Salam al Maseeh

The first Palestinian above all others is Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Let be accursed any gospel other than that which was preached at the beginning, received not from man but from Christ Jesus, thou alone, in whom we have redemption through thy all holy infinitely pure and undefiled blood, the remission of our sins, who in the future shall recreate the heavens and the earth, called by thine special choice, who before hoped in Christ with all who heard the word of truth and believed, sealed with the Holy Spirit of the promise, who is the pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of the possession, for the praise of his glory, in faith in the Lord Jesus, and of love for all the saints in unceasing intercession of all the elect angels and saints of God, virgins, with all thanksgiving, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may grant us the spirit of wisdom and revelation in deep knowledge of him; the eyes of our minds being enlightened, to know the hope of his calling, the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to the working of his mighty power wrought in Christ the only first born from the dead in the flesh raised above all things he made subject under his feet, we who hold him the head directly and no other, Christ Jesus our only Lord and Saviour immortal son of the immortal Father in the unity and power and bond of love of the immortal Holy Spirit our Paraclete unto the ages of the ages. Amen.

The Final Trial: Jesus Christ begotten of the Father - not made

A prayer of Isaias the Prophet.

Is. 26: 9-21

(Isaias' prophecy, which is also his prayer.)

O Lord our God, grant us peace. Out of the night my spirit waketh at dawn unto Thee, O God; for Thy commandments are a light upon the earth. Learn righteousness, all ye that dwell upon the earth. For the ungodly man hath come to an end; every one that learneth not righteousness upon the earth shall not be able to do truth; let the ungodly be taken away, that he may not see the glory of the Lord. O Lord, Thine arm is lifted up, and they knew it not; but when they know it, let them be put to shame. Zeal shall lay hold upon an untaught people, and now fire shall devour the adversaries. O Lord our God, bestow Thy peace upon us, for Thou hast given all things unto us. O Lord our God, take us for Thy possession. O Lord, we know no other beside Thee; we call upon Thy name. But the dead shall not see life, neither shall physicians raise them up; therefore hast Thou brought wrath upon them, and hast slain them, and hast taken every man of them away. Bring more evils upon them, Lord; bring more evils upon them that are glorious upon the earth. O Lord, in trouble we remembered Thee; with small affliction was Thy chastening with us. And as a woman in travail draweth nigh to be delivered, and crieth out in her travail, so have we become in the presence of Thy beloved. We have conceived, O Lord, because of Thy fear, and have suffered pangs, and have brought forth the spirit of Thy salvation, which we have wrought upon the earth. We shall not fail, but all those that dwell upon the earth shall fail. The dead shall arise, and they that are in the tomb shall awake, and they that are upon the earth shall rejoice. For the dew which Thou sendest is healing unto them; but the land of the ungodly shall perish. Go, my people, enter into thine inner chamber, shut thy door, hide thyself for a little season [during the Great Tribulation, hidden in mountains and dens and caves of the earth - there is NO secret rapture which is only an heretical apostate Lurianic Talmudic Judaic doctrine], until the anger of the Lord shall pass away.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

And see: The Abomination of Desolation

Note in the below that this is a description of the evil that precedes the Antichrist who is the Abomination of Desolation. Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ then comes after the reign of Antichrist has proceeded for a while. Antichrist, his reign and the False Prophet and all their followers are then destroyed by the Second Coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ from heaven with all His elect Angels and sent to hell forever. The saints will then reign with Our Lord Jesus Christ at their head on earth forever.

Palestine, which is properly the Holy Land for in it walked God in the flesh, Jesus Christ, and there He allowed Himself to be sacrificed for the salvation of those who profess Him from the heart and with the mouth, is a miniature of all the evil that has come upon the earth and there will the final evil be concentrated in its fullness and rule from there for a short time.

From: The Abomination of Desolation

Writing in the second century, St. Hippolytus wrote the following about the evil that will abound before the coming of Antichrist:

The temples of God will be like houses, and there will be overturnings of the churches everywhere. The Scriptures will be despised, and everywhere they will sing the songs of the adversary. Fornications, and adulteries, and perjuries will fill the land; sorceries, and incantations, and divinations will follow after these with all force and zeal. And, on the whole, from among those who profess to be Christians will rise up then false prophets, false apostles, impostors, mischief-makers, evil-doers, liars against each other, adulterers, fornicators, robbers, grasping, perjured, mendacious, hating each other. The shepherds will be like wolves; the priests will embrace falsehood; the monks will lust after the things of the world; the rich will assume hardness of heart; the rulers will not help the poor; the powerful will cast off all pity; the judges will remove justice from the just, and, blinded with bribes, they will call in unrighteousness.

CHAPTER XXVIII.

The resurrection of Christ. His commission to his disciples.

1 And *in the end of the sabbath, when it began to dawn towards the first day of the week,

18 And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth.

19 *Going, therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit;

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

"Consummation of the world," - the end of this age of grace and the beginning of the eternal ages with Christ reigning visibly. This is the end of the eschaton and the beginning of the eternal recreated heavens and the earth and will begin when Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ returns from heaven in the same flesh He rose with and ascended into the third heaven with, seated at the right hand of the Father. His return will be with all of His elect angels. He will raise and judge all men in the flesh and then recreate the heavens and the earth, which in that state will last that way for eternity. There will NOT be any sin in the new heavens and earth, so prepare now by confessing the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and be baptized as commanded above and shown how to baptize below and live Holy and Godly lives in sincerity and humility and meekness waiting for the Lord when He returns so that we are not like the five foolish virgins but are like the five wise virgins.

Method of Baptism

From the Didache (49 A.D. Council of Jerusalem):

Chapter 7. Concerning Baptism.

And concerning baptism, baptize this way: Having first said all these things, baptize the one to be baptized into Jesus Christ in "the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit," in running water. But if you have no running water, baptize into other water [still water]; and if you cannot do so in cold water, do so in warm. But if you have neither, pour out water three times upon the head onto the one to be baptized saying at that time "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." But before the baptism, if possible, let the baptizer fast, and the baptized, and whoever else can; but you shall order the baptized [when there is time] to fast one or two days before.

Baptism can and should always be performed immediately when there is danger of death of the one to be baptized. For instance, impending martyrdom or possible death causing illness.

Israel is the Nation of the Antichrist = Dajjal: Totally reject Dajjal and instead Come to Christ and receive the water of life

The Muhammad of the Almighty Triune God of The Final Trial would not stand in the way of Muslims coming to Our Lord Jesus Christ and being baptized in Him as the Injeel commands. The Mohammed of Ahmadiyya is the same as the Mohammot of al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah and both are antichrists and contradict the clear commands of God in the Injeel and Taurat and Quran.

Noble Quran

003.045 Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! God giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (held in honor by the company of the prophets and saints) those nearest to God;

003.046 "He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. And he shall be (adhered to by the company) of the righteous."

003.047 She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?" He said: "Even so: God createth what He willeth: When He hath decreed a plan, He but saith to it, 'Be,' and it is!

003.048 "And God will teach him [Jesus Christ] the Book [alkitaba = all sacred writing from God Most High] and Wisdom [hikma = sophia = uncreated wisdom of God one with His Holy Spirit], the Law [Taurat fulfilled in the Gospel of Jesus Christ] and the Gospel [of Jesus Christ],"

As the Word of God Jesus Christ willed to learn in His Incarnation what He already possessed and knew prior to His Incarnation as part of His kenosis (emptying out of Himself and taking upon Himself our nature while in no way losing anything of what He already was as God by nature and Son of God as the Second Person of the undivided Trinity) and as an example to us of how we in humility must follow God the Father and the Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

See this for why Jesus Christ must be confessed as the Holy Word and Son of God: The Final Trial: Mary - revered by both Christians and Muslims as the vessel through whom God made the Word, Jesus Christ, Incarnate

The Muslim feast of Eid only commemorates the typological sacrifice by Abraham of Issac. That prefigured the final and only Supreme Sacrifice of Jesus Christ on His Most Holy Cross. It is only by the Sacrifice of Christ on His Cross that we are saved. Jesus Christ commanded, not suggested, that we be baptized; echoing the rest of the Church Fathers, St. Augustine noted that if someone could not be baptized even though they wanted it and did everything they could to be baptized in the water in name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, then their confession of faith is enough for their salvation. But no where are we allowed to refuse baptism.

