The constringing policy by the Israeli occupation authorities of confiscating Palestinian lands can only be regarded as a violation of all international conventions and agreements like:
The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights:
2. “All peoples may, for their own ends, freely dispose of their natural wealth and resources without prejudice to any obligations arising out of international economic co-operation, based upon the principle of mutual benefit, and international law. In no case may a people be deprived of its own means of subsistence.”
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights:
Article 17: " (1) Everyone has the right to own property alone as well as in association with others.
(2) No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his property."
