The United Nations, international and regional bodies are required to: • Condemn Israel’s persistent non-cooperation with UN mechanisms, including Commissions of Inquiry and Special Procedures; • Take effective measures to bring to an end Israeli impunity and to immediately end the systematic policy of denial of natural resources and services to Palestinians in the oPt and Israel; • Recognize that Israeli violations of IHL and IHRL are rooted in Israel’s prolonged military occupation of the oPt, which amounts to colonization. Declare that this regime of prolonged occupation, with its inherent features of racial discrimination and annexation, contradicts international law, and thwarts the pursuit of self-determination and justice for the Palestinian people. Relevant national and international actors should make every effort to: 88 • Apply appropriate legal terminology to the present day reality in the oPt. Particularly, identifying that practices attributable to Israel including denial of access to natural resources and essential services - and the resulting displacement, constitutes forcible transfer; • Continue to develop an understanding of what constitutes a ‘coercive environment’ for the purpose of identifying instances of forcible transfer of Palestinians inside the oPt; and apply a similar logical framework to Israel policies vis-à-vis Palestinians inside Israel; • Challenge Israel’s institutionalized discriminatory policies and practices by challenging its legal system imposed on Palestinian people which contradicts international norms and rules, and developing effective international protection system for Palestinians as it is evident that Israel is not only unwilling to fulfill its obligations, but is deliberately denying and violating the fundamental rights of the Palestinian people.