All Muslims and everyone who will, are invited and encouraged to come to the water of life now and be baptized in the water and in the Spirit in name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and receive Communion.

For Noah and Abraham as Prophecies of Baptism in Our Only Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ see:

Traditional Catholic Prayers: THE TWELVE PROPHECIES - The Second Prophesy: Genesis 5: 32; 6; 7: 6: 11-14, 18-21, 23-24; 8: 1-3, 6-12, 15-21

Traditional Catholic Prayers: THE TWELVE PROPHECIES - The Third Prophesy: Genesis 22: 1-19

There is no evolution, to be baptized in Our Only Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ one must believe in the truth of literal Creation by God and no pantheistic syncretism with deistic design and the rest of pagan evolutionary theory.

Traditional Catholic Prayers: THE TWELVE PROPHECIES - The First Prophesy: Genesis 1: 1-31; 2: 1-2

And see the rest of the Baptismal Prophecies. They are a must.

For all Jews wishing to convert sincerely from the heart to Jesus Christ now, here is a prayer based on the biblical Hebrew of the prophets of the Old Testament and the Septuagint Greek of the Old Testament and the New Testament and Arabic.

(The Arabic, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, means the same as God Almighty, or 'O Theos 'O Pantocrator, in Septuagint Greek.)

In the below “Dam (Blood) Kadosh (Holy) bet Yeshua ha Maschiach (Jesus Christ) kanawn anawim (have mercy on Your faithful [those who turn to God by the shed Blood of Christ on Calvary])” is asking for God's forgiveness by the shed Holy Blood of Christ – which is the only forgiveness there is from God for sin.

Go here: Jews called in Christ: Begun in 2002, judged illegal 2004, Israel’s apartheid wall goes on regardless | Jews for Justice for Palestinians

And then be baptized in Christ - see above: Baptism.

US Companies Celebrate Women’s Day in Palestine

rmallahAt the time when huge demonstrations of women took place in many western countries during the International Woman’s day, demanding more rights and equal treatment to men, women in the occupied Palestinian Ramallah, the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority and the place of residency of “president” Mahmoud Abbas, the celebration of the IWD took a form more appropriate for promoting the many U.S and British (jewish-owned) companies which have inserted themselves into Palestine under the PA in coordination with the fat cats in Ramallah, than a day to remember women’s political interests.
Companies like Palco and Kimberly Clark that produce baby diapers and women hygiene articles or supplies for hotels and restaurants such as Hgiz, Kleenex, Mulet, Kotex, Lily, Nicole, Shikma, the British company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) that produces pharmaceuticals, vaccines and consumer healthcare products headquartered in Brentford, London; U.S Reynolds Tobacco Ltd. …
20140308_155740
These companies which are founded and owned by jews, used the occasion of International Women’s day to promote their products, often of questionable quality and utility, to manipulate the Palestinian women in the occupied territories. These companies, in cooperation with the Palestinian Authority, exploited this political occasion and turned it into a cheap fashion show, displaying girls with ridiculous hairstyles and makeup to market their products at the Grand Hotel in Ramallah.
Earlier, Palestinian women had marched for the International Women’s Day through Ramallah in protest demos against the Israeli occupation and the Palestinian Authority that denied them their basic rights as human beings, instead helping to worsen their problems, such as in the case of the so-called “honor” killings, to which six lost women their life in Ramallah, Hebron and Gaza since the beginning of 2014. The PA has stalled the necessary legal reforms to criminalize honor killings since years, apparently at the behest of their jewish colonial masters.

hugSo yesterday March 8 2014, rather than the Palestinian women raising their voices to scream for their rights at the entrance of the Palestinian presidency headquarters in Ramallah, demanding changes in the disgusting and anachronistic family laws which discriminate heavily between men and women in Palestine, some women gathered at the Grand Hotel to watch a silly fashion show with high heels, backless dresses, strange make up, hair styles and hear the propaganda of these US zionists companies who will enslave them in due time.
  
In 2014 three Palestinian women were killed in Ramallah and Hebron, and another three were killed in the Gaza Strip. On 4 March 2014, a lawyer killed his wife in Ramallah after some month of marriage. He kicked her to death after a minor argument. Another body of a Palestinian woman was found near Ramallah on February 2 2014, a third woman was killed in Hebron, and of the three women who were killed in the Gaza Strip in 2014 no further details are known.
Palestinian women suffer the problems of society doubly, once because of the persecution of the zionist occupation and another time because of the unjust Palestinian laws operating under the Palestinian Authority, and lastly the traditional society controlled by men and social traditions and customs which are heavily against women.
Untitled-1 copyThe reason for the high numbers of “honor killings” has to do with the policies of the Palestinian Authority and the exploitation of the women who work in its institutions, women who are abused sexually by superiors and co-workers, putting their lives in big danger due to the tradition of “honor killings” in traditional Palestinian society.
In the West Bank and Gaza there are no laws that forbid women from being murdered or prosecute their murderers. The Palestinian Authority applies the Jordanian Penal Code in the West Bank towns. The Jordanian law is considered as a discriminatory law, it reduces the penalty for the murderer when he perpetrates his crime under the pretext of “issues of honor”.
 “Honor” has become a justification for murdering women and protecting the murderers, as well keeping the power in the hands of the men who lead the society and impeding women from reaching power. This is a clear threat for all women who seek equality with men in their rights.

رام الله تحتفل بحفاضات الأطفال وعرض أزياء رخيص في اليوم العالمي للمرأة؟؟
خلافا لما جرى في مختلف دول العالم المتحضر من مسيرات صاخبة جابت الشوارع في يوم المرأة العالمي, مطالبة بمزيد من الحقوق والمساورا للمراة, أحيت يوم أمس مجموعة من الشركات الأمريكية والبريطانية المملوكة من أثرياء يهود, وتفتح فروعا لها تحتكر الأسواق المحلية في الأراضي الفلسطينية لصالح شركاء يعملون في السلطة, يوم المرأة العالمي بتقديم عروض رخيصة تقزم المناسبة وتحرفها هن مسارها الصحيح
حيث أجرت شركة “بالكو” للاستيراد والتوزيع، بالتعاون مع شركة “كمبرلي كلارك” الأميركية، وشلركة “جلاكسو سميث كلاين” اليوم السبت، “يوم المرأة العالمي”، بإقامة حفل فني راقص وعرض أزياء وتسريحات شعر ومكباج لا تتوافق والثقافة الفلسطينية, وذلك في فندق “جراند بارك” برام الل الواقع على مقربة من مقر الرئيس الفلسطيني محمود عباس
وحضر الحفل كبار رجال السلطة الفلسطينية من عشاق عارضات الأزياء الشابات, وجمع غفير من النساء الثريات من المعجبات بالماركات العالمية والأزياء الغربية إلى جانب مدير عام “بالكو” كمال محاميد، والمتحدث باسم الشركة الأميركية
 وقدمت عرض الأزياء شابات في مقتبل العمر تم طلاؤهن بألوان قوس قزح السبعة بعد أن ارتدين ملابس شركة “مانجو” الشهيرة في أوروبا بأسعارها الرخيصة وبضاعتها الأرخص مقارنة بغيرها
وقد تم إستغلال مناسبة يوم المرأة العالمي للتسويق لحفاضات كوتس للاطفال والنساء, وغيرها من بضائع الأستهلاك اليومي التي غزت السوق المحلي لتحل مكان البضائع الفلسطينية, وتكبد المواطن وصناعته المحلية خسائرا فادحة
 وهذه المرة الأولي التي تشارك فيها نساء فلسطينيات مغفلات في تقزيم مناسبة يوم الآرض لصالح مؤسسات أجنبية يعود ريعها على أمريكا وبريطانيا اللتين تقدمان الدعم الكامل للمستوطنات الصهيونية فوق الأراضي الفلسطينية
في حين تشهد الآراضي الفلسطينية تزايد جرائم ما يسمى ب “الشرف”, في ظل قوانين بالية موروثة منذ العهد الأردني, تميز بين الرجل والمرأة وتخفف العقوبات المفروضة على جرائم ما يسمى بالشرف
إلى جانب ذلك تعاني المرأة الفلسطينية من مشاكل مضاعفة نتيجة لظروف الأحتلال, والتمييز في العمل والأقتصاد والسياسة والتعليم وجميع مناحي الحياة, إلى جانب العادات والتقاليد البالية التي ما زالت تحكم المجتمع الذكوري المتسلط, الذي يسيطر فيه الرجل على جميع مناحي الحياة في الوطن المحتل

