An analyst says the Israeli regime under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has a vision of stripping Palestinians in the occupied territories of their rights.\n\n\nMore than half a million Israelis live in over 120 illegal settlements built since Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and East al-Quds (Jerusalem) in 1967.\n\nMuch of the international community considers the settlements illegal because the territories were captured by Israel in a war in 1967 and are hence subject to the Geneva Conventions
