The month of December in Palestine is linked to a series of events and tragedies, which the Palestinian memory has documented in records, including those related to the rights of Palestinians in terms of violations and illegal Israeli crimes, and also the bias of some to political agendas at the expense of the rights of the Palestinian people, and perhaps the most important and painful of these events Jerusalem, when it was - and still is - the focus of targeting the occupation, by virtue of its symbolism and its location in the conscience of Arabs and Muslims, since the British Mandate and Israel's occupation of the holy city in the wars of 1948 and 1967, and the occupation focused its policies and measures to Judaize the city and empty it of its people in various ways.

This is what was documented in 1917 when the British Mandate occupied Jerusalem in December 1917, a month after the Balfour Declaration was issued, as Jerusalem fell as a result of the battle that took place between the British Empire and the Ottoman Empire in 1917 (1), and the British Empire calls the battle " Operation Jerusalem, "ended with the surrender of Jerusalem and the British Empire's occupation of Palestine.

The battle took place when the fighting developed on November 17, and continued until the surrender and surrender of the British on December 30, 1917, and it is clear to us that the British occupied Palestine in World War I after their success in expelling the Ottomans.

As the British Foreign Secretary at the time, Arthur Balfour, issued his famous promise, which stated that “His Majesty's government looks with sympathy to the establishment of a national home in Palestine for the Jewish people, and will make every effort to facilitate the achievement of this goal, provided that it is clearly understood that no action will be forthcoming. It would detract from the civil and religious rights enjoyed by the non-Jewish communities residing in Palestine, nor the rights or political status that Jews enjoy in any other country "(2).

December also documents the declaration by Ben Gurion, the first prime minister of the Israeli occupation in 1949, that Jerusalem will be the capital of Israel, and after that, on July 31, 1980, the Israeli Knesset deputies voted for the decision "Basic Law: Jerusalem is the capital of Israel", which decided to declare Jerusalem with the borders 1967, drawn up by the government, a constitutional principle in the Israeli constitution;

This prompted the Security Council to issue Resolutions No. 476 and 478.

They blamed Israel.

Because of the passage of this law, and confirmed that it violates international law, and would prevent the continuation of the application of the Fourth Geneva Convention in 1949 on the eastern part of Jerusalem, as the city is supposed to be within the Jerusalem Governorate of the Palestinian National Authority (3).

This month documents the Shuaiba uprising, in which children who had not yet completed their ten years of age to claim their right to self-determination. The United Nations documented its resolution, number 3236, on November 22, 1974 with 89 votes in favor of 8 rejections and 37 abstentions, and this decision bears the title "The rights of the Palestinian people", in which it affirms the inalienable rights of the people of Palestine. Thus, the Intifada began on December 8, 1987, and that was in Jabalia, in the Gaza Strip.

Then it moved to all the cities, villages and camps of Palestine.

Which was the start of the Fatah movement on January 1, 1965, and it was considered one of the first movements of the Palestinian struggle against the Israeli occupation, so that the Fatah movement was linked to its leader Yasser Arafat until his death in 2004.

The strangest thing is that in December 2016, a team from the United States began conducting field tests with representatives from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Israeli Ministry of Immigrant Absorption, to transfer the embassy to the "Diplomat" Hotel, which was chosen to be the headquarters of the American embassy in Jerusalem.

This month also monitors the positions of the United Nations when the United Nations General Assembly issued Resolution No. 302, to issue the International Agency for the Relief and Employment of Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) on December 8, 1987 (4).

We also find this month the decision of the United States of America to establish a dialogue with the Palestine Liberation Organization.

December 16, 1949, and in 1984, the US Congress prohibited government employees from any contact or negotiation with the PLO;

Unless the organization recognized Israel's right to exist and to implement United Nations Resolutions 242 and 338, and to reject violence.

In 1987, the US Congress considered the Palestine Liberation Organization a terrorist organization, by approving on December 22 of the same year the "fighting terrorism" law, which is considered one of the worst laws, if not the most hostile to the Palestine Liberation Organization.

The United States closed the organization’s media office and its mission office in the United Nations in Washington. The law is not limited to denying Palestinians their representation on US soil, but also preventing them from receiving or sending anything of value from the organization or disbursing money to it in The United States, and this law remained in effect to this day, and it was confirmed on February 16, 1990 (5).

The strangest thing is that in December 2016, a team from the United States began conducting field tests with representatives from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Israeli Ministry of Immigrant Absorption, to transfer the embassy to the "Diplomat" Hotel, which was chosen to be the headquarters of the American embassy in Jerusalem. Southeast Jerusalem, where the Israeli Immigration and Absorption Department works, and elderly immigrant diplomats, most of them from the former Soviet Union, reside in the hotel, and about 500 retired immigrants are still staying in it;

It cannot be evacuated until after 2020.

As for the western coincidence, on December 6, 2017, US President Trump announced in his Jerusalem speech that the United States recognized Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel, and that he had instructed State Department employees to start preparations for the transfer of the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

In February 2018, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the ambassador would travel to the consulate compound in Jerusalem on May 14, 2018, in honor of the 70th anniversary of Israel's independence (6).

The UAE, Bahrain, Morocco and other brotherly and dear countries have also started the ceremony for signing the normalization agreement between them and Israel, so I first think that what the Israeli Knesset did in terms of voting on the legalization of the Israeli settlement outposts, which numbered 130 illegal settlements, will be. The biggest obstacle "and an attempt to block the road to the Biden administration;

For not reviving any political process whose reference is made by international legitimacy decisions, and the possibility of establishing a Palestinian state, secondly, busy and exhausting the Palestinian negotiator with files here and there without exerting any international pressure on the daily occupation practices against the Palestinian people, and therefore I do not believe that these occupational decisions seek to achieve peace with the Palestinian people. Therefore, the West Bank remains between the "Knesset sin" of legitimizing the outposts, and the "sins of Arab normalization" that is not studied and does not try to convince the occupying state of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.

On December 21, 2020, the Israeli Knesset decided to read the preliminary reading of the Settlement Outposts Law in the West Bank, which means the legalization of the random outposts scattered in the West Bank, and giving them legal status, which number about 130 settlement outposts, and are inhabited by more than 10 thousand settlers.

I say in the last of my article Palestine spoke and believed, and said I do not like 3 words: I do not know, I cannot, impossible;

But I will be liberated from you, so if the towering Alps are preventing me from advancing, they must be removed from the ground.