Jewish Terrorist Group Fraudulently Bought Land From Dead Palestinian

Haaretz, Israeli newspaper reported today Sunday Feb. 16 2013 that the real estate purchasing arm of Amana, the organization behind illegal West Bank outpost construction headed by a jewish terrorist  Zeev (Zambish) Hever from the terrorist group Gush Emunim, bought parts of a disputed area in the Beit El
Zeev Zambish Hever, head of Amana
Zeev (Zambish) Hever, head of Amana
settlement in 2013 from a Palestinian man who has been dead for years.
The current housing and construction minister, Uri Ariel, was Amana’s general secretary in the 1980s.
The allegation is detailed in documents sent to the police in a request to investigate the purchasing arm, Al-Watan.
In the summer of 2012, five buildings in Beit El’s Ulpana neighborhood were demolished following a petition to the High Court of Justice by Palestinians who owned the two lots at the site.
Last week Army Radio reported that Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon had given Al-Watan a permit to register parts of one of the lots under its name.
Al-Watan’s main owner is an Amana subsidiary, Binyanei Bar Amana. Al-Watan seeks to buy land in settlements where High Court petitions by Palestinians are pending; this would obviate the need to evacuate those lands.
Al-Watan’s directors are Ze’ev “ Zambish” Hever, a longtime leader of the settlement enterprise, Amana’s treasurer Moshe Yogev, and an Amana employee, Hananya Nahliel. Hever declined to comment for this article.
Al-Watan has claimed that it bought a Palestinian house on the outskirts of the settlement of Ofra, but the district court ruled that the deal was forged. Al-Watan also says it bought land at Giv’at Asaf, Amona and Migron. All of these transactions are being investigated by the police.
Regarding the Ulpana neighborhood, documents submitted by attorneys Michael Sfard and Shlomi Zacharia, who are representing the petitioners for human rights group Yesh Din, raise questions on the legitimacy of the Al-Watan purchases.
In January last year, a front man allegedly bought the land on which Ulpana sits from its Palestinians owners. A few months later the man allegedly passed the land on to Al-Watan. But according to the documents submitted by Sfard and Zacharia, the man stipulated had died years before.
In June, the man allegedly bought land in another part of Ulpana, from a different Palestinian. But according to the documents, this Palestinian lives in Jordan and says no one ever approached him about the land. Sfard and Zacharia want the police to launch a criminal probe on suspicion the purchases were forged.
This is not the first time Amana and its subsidiaries have claimed ownership of land in the Ulpana neighborhood. Amana has said that in 2000 it bought land at the site, but after the police determined that the purchase was fraudulent, the land was not transferred to Amana’s name.
In 2011, Amana claimed in district court that it owned a lot in Ulpana, in an effort to obstruct the evacuation of the neighborhood. The court rejected the claim.
Amana was founded in 1978 as the settlement movement of Gush Emunim. It is registered as a cooperative society, located on Paran Street in Jerusalem’s Ramat Eshkol neighborhood. The current housing and construction minister, Uri Ariel, was Amana’s general secretary in the 1980s.
The organization’s activity is conducted largely through a subsidiary, Binyanei Bar Amana. According to the division between the two, Amana plans and initiates the construction projects, wields political connections and obtains authorizations or devises means to sidestep the law; Binyanei Bar Amana does the actual construction. Almost all of that construction takes place in the West Bank. With the exception of isolated villages – such as Bar Yohai and Or Haganuz in Galilee, and communities for former residents of Gush Katif (the evacuated Gaza Strip settlement bloc) – all of Amana’s construction is being done across the Green Line. Hever became the society’s general secretary in 1989.
Hever, whose original name was Friedman, was born in Ramat Gan and joined Gush Emunim at a young age. In the 1970s, he was secretary of the regional council of Kiryat Arba, an urban settlement abutting on Hebron. As a member of the Jewish terrorist organization, he tried to place a bomb in the car of Dr. Ahmed Natshe, a political figure in Hebron. A barking dog frightened Hever and his accomplices, however, and they hid the bomb. It was discovered later on and became one of the clues that enabled the Shin Bet security service to uncover the Jewish Underground. Hever was arrested in 1984 and sentenced to 11 months in prison. Like all the refugees of the Underground, he moved towards the center in the wake of his experience. As a young man, Hever held extremely radical views about the Arabs but after his prison term, he abandoned the path of violence and embarked on a career as a functionary with close ties to the authorities.
About a year after Hever became Amana’s general secretary, Ariel Sharon was appointed housing minister (in the government of Yitzhak Shamir). The Sharon-Hever alignment paid off for the settlements, which underwent a building boom in this period (1990-1992). Sharon, given a free hand to build housing for the large influx of immigrants from the former Soviet Union, used the opportunity to beef up the settlements as well. He and Hever found a common language: both viewed themselves as men of action who had nothing but scorn for officials, bureaucrats, legal experts and the like.
Under Sharon’s stewardship, Amana engaged in a major building drive, which would make the settlements an irreversible fact of life. The warm relationship between Sharon and Hever was unbroken. Even during the 2005 disengagement from Gaza, when the settlers felt that Prime Minister Sharon had stabbed them in the back, Hever alone remained in constant touch with him. He told friends that his approach was: Whatever can be attained, can be; and what cannot, cannot.

مستوطنون حركة غوش إمونيم الأرهابية تعقد صفقة كاذبة مع فلسطيني متوفي؟؟
كشفت صحيفة “هآرتس” في عددها الصادر اليوم الاحد ان الصفقة التي عقدتها شركة “الوطن” التابعة لحركة “آمان” الاستيطانية حول شراء قطعة ارض من حي “الاولبانا” في مستوطنة “بيت ايل” عام 2013 تم عقدها مع شخص متوفى قبل عدة سنوات من تاريخ عقد الصفقة
واضافت الصحيفة ان الكشف عن هذه القضية تبين بعد ان تم التقدّم بشكوى امام الشرطة من قبل منظمة “يش دين” لفحص ممارسات شركة وطن في الضفة
يشار الى انه تم هدم 5 مباني شمال “بيت ايل” والتي كانت مقامة على قطع ارض خاصة للمواطنين برام الله، والذين التمسوا امام المحكمة العليا بطلب لهدم هذه المباني؛ الا انه في الاسبوع الماضي عُلم ان وزير الجيش اعطى الاذن للشركة لتسجيل قطعة من بين هذه القطع على اسمها
وافادت الصحيفة ان الوثائق التي تقدم بها الملتمسون اظهرت علامات استفهام حول الصفقة المذكورة، فقد اظهرت ان شخصاً وسيطاً “اشترى” عام 2013 قطعة الارض التي اقيم عليها حي “الاولبانا” من شخص فلسطيني، ونقل الوسيط بعد عدة اشهر هذه الملكية الى شركة “الوطن ” الاستيطانية، الا ان الوثائق التي تقدّم بها الملتمسون اثبتت ان الشخص “البائع” متوفى قبل عدة سنوات من تاريخ البيع، حسب الصحيفة
كما تبين ايضاً ان وسيطاً آخر اشترى قطعة ارض اخرى في حي “الاولبانا” الا ان محامي الملتمسين اثبتوا ان الشخص “البائع” مقيم في الاردن مؤكدا ان احداً لم يتوجه اليه لشراء الارض. وكان المحامون تقدموا الى الشرطة بشكوى للتحقيق في ممارسات شركة “الوطن” للاشتباه بعملية تزوير
يشار الى ان الشركة كانت ادّعت في الماضي شراء قطعة ارض في مستوطنة عوفرا من شخص فلسطيني الا ان هذه الادعاءات تم دحضها من قبل المحكمة المركزية الاسرائيلية التي قررت ان الوثائق مزّيفة

