Beit Hanina, East Jerusalem - house demolition on 28-07-08

Beit Hanina, East Jerusalem - house demolition on 28-07-08:

"Israel Occupation Forces (IOF) demolished a house in Beit Hanina, East Jerusalem (Palestine) on the pretext that it was built without a permit. 5 families, including more than 50 people, were expelled violently from their homes, without even having the chance to take out their staff before. For a Jerusalem palestinian family is extremely difficult to obtain a building permit from the Israeli authorities, as a result of the judaisation policy in the city. Therefore, there's no other chance than building 'ilegally'."

According to the Peace Now Movement, Israel rejects 94% of Palestinian Building permits.
