Area C (Tepi Barat)

Area C (bahasa Ibrani: שטח C‎; bahasa Arab: منطقة ج) adalah sebuah divisi administratif Oslo II di Tepi Barat, yang diartikan senbagai "wilayah Tepi Barat di luar Area A dan B". Area C meliputi sekitar 61 persen teritorial Tepi Barat. Wilayah tersebut dihimpun pada 1995 melalui Perjanjian Oslo II untuk "secara bertahap dialihkan ke yurisdiksi Palestina", namun peralihan semacam itu tidak terjadi.[1]:vii

Area C berwarna biru. Yerusalem Timur berwarna merah

Area C, kecuali Yerusalem Timur, adalah tempat tinggal dari 385.900 pemukim Israel[2] dan sekitar 300.000 warga Palestina.[3] Populasi Yahudi di Area C diurus olehg administrasi Area Yudea dan Samaria, dimana penduduk Palestina diurus langsung oleh Koordinator Kegiatan Pemerintahan dalam Teritorial Israel dan secara tak langsung oleh Otoritas Nasional Palestina di Ramallah.[4] Otoritas Palestina bertanggung jawab atas pelayanan kesehatan dan pendidikan orang Palestina di Area C. Namun, pembangunan infrastruktur diurus oleh Israel.[5]

Komunitas internasional menganggap pemukiman di wilayah pendudukan bersifat ilegal,[6][7][8][9][10][11] dan Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa berulang kali menyatakan pandangan bahwa pembangunan pemukiman Israel adalah pelanggaran Konvensi Jenewa Keempat.[12][13][14][15] Israel mempersengketakan posisi komunitas internasional dan argumen-argumen hukum yang dipakai untuk menyebut pemukiman tersebut bersifat ilegal.[16] "Pos-pos terdepan" juga bertentangan dengan hukum Israel.[17]

The international community has taken a critical view of both deportations and settlements as being contrary to international law. General Assembly resolutions have condemned the deportations since 1969, and have done so by overwhelming majorities in recent years. Likewise, they have consistently deplored the establishment of settlements, and have done so by overwhelming majorities throughout the period (since the end of 1976) of the rapid expansion in their numbers. The Security Council has also been critical of deportations and settlements; and other bodies have viewed them as an obstacle to peace, and illegal under international law.

Oxford University Press. 4 (3): 548. doi:10.1093/icon/mol021 . The real controversy hovering over all the litigation on the security barrier concerns the fate of the Israeli settlements in the occupied territories. Since 1967, Israel has allowed and even encouraged its citizens to live in the new settlements established in the territories, motivated by religious and national sentiments attached to the history of the Jewish nation in the land of Israel. This policy has also been justified in terms of security interests, taking into consideration the dangerous geographic circumstances of Israel before 1967 (where Israeli areas on the Mediterranean coast were potentially threatened by Jordanian control of the West Bank ridge). The international community, for its part, has viewed this policy as patently illegal, based on the provisions of the Fourth Geneva Convention that prohibit moving populations to or from territories under occupation.

It can thus clearly be concluded that the transfer of Israeli settlers into the occupied territories violates not only the laws of belligerent occupation but the Palestinian right of self-determination under international law. The question remains, however, whether this is of any practical value. In other words, given the view of the international community that the Israeli settlements are illegal under the law if belligerent occupation...
