Nobel-winning Tunisian author denounces Gaza and West Bank land seizures
The Austrian author and Nobel laureate Elfriede Jelinek discussed in her article "In a Promised Land" Israel's seizure of lands in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and Jerusalem. She condemned the settlement policies that threaten the chances of establishing a Palestinian state, expressing concerns over ethnic cleansing operations and plans to build resorts on those lands, citing statements by Trump who described Gaza as "a beautiful piece of land." Jelinek called for the imposition of European sanctions on the violence of Israeli settlers and land confiscations, emphasizing that history should not prevent criticism, and that settlement expansion threatens a two-state solution and keeps the region in a state of tension.
