Issued its first settlers
Settlement… The other face of the occupation of the demographic…
Centered over the past few months on the issue of settlements, "Israeli" in the Palestinian territories, especially in the city of Jerusalem, and went by many in the media need to be dismantled as being one of the symbols and features of occupation and claims under the administration of Barrack Obama a settlement freeze "Israeli" in the West Bank, rejected the Netanyahu government Therefore, emerged an urgent need to clarify the idea and philosophy of the settlement is "Israel" in Palestine in its historical context, where the settlement is "Israeli" the other side of the process of occupation and complementary Judaizing the occupied Palestinian and unloading of its Arab population.
In the view of literature in the Zionist settlements fundamental basis of the strategy for controlling demographic, and control over land, not to mention the security zone and economic community of the Zionist settlements, designed to accommodate the largest number of Jewish immigrants in the Palestinian territories of the breach in the demographic balance in favor of conversion at the end of the day, have been subjected settlement activity, "Israeli" Platform for a gradual process of expansion is not specific and clear a patch clearly demonstrated by Ben-Gurion statement «the borders of" Israel "be designated for future generations».
Remarkably, the waves of Jewish immigration has helped in achieving the target demographic for the settlement of which is the basis of population policy and Zionism in Palestine, and has received the first wave of Jewish immigration between 1882 - 1903 migrated about ten thousand Jews of Russia in the wake of the assassination of the Czar of Russia and followed by operations persecution of Jews there, and between 1904 - 1918 the wave II, and the number of immigrants to 85 thousand immigrants, then the third wave occurred between 1919 to 1923 after the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, and the number of immigrants in this wave of about 35 thousand migrants have been wave the fourth between the year 1924 - 1932, migrated about 62 thousand immigrants because the United States to enact laws limiting immigration to, and the fifth wave was between 1933 to 1938 as the number of migrants at this stage about 164000 immigrants because of the displacement camps solution Jewish in Nazi occupied areas, and besides these waves there were migrations undercover operation by the Jewish areas of the Nazi occupation, and by these waves there were migrations undercover operation by the Sephardic Jews (Sephardim) from different parts of Yemen, Ethiopia and North Africa, Turkey and Iran, in the period forties, because of the British Mandate authorities to impose restrictions on Jewish immigration, drawing closer to the Arabs to stand beside them in World War II, has reached the outcome of Jewish immigration to Palestine until 1948, about 650 thousand Jewish immigrants.
After the so-called State of "Israel" have encouraged Jewish immigration by enacting several laws such as the Law of Return in 1950 and the Nationality Law, "Israel" in 1952 alone increased the number of immigrants, amounting, in the period from 1948 to 1967 (1.3) million immigrants did not stop migration, although declines due to decline after the push and pull factors to occupied Palestine, and established that the golden years of immigration was after 1948 In the nineties of the twentieth century, where it formed exodus of Jews from the former Soviet Union the largest percentage of the total Jewish immigrants and, in general migration contributed about 65 per cent of the total population increase of the Jews in Palestine during the period 1948 - 1960 as well as is the case for the period 1990 - 2000, however, that migration declined during the period 2000 - 2009 because the bulk of the world's Jews are concentrated in the areas of non-repellent, such as the United States, France, Britain, Canada and obtained some migration from these countries will not exceed the number a few hundred, compared to about 176 thousand immigrants in some years nineties of the last century.
The above is clear that the settlement of a crucial role in the Zionist project in Palestine, the Zionist movement succeeded based on the idea and philosophy of the settlement, which came from overseas, with the announcement of the creation of Israel in May 1948 to 77% of historic Palestine and the amount of 27009 kg square kilometers, and was able to expel Israel from the Palestinians most of the population after it had committed many massacres and the destruction of more than 400 Palestinian villages and cities.
And the massacres committed against the defenseless Palestinians Ballad al-Sheikh massacre in the district of the city of Haifa, and the massacre at Deir Yassin, Kafr Kassem in the district of the city of Jerusalem, and became displaced Palestinians live as refugees in neighboring Arab countries and within Palestine in the West Bank and Gaza, and continue to be far in spite of the adoption of resolution 194 and resolution last fifty calls for the need to return to their homeland as soon as possible.
On the other hand opened the doors of Jewish immigration to the wide flowing a lot of Jews from around the world, and this situation continues until the war from the fifth in June 1967, which was the most important results of complete control "of Israel" in the Palestinian territories in the West Bank and Gaza, and thus new window of opportunity for "Israel" the Zionist plans for follow-up to the Judaization of Palestine through the settlement activity, which began in the nineteenth century, despite the dismantling of settlements from the Gaza Strip because of the high cost and the struggle of the people of Gaza term, but that did not stop settlement activity in the West Bank, including Jerusalem, which is facing the biggest settlement "Israel" since 1967, and in this context, studies indicate that settlement activity "Israeli" in the West Bank led to the construction of 151 settlement "Israeli" with more than three hundred thousand settlers "Israeli", in addition to the 26 settlements damage to Jerusalem with two chains of all actors, and with about 190 thousand settlers, "Israeli", and there are plans to impose a settlement proceedings "Israeli" in the West Bank and within the Arab neighborhoods of Jerusalem.
