In that time, the Hashemite Kingdom ethnically cleansed its Jewish residents and\u200c destroyed dozens of synagogues.<\/p>\n<p>It renamed the\u200c region the &#8220;West Bank,&#8221; meaning \u2063west of the Jordan River, to sever any Jewish connection to the land in\u2062 an attempt to legitimize its \u200coccupation of territory that was never within its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/e-u-to-launch-sanctions-against-those-involved-in-russias-decision-to-recognize-separatist-regions\/\" title=\"E.U.

That&#8217;s how this whole monster was created,&#8221; says Naomi Kahn, international director of Regavim.<\/p>\n<p>The monster she is referring to is the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, \u200cotherwise known as Israel&#8217;s Civil Administration, a unit of the Defense Ministry established to govern the local population in\u200c <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/op-ed-not-secret-conspiracy-eu-encourages-palestinians-violate-international-law\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Area C<\/a> and manage all issues \u200cpertaining to civilians, both Jewish and Arab.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of extending Israeli law to the territory \u200bliberated in 1967, Israel&#8217;s \u2064leaders chose to &#8220;temporarily&#8221; maintain the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-revokes-trumps-order-targeting-online-censorship\/\" title=\"Biden Revokes Trump\u2019s Order Targeting Online Censorship\">existing legal framework<\/a> until a negotiated solution with \u200cthe Arabs could be reached. To this day, the Commander of the Central Region, rather than elected \u200brepresentatives, retains the ability to legislate and administer Area C.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am personally living under military rule,&#8221; Kahn says.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not only inefficient, but also ridiculous.
