1. Summary

In order to pave the way for future reconciliation, all claims arising out of the conflict should be settled. Reaching a comprehensive and sustainable peace agreement requires that the wrongs committed during the conflict are addressed and redressed. Israel has been responsible for countless acts, policies and practices that violate established norms based on international law and that cause severe harm to us and our future state. Among Israel’s most notable violations are its continuing violation of the our right to self-determination, its creeping settlement enterprise, unlawful exploitation of our water and other natural resources, environmental pollution and damages, loss of and damage to cultural property, misuse of our financial resources, and gross and systematic human rights violations. The current and ongoing suffering, severe economic underdevelopment and poverty in the oPt are the direct results of illegal Israeli acts and omissions committed throughout the prolonged Israeli military occupation of our territory.