Zionist Forces Arrest Camel in Bethlehem

CamelThe israeli occupation forces in the district of Bethlehem arrested a camel yesterday under the pretext that it had entered into a “military zone”. The event took place near the Al-Rashaide village east of Bethlehem city in the occupied West Bank.
Palestinian newspapers reported that Fawaz Rshaide, head of the Palestinian village council of Al- Rashaide, told reporters that the israeli soldiers had arrested a camel belonging to Musallam Younis Rshaaidhe because the camel had supposedly entered a “military zone”.
“Military zones” are arbitrarily declared by the occupation to serve as a pretext to seize by force lands owned by Palestinians. It works like this: a “military zone” is declared over an area which the zionists want to steal, what means that the owners of these lands are not allowed to go to their land (and homes). The lands in question are then “confiscated” as a punishment if the owners enter their lands which are now a “military zone”, or they are declared “abandoned” by the occupation if the owners don’t show up for some time, and then seized and turned over to European or American squatters.
Didk05Mr. Rshaide added that the israeli soldiers stole the camel, which belonged to a Palestinian, and fled the area. The Camel was taken to the military colony “Ma’ale Adumim” near Al – Eizariya in the West Bank, near occupied Jerusalem.
He explained that the Israeli soldiers arrested the owner of the camel too in order to force him to pay a fine of 2,000 shekels to have his animal released from jail. In addition, the israeli soldiers who stole the camel, “asked” it’s owner to pay 600 shekels as “extra fees” for the transportation of the camel, which they stole and brought from the Palestinian land to the zionist colony. 



Al – Eizariya is identified in the Bible as Bethany and in the New Testament it is identified as the home of the siblings Mary and Martha.
Mr. Rshaide commented on this incident of theft by the jewish occupation saying: “This as a way to displace the citizens from there agricultural land east of Bethlehem. It is ethnic cleansing”.
Under the “regulations” which the israeli military laws applies to Palestinians in the occupied territories since 1967, there are no laws which legitimize arresting animals, confiscating the equipments of civilians for military purposes and taking fees and high fines before giving back stolen goods to their rightful owners.
However, the military occupation through it’s so-called “Civil Administration” does exactly this since decades. There troops “arrest” the animals of Palestinian farmers: sheep, herds of goats, cows, chickens and birds, they also “confiscate” their farming equipment under scurrilous pretexts and refuse returned to these animals or equipment to their owners without the payment large sums of money as ransom.
These illegal ransom monies collected by the occupiers is not entered into the budget of the civil administration. No one knows where the money goes, some people assume that the criminals squander these moneys for expanding settlements and making wealth.
The “Civil Administration” claims that money is paid to the so-called patrol for “surveillance and detection” of the civil administration, who one day loot the Palestinian property and next day their money.
The heads of these “monitoring units” at the “Civil Administration” is a well-known settler called David Kishik, son of former prostitute Shula Cohen who received his post as payment because his mother once long ago sold her favours in Lebanon. Mr. Kishik and his team are a bunch of criminal garbage that has made immense wealth on the back of destitute Palestinians in the occupied territories. 

قوات الإحتلال تعتقل جمل ودجاجة ومالكهم في بيت لحم
أعتقلت يوم أمس قوة عسكرية من جيش للإحتلال الصهيوني جملا بحجة دخوله منطقة عسكرية قرب قرية الرشايدة شرق محافظة بيت لحم
وذكرت الصحف الفلسطينية أن رئيس مجلس قروي عرب الرشايدة “فواز رشايدة” صرح للصحفيين قائلا إن جنود الاحتلال اعتقلوا جملا يعود للمواطن “مسلم يونس رشايدة” بحجة دخوله في منطقة عسكرية مغلقة – أي أراضي مملوكة من قبل الفلسطينيين إستولى عليها جيش الأحتلال بالقوة وتحت التهديد في السلاح ومنعوا أصحابها من دخولها
وأضاف الرشايدة إلى أن الجنود نقلوا الجمل إلى مستعمرة “معالي أدوميم” قرب العيزرية
وفي ظل لوائح القوانين العسكرية الإسرائيلية المطبقة على الفلسطينين في الأراضي المحتلة منذ عام 1967, لا توجد قوانين تنص على إعتقال الحيوانات, ومصادرة معدات المزارعين الفلسطينيين من أراضيهم لأغراض عسكرية, وتقلها إلى معسكرات الجيش وفرض غرامة مالية عليها
إلا أن جنود  ما يسمى بالإدارة المدنية الإسرائيلية يقومون بإعتقال الخراف والدجاج, والجمال, ومصادرة معدات زراعة الأراضي المملوكة من قبل الفلسطينيين, ويرفضون أعادتها لأصحابها دون دفع مبالغ مالية كبيرة, لا يتم إدخالها إلى ميزانية الإدارة المدنية, ولا أحد يعلم أين تذهب هذه الأموال
وتدعي الأدارة المدنية أن المخصصات المالية التي تجبى من الفلسطينيين, (وهي تجبى  بشكل غير قانوني), تدفع إلى ما يسمى بدوريات المراقبة والكشف التي تسيرها الإدارة المدنية لتقوم بأعمال نهب ممتلكات الفلسطينيين وإعتقال حيواناتهم وهدم بيوتهم
ويرأس وحدة المراقبة في الإدارة المدنية المستوطن “دافيد كشك” الذي أثرى على حساب نهب ممتلكات الفلسطينيين, واستصدار أوامر هدم منازلهم, وهو إبن الجاسوسة الصهيونية في لبنان, بائعة الهوى شولا كوهين

Egyptian Boy Arrested For Revolution Symbol On Ruler

Patrick Kingsley in Cairo – theguardian.com, Tuesday 10 December 2013
Khaled Bakara, 15, raising his hand in the Rabaa four-fingered salute.Scissors and compasses are traditionally considered the most dangerous items in a student’s pencil case. But for one Egyptian schoolboy it is a ruler that has allegedly led to his detention for 16 days in an adult jail without trial.
Khaled Bakara, 15, was arrested last month after his teacher spotted a ruler on his desk bearing a symbol indicating his opposition to the overthrow of Egypt’s former president Mohamed Morsi, alleged Khaled’s lawyer, Amr Abdel Maqsoud.
“There was no previous confrontation with the teacher, Maqsoud said. “The teacher was walking around the classroom and saw the ruler on his desk. Then he took Khaled’s bag, started searching it, and found two notebooks with the sign on them too. He took the three things and went to the school director, who called the police.”
According to Maqsoud, police arrested Khaled on suspicion of incitement to violence, slandering Egypt’s army, and belonging to a banned group. He was originally detained for 15 days in an adult facility, pending investigations, and on Sunday his detention was renewed for a similar period. Egyptian legislation sets criminal penalties for officials who detain children with adult prisoners.
Egypt’s interior ministry said it could not provide details of Khaled’s case at the time of writing. The foreign ministry – which acts as a conduit for queries left unanswered by other state institutions – would not comment on the details of the case but said Egypt’s judicial system followed “due process” and had “full independence”.
Known as the Rabaa sign, the symbol on Khaled’s ruler consists of a four-fingered salute on a yellow background. Named after the Rabaa al-Adawiya protest camp – where hundreds of Morsi supporters were killed by state forces in August – it has become a calling card for mainly Islamist opponents of Morsi’s overthrow. The government and its supporters have attempted to stamp out its usage in case its proliferation disproves the claim that most Egyptians support Morsi’s overthrow.
One of Egypt’s leading footballers was banned and put up for sale by his club for flashing the sign during the final of the African champions league. The country’s kung fu champion was suspended for a similar gesture at a medals ceremony in Moscow. Twenty-one women and girls were sentenced to lengthy jail terms after being arrested carrying balloons bearing the symbol, though their sentences were suspended at the weekend.
According to his lawyer, Khaled is one of 262 citizens – and eight minors – from Kafr el-Sheikh, a northern province, currently jailed pending trial on protest-related charges. Maqsoud said the arrest was one of many intended to intimidate Morsi supporters into submission.
“It’s a political case,” said Maqsoud. “They’re trying to pressure [Khaled's] town – Baltim – because they have almost daily marches against the coup.”
Nationally, thousands of other protesters arrested during a crackdown on dissent since July may remain in jail – many of them uncharged. In September Amnesty International said 2,400 were still in detention – a figure that may have risen following subsequent rounds of arrests, despite the release of 155 protesters last week. Legally, detainees can remain in custody pending charges for up to two years in Egypt.
On Monday, the Guardian asked Egypt’s justice minister, Adel Abdel Hamid, to comment on the detention without trial of protesters such as Khaled since July. Speaking at an anti-corruption conference co-organised by Transparency International, the minister replied that it was not an appropriate question to ask at the event, and refused to comment further.
The crackdown has extended even to high-profile non-Islamist activists who called for Morsi’s removal in June. On Monday 25 secular activists – including two famous for their role in Hosni Mubarak’s 2011 overthrow, Ahmed Maher and Alaa Abdel Fatah – were sent for trial in a criminal court for organising protests rendered illegal by new legislation.

