Leilani Farha, ‘Bringing Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights Home: Palestinians in Occupied East Jerusalem and Israel,’ in Isfahan Merali, Valerie Oosterveld (eds.), 'Giving Meaning to Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights',University of Pennsylvania Press, 2001, pp160-179
-Text:Building permits are impossible to obtain. ‘the only way a Palestinian can receive a building permit is if the applicant can prove sole ownership of or title to the plot of land on which he or she wishes to build or renovate. As the Israeli government knows, this is practically impossible because when Israel occupied what is now East Jerusalem, 80 percent of the land was privately owned by Arabs but only one-third had been formally surveyed and registered by the Jordanian government. Since 1967 no land registration for Palestinians has been permitted' p.162
-In the notes (n.3 p.254) she refers us to the United Nations Commission on Human Settlements, HS/C/14/2/Add.1 at 7 (1992), “Housing Requirements of the Palestinians,” which states: “The military occupation and colonial policy of the occupying power which is aimed at the Judaization of the land had extremely adverse effects on the Palestinian housing sector.”
The Article texts claims that "The claim that Israel is promoting the "Judaization" of Jerusalem, and especially the Temple Mount, has been promoted by Palestinian Islamist groups such as Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad". Well, that phallacious and reductionist accusation leaves intentionally aside many other Palestinian groups and instituions, as well as historians (for example, Rashid Khalidi, Nur Masalha...). Non-Islamist political groups, Human Rights groups, advocate groups, Christian Churches and personalities have been denouncing the Judaization and Hebreization of Jerusalem and of Palestine as a whole, a process thought of and implemented since more than 80 years ago. As a sample, you could read and quote passages of Nur Masalha's Palestine: A four thousand years History' (I.B. Tauris, London, 2021). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.39.218.17 (talk) 15:49, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to add a citation for the statement appearing the article: "The creation of a Jewish majority in Jerusalem has always been a high priority of the Israeli government, after 1947 in West Jerusalem and after 1967 in East Jerusalem. "
The citation documenting Israeli policy after 1967 seeking to ensure/increase Jewish majority is by Chesin, Hutman and Melamed, Separate and Unequal: The Inside Story of Israeli Rule in East Jerusalem, Harvard University Press, 1999. Wikiyahu (talk) 09:53, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Demographic history of Jerusalem by religion, based on available data
Muslims
Jews
Christians
This article should link directly to Demographic history of Jerusalem for context, since the subject is so directly related. The following graph, from that article, should be added. --Scharb (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 04:18, 30 August 2021
Additionally, the wording "approved a law that Arab store owners in all of Jerusalem must include at least 50% of their signs in Hebrew" should be changed to "approved a law that all store owners in Jerusalem, including Arabs, must include at least 50% of their signs in Hebrew" --Scharb (talk) 04:31, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
