The Community and Security situation in the Palestinian territories

One can notice that the situation in the Palestinian community is becoming worse since the beginning of the second Intifada and the damage that happened to the Palestinian security forces. Each city of the Palestinian cities in the West Bank, Gaza, and Jerusalem is suffering from community problems, economical crisis, and no security or control at all.If we take East Jerusalem for example and look at each part of it, we can see that the community is suffering and there is no security at all inside the city or in the area around it. The people that live in East Jerusalem almost know nothing about the importance of teaching their children and prefer to send them to work in order to help in bringing food, shelter for the family, and paying the taxes that they are supposed to pay to the Israeli state. The life of a child starts by sending him to school until he reaches the seventh grade then he starts his hard way to life by starting to learn to work as a mechanical or an electrician or even a builder in order to help his dad in bringing money back for the family and this affects on his all life by making him ignorant and preventing him from having one of his simple rights which is education.In the future this will affect on all the Palestinian community by bringing more uneducated people that are supposed to lead this country and build the future state of Palestine.One other important subject that affects on each one that live in East Jerusalem I the security that they can’t get and the reason simply is that there is no one to bring them security or put law and lines for their daily life. The Israeli police does not interfere with the internal affairs of the Palestinians that live in East Jerusalem and even does not pay any attention to the drug problem, crime, and several other problems that the Palestinian community suffer from, indeed these problems could help Israel in a way or another to keep the people busy in drugs and crime instead of asking for their rights. The Palestinian security forces and police are forbidden from working in East Jerusalem, and if Israel knows about anyone who works, it sends him to prison charging him of breaking the Oslo agreement laws.The victim at the end is the people that suffer daily and no one is ready to give them their basic rights.