السلطات المصرية تحتجز طالبا لدى اكتشاف المدرس ان لديه قرطاسية توحي بشعار رابعة
القاهرة، لندن – نشرت صحيفة “ذي غارديان” البريطانية مقالا في عددها الصادر اليوم عن طالب في احدى المدارس اكتشف مدرسه ان لديه قرطاسية توحي بشعار “رابعة” المؤيد للرئيس المعزول محمد مرسي. جاء ذلك في تقرير بعث به مراسلها في القاهرة باتريك كينغزلي، وفيما يليترجمة المقال
يعتبر المقص والفرجار في علبة اقلام الطالب بانها خطرة للغاية في العادة. اما بالنسبة لاحد الطلبة المصريين فان السبب في ايداعه وراء القضبان لـ16 يوما من دون محاكمة كان مجرد مسطرة
القي القبض على خالد البكرة (15 عاما) الشهر الماضي بعد ان شاهد مدرسه وجود مسطرة على مكتبه تحمل شارة توحي بمعارضة لعملية الانقلاب على الرئيس المصري السابق محمد مرسي، كما يقول محاميه عمرو عبد المقصود
وقال عبد المقصود: لم يحصل اي جدال مع المدرس. فقد كان هذا يسير في انحاء غرفة الدراسة، وشاهد مسطرة على مكتبه. امسك بشنطة خالد وبدأ التفتيش فيها، ووجد دفتري نوتة عليهما الشارة ذاتها. اخذ الاشياء الثلاثة وذهب الى ناظر المدرسة الذي استدعى الشرطة
وحسب رواية عبد المقصود المحامي القت الشرطة القبض على خالد بتهمة التحريض على العنف والتشهير بالجيش المصري، والانتماء الى جماعة محظورة. بقي في الاحتجاز لمدة 15 يوما على ذمة التحقيق، وجُدد الاحتجاز يوم الاحد لفترة اخرى مماثلة. علما بان التشريع المصري يوقع عقوبات جنائية على المسؤولين الذين يحتجزون اطفالا مع سجناء بالغين
قالت وزارة الخارجية المصرية انه ليس بامكانها ان تكشف عن تفاصيل قضية خالد. اما وزارة الخارجية، التي تعمل حلقة وصل فيما يتعلق بالاستفسارات التي تظل عائمة من دون توضيح لدى مؤسسات الدولة الاخرى، فلم تعلق على تفصيلات القضية، لكنها قالت ان نظام القضاء المصري يعمل “حسب الانظمة المرعية” وان لديه “الاستقلال التام
يعرف الشعار على مسطرة خالد بـ”رابعة” حيث تظهر كف ذات اربعة اصابع على خلفية صفراء. وقد حاولت الحكومة وانصارها القضاء على استخدامه خشية ان يؤدي انتشاره الى تفنيد الادعاء ان معظم المصريين يدعمون الاطاحة بمرسي
وكان احد النوادي الرياضية قد اوقف احد لاعبي كرة القدم المعروفين وعرض بيعه لانه رفع تلك الشارة خلال نهائيات دوري ابطال افريقيا. كما اوقف بطل “كونغ فو” المصري للسبب نفسه حين رفع الشعار في احتفالات توزيع الميداليات في موسكو. وصدرت احكام بالسجن لفترة طويلة على احدى وعشرين سيدة وفتاة لحمل بالونات عليها ذلك الشعار، رغم ان تلك القرارات الغيت في نهاية الاسبوع
وحسب قول المحامي، فان خالد هو واحد من بين 262 مواطنا، وثمانية اطفال، من كفر الشيخ، يقضون ايامهم في السجن بتهم مرتبطة بالاحتجاجات. وقال عبد المقصود ان عمليات الاحتجاز هي احدى الاساليب الكثيرة التي تهدف الى حمل انصار مرسي على الخضوع
وقال: انها قضية سياسية. وهم يحاولون الضغط على بلدة خالد وهي بلطيم لانها شهدت مسيرات يومية تقريبا ضد الانقلاب
وعلى نطاق الوطن المصري، فان هناك الالاف من المحتجين الاخرين الذين القي القبض عليهم خلال عمليات ضد المنشقين منذ تموز (يوليو) قد يبقون في السجن، كثيرون لم توجه اليهم اي تهمة. وفي ايلول (سبتمبر) قالت هيئة “امنستي انترناشونال” ان هناك 2400 لا يزالون في الاعتقال، وقد يتجاوز العدد ذلك على ضوء جولات متواصلة من الاحتجاز رغم اطلاق سراح 155 متظاهرا الاسبوع الماضي. وقانونا، فانه يمكن ابقاء المحتجزين داخل السجن قيد التحقيق لمدة تصل الى عامين في مصر
ويوم الاثنين طلبت صحيفة “ذي غارديان” من وزير العدل المصري عادل عبد الحميد ان يعلق على احتجاز المتظاهرين من دون محاكمة امثال خالد. وكان يتحدث في مؤتمر ضد الفساد قامت بتنظيمه هيئة الشفافية العالمية، اجاب الوزير بان من غير المناسب توجيه هذا السؤال في هذ الوقت، ورفض التعليق
والاجراءات المتشددة امتدت لتصل الى اشخاص نشيطين غير اسلاميين طالبوا بالاطاحة بمرسي في حزيران (يونيو). ويوم الاثنين مثل 25 نشيط علماني، من بينهم اثنان شهيران لدورهما في الاطاحة بحسني مبارك العام 2011، هما احمد ماهر وعلاء عبد الفتاح، امام محكمة الجنايات لتنظيمهم مظاهرات اعتبرت غير مشروعة في التشريع الجديد

EU Expresses Concern About PA Unlawful Arrests

Finally, the European Union expressed concern over the continuing violations of the Palestinian Authority (PNA Militia) for Human Rights!

The European Union has expressed its concern about the Palestinian Authority unlawful arrests and ill treatment, freedom of assembly, freedom of press and equal opportunities for women during the EU-Palestine policy dialogue on human rights, good governance and rule of law which was held on Nov. 27 2013.
The EU commended the Palestinian side for its work on a National Action Plan for human rights and efforts to combat torture and improve access in some detention centres. 

The EU addressed its concern about – inter alia – unlawful arrests and ill treatment, freedom of assembly, freedom of press and equal opportunities for women. Palestinian progress in strengthening the rule of law through reform in the justice and security sector was equally discussed.
The PA continues arresting journalists, bloggers, academics, political activists, politicians from the ranks of the opposition as well as political prisoners released from the israeli jails and throwing them into its own jail without trial, as a part of a what is called “security coordination with Israel”, in which both the israeli criminals and the PA dictatorial regime try to protect their power by controlling the freedom of expression.
The PNA systematically tortures the detainees at its prisons and does not allow the Red Cross and other human rights organizations to visit the detainees during their detention. The “human rights organizations” working under PNA control in the occupied territories claim that their duties are ONLY to document the Israeli violations of human rights. This is not true. What happens is that they are not allowed to document the PNA atrocities and are afraid to report about the PNA violations of human rights. The price they would incur for exposing the PNA would be to have their organizations closed and their funding, which they receive from zionist-friendly organizations in western countries, disappear.

