, who are subjected to an organized ethnic cleansing campaign and are forced to demolish or expel their homes, the attempt to close the Al-Aqsa yards was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

The article touched on many acts of Israeli repression against the Arabs of Israel and Jerusalemites at the present time, and protests denouncing the practices of the occupation in those areas, including the confrontations between Palestinians and Israelis in Jaffa and the city of Umm al-Fahm and several other Arab cities in the Northern Triangle and the Galilee, where tens of thousands of Palestinians demonstrate on Friday. The eighth in a row, to protest the police’s failure to intervene to stop settler gang violence against them.

He also referred to the efforts of the Israeli authorities to displace the residents of the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in the city of Jerusalem and transfer the ownership of the neighborhood to settlement associations.

Waiting for the next spark

According to the article, the Palestinian demonstrators are young men who do not know fear and do not take the command of a leader, and do not consider themselves Israeli citizens, but Palestinians whose lands and rights have been taken over by Israel. Advertising

Hearst predicted that Jerusalem would witness another uprising, and said that “there is fuel in the air, and it will not be long before another spark occurs. Jerusalem is on the verge of an explosion.”

The British writer concluded his article by calling on the international community, especially the administration of US President Joe Biden, to intervene to prevent the bloodshed in Jerusalem, and asked whether Israel’s international allies would wait for the bloodshed that will inevitably accompany the new intifada before they intervene to calm the situation.
