UN anti- racial discrimination committee condemns Israel
Israel-UN, Politics, 8/19/2003
United Nations anti-racial discrimination committee unanimously condemned Israel yesterday in the UN headquarters in Geneva.
All members announced that Israel is violating the International Convention on Human Rights and the committee demanded Israel to cancel the law it issued lately that prevents Palestinians who marry Arab Israeli women to live together in one place.
The committee said that this law flagrantly violates human rights such as denying the Palestinians married to Arab Israeli women the Israeli nationality or the right of residence in Israel.
This law was issued last July as a result of Israel's fears because of the increasing number of marriages between Palestinian men and Arab Israeli women that reached 100.000.
