Ever since Yitzhak Rabin was elected prime minister of Israel, all the inhabitants of the land, Israelis and Palestinians, have been busy discussing self government and the nature of autonomy in the Occupied Territories: Will autonomy be nothing more than the old occupation in a new outfit, or will the negotiations actually bring about a new situation, which will ultimately lead to Israeli withdrawal and to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.
BADIL Resource Center for Palestinian Residency and Refugee Rights is an independent, community-based non-profit organization mandated to defend and promote the rights of Palestinian refugees and IDPs. Our vision, missions, programs and relationships are defined by our Palestinian identity and the principles of international law, in particular international human rights law. We seek to advance the individual and collective rights of the Palestinian people on this basis.
