The problem with this report and ones like is they are intentionally or negligently misleading. First, I agree that certain elements within Israel do not stand firm on moral highground. I can also say that in some ways what goes on in the West Bank resembles aspects of Apartheid but let's not forget that Arab Israeli citizens vote and hold seats in the Kinesset and thus the use of the word apartheid is misleading and wrongly inflammatory and burdens Israel with the yoke of colonization, which is entirely misplaced.

Now, my understanding of those events outlined in the link is that the people who were allegedly being forcibly evicted had legitimately sold their homes/land and kept the money and refused to leave--and that for years and years, as much as 30, the new rightful owners and the govt tried to get them out by other means than the legal forcible evictions complained about and used as reasons by the Palestinian groups to foment violence in the spring of 2021. So, I don't accept Amnesty Int'l's propaganda. Israel will always lose the propaganda war when faced with lies, distortions, and half truths like these that good people accept. For me, this weakens anything that Amnesty International says about anything. I'm not saying that Amnesty Int'l is purposely lying/misleading. They could be dupes.