The continued violation of prisoners rights at PA jails are documented in preparation for legal action at international courts at the right time.
The EU has financed the construction of a number of jails in the Occupied Palestinian territories, and the EU has a police unit stationed in Ramallah, the so-called “EUPOL COPPS”, headed by one Mr. Kenneth DEANE. The COPPS unit is responsible for training Palestinian “security personnel”, mainly the militarized police, on how to arrest and deal with detainees before and while in prisons.

Egypt: Morsy’s Ex-Aides Forcibly Disappeared

HRW150 Days Later, Whereabouts Unknown – New York –Human Rights Watch- The Egyptian military has detained five members of former president Mohamed Morsy’s administration at an undisclosed location without judicial process and with very little outside contact since July 3, 2013. Almost five months later, the government has yet to formally acknowledge their detention or disclose their fate or whereabouts, conditions that constitute enforced disappearance.
The government has been carrying out a systematic crackdown against the Muslim Brotherhood. The police have rounded up thousands of the organization’s leaders, members, and perceived sympathizers. Human Rights Watch has documented significant evidence of arbitrary arrests, selective targeting of activities and individuals based solely on their political objectives, and serious due process violations.
“What kind of road-map is this where a military-backed government can brazenly disappear former presidential aides for 150 days without any explanation?” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East and North Africa director. “Forcibly disappearing people for months on end doesn’t inspire confidence that this government intends to follow the rule of law.”
On the day it removed Morsy from power, July 3, 2013, the Egyptian military forcibly detained him and nine high-ranking members of his administration:
  • Ahmed Abdelaty, office director
  • Essam al-Haddad, foreign relations assistant
  • Ayman Ali, expatriate affairs assistant
  • Abdelmeguid al-Meshaly, media adviser
  • Khaled al-Qazzaz, foreign relations secretary
  • Ayman al-Serafy, secretary to the office director
  • Mohammad Rifaa al-Tahtawy, chief of staff
  • Assad El-Sheikha, deputy chief of staff
  • Ayman Hudhod, security adviser
Family members of six detained aides who spoke to Human Rights Watch said that they lost contact with their loved ones around the time Defense Minister Abdul Fatah Sisi announced the government’s ouster on July 3. The military initially held the presidential aides incommunicado, with the exception of al-Qazzaz, who placed several short calls to his family during the first 10 days after their disappearance, assuring his family that the aides were safe and would be home soon.
In the days after July 3, the government refused to acknowledge that it was holding the former aides or to confirm their whereabouts, putting them outside the protection of the law. On July 10, Badr Abdellatty, Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesman, told Agence France Presse that, although Morsy had not been “charged with anything up until now,” he “is in a safe place, for his safety, and he is being treated with dignity.”
Ahmed El-Muslimani, spokesman for the interim president, Adly Mansour, announced on July 16 that Morsy is “in a safe place and is treated in a matter appropriate for a former president.” Neither statement, though, provided details of where Morsy was detained, nor made mention of the nine other members of his administration. It is widely presumed that the military initially held the group in the Republican Guard Headquarters.
The military failed to bring any member of the group in front of a prosecutor within 24 hours, as Egyptian law requires, the relatives of the six detained aides interviewed by Human Rights Watch said. Based on conversations with their husbands, the wives of two detained aides said that the military separated Morsy, al-Tahtawy, and El-Sheikha from the remainder of the group several days after their initial disappearance.
Prosecutors on July 26 formally ordered Morsy imprisoned pending investigation on a range of charges and on August 4 brought charges against al-Tahtawy and El-Sheikha, ordering their pretrial detention for 15 days pending investigation. Their location, though, remained secret. Security officials eventually transferred El-Sheikha to Tora Prison, where he is currently held. No official statement has been made about where al-Tahtawy, who previously served as Egypt’s ambassador to Libya and Iran, is being held, although a relative told Human Rights Watch that authorities held him with Morsy at an unknown location until Morsy’s preliminary court appearance on November 4, at which point they transferred both to Borg al-Arab Prison.
Prosecutors on August 6 ordered Abdelaty and Hudhod to be detained pending investigation. On that date, security officials moved both from the secret location where they had been held for over 30 days to Tora Prison, Abdelaty’s wife, Mona al-Masri, told Human Rights Watch. El-Sheikha, Hudhod, and Abdelaty appeared in court on November 4 as co-defendants along with Morsy on charges related to the clashes outside the Ettihadiya presidential palace in December 2012.
The five other aides – al-Haddad, Ali, al-Meshaly, al-Qazzaz, and al-Serafy – remain detained without any legal basis at an undisclosed location. On July 19, al-Qazzaz called his wife, Sarah Attia, and requested that each family deliver white clothes, the uniform for prisoners in Egypt, to a particular secure facility, where an army general would receive the clothes and deliver them to the detained aides, six relatives told Human Rights Watch. The families have since periodically delivered clothing and other items and picked up laundry in this manner.
The families of the other four aides each had a phone call about a minute long on speakerphone from their loved ones about a month after their disappearance. The aides have had limited family contact since, though they remain unable to speak with a lawyer or have any other outside contact.
Attia, al-Qazzaz’s wife, told Human Rights Watch that she learned, based on her limited communication with her husband, that the military has held the aides together in a single room,  allowing them outside for only one hour a day and denying them access to phones or the Internet. Relatives expressed particular concern about Ali and al-Haddad, who they said have chronic health conditions that require regular access to medication and doctors.
Several relatives of the disappeared detainees told Human Rights Watch that they feared the government was detaining their relatives to use as leverage for future negotiations with the Muslim Brotherhood. A relative of al-Tahtawy said he fears the authorities will continue to hold al-Tahtawy until a new president is elected. Mona al-Qazzaz, al-Qazzaz’s sister, said she believed her brother was being “kept in the fridge” for use by the government as a negotiating lever with the Muslim Brotherhood. Al-Haddad’s son Abdullah said he has similar anxieties about his father, given that he had a close relationship with Morsy.
All of the relatives interviewed said they felt intimidated when it came to speaking out about their family members. The al-Haddads and al-Qazzazes, in particular, said that a number of their family members have been detained. Security forces in September arrested al-Haddad’s son Gehad, who became the spokesman for the Muslim Brotherhood after June 30. Al-Qazzaz’s father, Adly, was arrested in October. Three families told Human Rights Watch that security forces have raided their homes.
Government officials have also made statements and opened investigations into the aides’ personal affairs, making them lightning rods for relentless criticism in Egyptian media without any opportunity to respond. The Egyptian newspaper Youm 7, for example, reported on November 25 that a government committee, headed by the justice minister’s first assistant, had placed al-Haddad’s name on a list of Muslim Brotherhood members prevented from accessing their personal assets.
A November 24 article in al-Akbar, a pro-government newspaper, said that Education Minister Mahmoud Abu Nasr called for the Moqattam Language School and Moqattam International School, which Adly al-Qazzaz runs, to be added to the list of Muslim Brotherhood schools to be brought under government control following court rulings calling for confiscation of the organization’s assets.
Mona al-Qazzaz said that she had learned from her detained brother that authorities in mid-November had printed her picture and a tweet of hers that had criticized the interim government and handed it to him, in an attempt to silence her. She and Abdullah al-Haddad, both based in London, worry that, as a result of their political activism, they may never be able to return to Egypt to see their families.
The family members expressed deep frustration with not knowing why the authorities were holding their loved ones and how much longer they would remain in custody. A relative of Ayman al-Serafy said, “I want to know where he is. I want to see him and know that he is okay.” With four young children and no family in Cairo, Attia, al-Qazzaz’s wife, said, “I have basically been a single mother for the last four months.” “They have taken everything from us,” Mona al-Qazzaz said.
Under international law, a state’s refusal to acknowledge that a person has been detained or to reveal a person’s whereabouts and fate following detention or arrest by state forces, placing the detainee outside the protection of the law, is an enforced disappearance. Enforced disappearance violates many of the rights guaranteed under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which Egypt ratified in 1982, including the requirement to bring detainees promptly   before a judge. The UN General Assembly has repeatedly described enforced disappearance as “an offense to human dignity” and “a grave and flagrant violation” of international human rights law.
An enforced disappearance also constitutes a “continuous” crime under international law: it persists, and continues to inflict suffering on the victim’s family, as long as the fate of the missing person is unknown or concealed. The UN Declaration on the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearances, proclaimed by the General Assembly in 1992, recognizes the practice of “disappearances” as a violation of the rights to due process, liberty, and security of a person. To prevent disappearances, the declaration stipulates that detainees must be held in officially recognized places of detention, of which their families must be promptly informed; that they must have access to a lawyer; and that each detention facility must maintain an official up-to-date register of everyone in that facility deprived of their liberty.
Although nonbinding, the declaration reflects the international norm against enforced disappearance, which has been further reinforced by the adoption of the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance in 2006.
Article I of the convention, which Egypt has not signed or ratified, holds that “[n]o exceptional circumstances whatsoever, whether a state of war or a threat of war, internal political instability, or any other public emergency, may be invoked as justification for enforced disappearance.” The convention further calls for states to investigate disappearances, hold perpetrators responsible, and properly compensate victims.
“The prolonged enforced disappearance of anyone is a crime, pure and simple,” Whitson said. “The Egyptian authorities should immediately free them unconditionally.”

