	B'Tselem - 3 July 2006: Revocation of residency of Hamas members from Jerusalem is illegal
		It should be noted that, despite Israel 's annexation, East Jerusalem is an integral part of the Occupied Territories, so its Palestinian residents are protected by the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits the occupying power from forcibly transferring civilians from their homes.
		In annexing the territory, Israeli flagrantly breached international law, which prohibits "acquisition of territory by force" and change in the legislation in occupied territory.
		Therefore, although Israeli law considers Jerusalem part of the State of Israel, under international law, East Jerusalem continues to be occupied territory, whose status is the same as that of other areas in the West Bank.

		Jerusalem has been at the center of Jewish consciousness for over three thousand years, even before King David made it the capital of his kingdom in 1004 B.C.E. Such biblical events as the binding of Isaac and Jacob's ladder have traditionally been connected to Jerusalem.
		The barbed wire and concrete barriers which had divided Jerusalem were finally torn down, and Israeli law, jurisdiction and administration was extended to the eastern neighborhoods of the city.
		In 1980, the Knesset legislated the 'Basic Law: Jerusalem, Capital of Israel', which restates the position that "Jerusalem, complete and united, is the capital of Israel" and the seat of its main governing bodies.

	Foundation for Middle East Peace :: Israeli Attempt to Impose Absentee Property Law to Arab Property in East Jerusalem
		Investigative reporting uncovered that use of the Law was authorized in a secret decision of the Ministerial Committee on Jerusalem Affairs, chaired by Natan Sharansky, held in June 2004, and authorized by the government in July.
		Under the original law, Palestinians could become "absentees" without leaving their homes, because, in the period from 1947 to 1967 they were living in the Land of Israel, but not the State of Israel.
		It should also be noted that, because of the original use of the Absentee Property Law to transfer millions of acres of Palestinian lands to the new State of Israel, the Israeli authorities, including the Israeli High Court is extremely reluctant to deal with the use of the Law in Jerusalem today.
