\u201cThe echoes of District Six, however, are not isolated in the Naqab. Throughout Israel and Palestine, the state is continuing its process of population transfer to transform the ethnic landscape. Since 1993, at least 11,000 Palestinian Arabs from East Jerusalem had their residency status revoked due to government claims that their \u201ccenter of life\u201d is no longer in the city (this policy is not applied to Jews). In Jaffa and Akka, gentrification is deliberately employed to pressure Arab residents out of their neighborhoods and bring Jewish residents in their place. The uprooting of Palestinians in the South Hebron Hills, Jordan Valley and the rest of Area C aims to clear the land for Jewish settlements across the Occupied West Bank.<\/p>\n

These racial policies are increasingly being consolidated into Israel\u2019s legislation. In alarming resonance of South Africa\u2019s \u201cGroup Areas Act\u201d, the Admissions Committees Law (2011) allows communities in Israel to reject housing applicants based on \u201csocial suitability\u201d and the \u201csocial and cultural fabric\u201d of the town \u2013 implicitly sanctioning discrimination based on ethnicity, religion, and other such criteria to preserve communal segregation. Meanwhile, members of the current Knesset are proposing various drafts of a \u201cJewish identity bill,\u201d which aim to reserve the right of self-determination exclusively to Jews, with some versions explicitly ordering the Israeli courts to prioritize the \u201cJewish\u201d nature of the state over democratic principles in their decisions. Such legislation not only seeks to erase the national identity and history of the Palestinian people, but will make it even harder for Arabs on both sides of the Green Line to defend their homes before the courts, which have continually failed to protect their basic rights from Israel\u2019s actions.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