اتهمت منظمة هيومن رايتس ووتش ومقرها نيويورك في بيان لها صدر أمس الأحد, الجيش المصري بالوقوف وراء الاختفاء القسري لخمسة من المسؤولين السابقين الذين كانوا مقربين من الرئيس محمد مرسي
وقالت المنظمة إن الجيش المصري يحتجز خمسة أفراد من إدارة الرئيس السابق محمد مرسي في مكان غير معلوم بدون إجراءات قضائية وبأقل القليل من الاتصال بالعالم الخارجي، وذلك منذ 3 تموزيوليو 2013, وفيما يلي نص تقرير المنظمة الدولية
مصر ـ إخفاء قسري لمساعدي مرسي السابقين
ما زال مكانهم مجهولاً بعد انقضاء 150 يوماً
نيويورك ـ  الجيش المصري يحتجز خمسة أفراد من إدارة الرئيس السابق محمد مرسي في مكان غير معلوم بدون إجراءات قضائية وبأقل القليل من الاتصال بالعالم الخارجي، وذلك منذ 3 يوليو/تموز 2013. وبعد مرور ما يقرب من خمسة أشهر، لم تعترف الحكومة حتى الآن رسمياُ باحتجازهم ولا كشفت عن مصيرهم أو مكانهم، وهو ما يعتبر إخفاءً قسرياً
تجري الحكومة حملة قمعية ممنهجة بحق الإخوان المسلمين، وقد قبضت الشرطة على الآلاف من قادة التنظيم، وأفراده، ومن تتصور أنهم يتعاطفون معه. وثقت هيومن رايتس ووتش أدلة كثيرة على اعتقالات تعسفية، واستهداف انتقائي للأنشطة والأفراد لا يستند إلى شيء سوى أهدافهم السياسية، وانتهاكات جسيمة لسلامة الإجراءات القضائية.
وقالت سارة ليا ويتسن، المديرة التنفيذية لقسم الشرق الأوسط وشمال أفريقيا: “أي نوع من خرائط الطريق هذا الذي يتسنى فيه لحكومة مدعومة عسكرياً أن تخفي مساعدين رئاسيين سابقين بكل وضوح لمدة 150 يوماً دون أي تفسير؟ إن الإخفاء القسري لأشخاص لمدة شهور متصلة لا يوحي بالثقة في نية هذه الحكومة التقدم على مسار إعلاء سيادة القانون
قام الجيش المصري يوم 3 يوليو/تموز، حين عزل مرسي عن السلطة، باحتجازه هو وتسعة من كبار أفراد إدارته

أحمد عبد العاطي، مدير المكتب
عصام الحداد، مساعد الرئيس للشؤون الخارجية
أيمن علي، مساعد الرئيس لشؤون المصريين في الخارج
عبد المجيد المشالي، مستشار إعلامي
خالد القزاز، سكرتير الرئيس لشؤون العلاقات الخارجية
أيمن الصيرفي، سكرتير مدير المكتب
محمد رفاعة الطهطاوي، رئيس الديوان
أسعد الشيخة، نائب رئيس الديوان
أيمن هدهد، مستشار أمني
قال أقارب ستة من المساعدين المحتجزين، تحدثوا مع هيومن رايتس ووتش، إنهم فقدوا الاتصال بذويهم في توقيت إعلان الفريق أول عبد الفتاح السيسي عن عزل الحكومة في 3 يوليو/تموز. في البداية قام الجيش باحتجاز مساعدي الرئيس بمعزل عن العالم الخارجي، باستثناء القزاز الذي أجرى عدة مكالمات قصيرة مع عائلته في الأيام العشرة الأولى بعد اختفائهم، وطمأن عائلته إلى سلامة المساعدين وقرب عودتهم إلى بيوتهم
في الأيام التالية للثالث من يوليو/تموز، رفضت الحكومة الاعتراف بأنها تحتجز المساعدين السابقين أو تأكيد مكانهم، مما وضعهم خارج الحماية التي يكفلها القانون. وفي 10 يوليو/تموز قال بدر عبد اللاتي، المتحدث باسم الخارجية المصرية، لوكالة الأنباء الفرنسية إن مرسي رغم “عدم اتهامه بشيء حتى الآن، إلا أنه في مكان آمن، من أجل سلامته، وهو يلقى معاملة كريمة
أعلن أحمد المسلماني، المتحدث باسم الرئيس المؤقت عدلي منصور، في 16 يوليو/تموز إن مرسي “في مكان آمن ويلقى المعاملة اللائقة برئيس سابق”. غير أن أياً من التصريحين لم يقدم تفاصيلاً عن مكان احتجاز مرسي ولا أتى على ذكر التسعة الآخرين من أفراد إدارته. وثمة تصور واسع النطاق بأن الجيش احتجز المجموعة في البداية في مقر الحرس الجمهوري
أخفق الجيش في تقديم أي فرد في المجموعة إلى النيابة خلال 24 ساعة، كما يشترط القانون المصري، وهذا على حد قول أقارب المساعدين الستة المحتجزين الذين أجرت معهم هيومن رايتس ووتش مقابلات. قالت زوجتا اثنين من المساعدين المحتجزين، استناداً إلى حوارات مع زوجيهما، إن الجيش قام بفصل مرسي والطهطاوي والشيخة عن بقية المجموعة بعد عدة أيام من بداية إخفائهم
في 26 يوليو/تموز أمرت النيابة رسمياً بحبس مرسي على ذمة التحقيق في جملة من الاتهامات، وفي 4 أغسطس/آب قامت بتوجيه الاتهام إلى الطهطاوي، والشيخة، وأمرت بحبسهما لمدة 15 يوم على ذمة التحقيق. ومع ذلك فقد ظل مكانهما سرياً. وفي النهاية نقل مسؤولون أمنيون الشيخة إلى سجن طرة، حيث يجري احتجازه حالياً. لم يصدر أي تصريح رسمي يتعلق بمكان احتجاز الطهطاوي، الذي سبق له أن خدم في منصب سفير مصر في كل من ليبيا وإيران، إلا أن أحد أقاربه قال لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش إن السلطات احتجزته مع مرسي في مكان غير معلوم لحين مثول مرسي أمام المحكمة في 4  نوفمبر/تشرين الثاني، حين نقلت الاثنين إلى سجن برج العرب
وفي 6 أغسطس/آب أمرت النيابة بحبس عبدلاتي وهدهد على ذمة التحقيق، فقام مسؤولون أمنيون في ذلك اليوم بنقل الاثنين من المكان السري، حيث كانا محتجزين لمدة تجاوزت الثلاثين يوماً، إلى سجن طرة، بحسب تصريح منى المصري، زوجة عبدلاتي، لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش. ظهر الشيخة وهدهد وعبدلاتي في المحكمة يوم 4 نوفمبر/تشرين الثاني كشركاء لمرسي في تهم تتعلق بالاشتباكات أمام قصر الاتحادية في ديسمبر/كانون الأول 2012
ويبقى المساعدون الخمسة الآخرون ـ الحداد وعلي والمشالي والقزاز والصيرفي ـ محتجزين دون أي سند قانوني في مكان غير معلوم. في 19 يوليو/تموز اتصل القزاز بزوجته، سارة عطية، وطلب قيام كل أسرة بتوصيل ملابس بيضاء، أو زي الحبس الاحتياطي في مصر، إلى مقر آمن بعينه، حيث يتسلمها لواء من الجيش ويسلمها إلى المساعدين المحتجزين، وهذا بحسب تصريحات ستة من أقارب المحتجزين لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش. ومنذ ذلك الحين تقوم الأسر بتوصيل ملابس وأغراض أخرى وتسلم الملابس المتسخة على هذا النحو
حظيت كل أسرة من أسر المساعدين الأربعة الآخرين بمكالمة هاتفية مدتها نحو دقيقة على مكبر الصوت مع قريبها المحتجز بعد حوالي شهر من اختفائه. ومنذ ذلك الحين حصل المساعدون على اتصالات محدودة بعائلاتهم، رغم بقائهم عاجزين عن التحدث مع محام أو إجراء أي اتصال آخر بالعالم الخارجي
قالت سارة عطية، زوجة القزاز، لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش إنها علمت من اتصالها المحدود بزوجها بأن الجيش احتجز المساعدين سوياً في غرفة واحدة، وسمح لهم بالخروج لمدة ساعة واحدة يومياً، وحرمهم من الوصول إلى الهواتف أو الإنترنت. أبدى أقارب المحتجزين قلقاً خاصاً على علي والحداد، اللذين يعانيان على حد قولهم من متاعب صحية مزمنة تتطلب الحصول بانتظام على الأدوية ومقابلة الأطباء
 قال عدد من أقارب المساعدين المختفين لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش إنهم يخشون من احتجاز الحكومة لذويهم لاستخدامهم كأوراق ضغط في التفاوض المستقبلي مع الإخوان المسلمين. وقال أحد أقارب الطهطاوي إنه يخشى أن تواصل السلطات احتجاز الطهطاوي حتى انتخاب رئيس جديد. وقالت منى القزاز، شقيقة القزاز، لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش إنها تعتقد أن شقيقها “محفوظ في الثلاجة” إلى حين أن تقوم الحكومة باستغلاله كورقة تفاوض مع الإخوان المسلمين. وقال عبد الله، نجل الحداد، إنه يشعر بقلق مماثل على والده، بالنظر إلى علاقته الوثيقة بمرسي
قال جميع الأقارب الذين أجرينا معهم المقابلات إنهم يشعرون بتخوف حين يتعلق الأمر بالتحدث عن ذويهم. وقالت عائلتا الحداد والقزاز، بوجه خاص، إن عدداً من أقاربهم قد تعرضوا للاحتجاز. في سبتمبر/أيلول قبضت قوات الأمن على جهاد، نجل عصام الحداد، الذي صار الناطق باسم الإخوان المسلمين بعد 30 يونيو/حزيران. وتم القبض على عدلي، والد القزاز، في أكتوبر/تشرين الأول. قالت ثلاثة عائلات لـ هيومن رايتس ووتش إن قوات الأمن داهمت منازلهم
كما أدلى مسؤولون حكوميون بتصريحات وفتحوا تحقيقات تتعلق بالشؤون الشخصية للمساعدين، جاعلين منهم أدوات لتفريغ شحنات النقد المستمر في وسائل الإعلام المصرية، دون فرصة للرد. على سبيل المثال، في 25 نوفمبر/تشرين الثاني أفادت صحيفة اليوم السابع بأن لجنة حكومية يرأسها وكيل أول وزارة العدل قد وضعت اسم الحداد في قائمة لأعضاء الإخوان المسلمين الممنوعين من التصرف في أموالهم
وورد في مقال بتاريخ 24 نوفمبر/تشرين الثاني، في صحيفة الأخبار الموالية للحكومة، أن وزير التعليم محمود أبو النصر دعا إلى إضافة مدرستي المقطم للغات والمقطم الدولية، اللتين يديرهما عدلي القزاز، إلى قائمة بمدارس الإخوان المسلمين المقرر وضعها تحت إدارة الحكومة، في أعقاب حكم قضائي يدعو إلى مصادرة أموال الجماعة
قالت منى القزاز إنها علمت من شقيقها المحتجز أن السلطات قامت في منتصف نوفمبر/تشرين الثاني بطباعة صورتها وتغريدة لها على موقع تويتر تنتقد الحكومة المؤقتة، وناولته الورقة المطبوعة، في محاولة لإسكاتها. وتشعر منى، إضافة إلى عبد الله الحداد، وكلاهما يقيم في لندن، بالقلق من ألا يستطيعا العودة إلى مصر لرؤية عائلتيهما قط، نتيجة نشاطهما السياسي
أبدى أقارب المحتجزين شعوراً بالإحباط العميق من جهلهم بسبب احتجاز السلطات لذويهم، وجهلهم إلى متى يستمر احتجازهم. قال أحد أقارب أيمن الصيرفي: “أريد معرفة مكانه. أريد أن أراه وأطمئن عليه”. وقالت سارة عطية، زوجة القزاز والأم لأربعة أبناء بدون أقارب في القاهرة: “لقد أصبحت فعلياً أماً عزباء طوال الشهور الأربعة الأخيرة”. وقالت منى القزاز: “لقد أخذوا منا كل شيء
بموجب القانون الدولي، فإن امتناع دولة من الدول عن الاعتراف باحتجاز شخص، أو الكشف عن مكانه ومصيره في أعقاب احتجازه أو قيام قوات تتبع الدولة بالقبض عليه، وعلى نحو يضع المحتجز خارج الحماية التي يكفلها القانون، يعتبر إخفاء قسرياً. وينتهك الإخفاء القسري الكثير من الحقوق المكفولة بموجب العهد الدولي الخاص بالحقوق المدنية والسياسية، الذي صدقت عليه مصر في 1982، بما فيها شرط مثول المحتجز سريعاً أمام قاض. وقد وصفت الجمعية العامة للأمم المتحدة الإخفاء القسري مراراً بأنه “جريمة بحق الكرامة الإنسانية” و”انتهاك فاضح وجسيم” للقانون الدولي لحقوق الإنسان
كما أن الإخفاء القسري يمثل جريمة “مستمرة” بموجب القانون الدولي؛ فهو يستمر ويواصل إحداث المعاناة بعائلة الضحية طالما ظل مصير الشخص المفقود غير معلوم أو محجوباً. ويعترف إعلان حماية جميع الأشخاص من الاختفاء القسري، الذي أعلنته الجمعية العامة للأمم المتحدة في 1992، يعترف بممارسة “الإخفاء” كانتهاك لحقوق المحتجز في الإجراءات القضائية السليمة، وفي حرية الفرد وأمنه. وينص الإعلان، كإجراء لمنع عمليات الإخفاء، على ضرورة وضع المحتجزين في أماكن احتجاز معترف بها رسمياً، وضرورة إبلاغ ذويهم بتلك الأماكن على وجه السرعة، وضرورة منحهم حق التواصل مع محام، وضرورة احتفاظ كل مكان مخصص للاحتجاز بسجل رسمي محدّث يدرج كافة الأشخاص المحرومين من حريتهم داخل المقر.
ورغم أن الإعلان غير ملزم إلآ أنه يعكس العُرف الدولي ضد الاختفاء القسري، والذي دُعم أكثر بتبني الاتفاقية الدولية لحماية جميع الأشخاص من الاختفاء القسري في 2006
تقرر المادة الأولى من الاتفاقية، التي لم توقع مصر عليها أو انضمت إليها، أنه “لا يجوز التذرع بأية ظروف استثنائية من أي نوع، سواء كانت حالة الحرب أو التهديد بها، أو عدم الاستقرار السياسي الداخلي أو أية حالة طوارئ عامة، كمبرر للاختفاء القسري”. وتمضي الاتفاقية فتدعو الدول إلى التحقيق في حالات الاختفاء، ومحاسبة الجناة، وتعويض الضحايا على نحو ملائم
قالت سارة ليا ويتسن: “إن الإخفاء القسري المطول لأي شخص يشكل جريمة، ببساطة ودون مواربة. وعلى السلطات المصرية إطلاق سراحهم فوراً ودون قيد أو شرط
