'Israel licensed to destroy with impunity'

Amid "illegal" Israeli plans to destroy Palestinian homes, a former US congresswoman says Tel Aviv has "impunity" for the aggressive efforts of the pro-Israel lobby in the US.

"The United States and Europe give Israel impunity," Cynthia McKinney said in an interview with Press TV.

The remarks came after Richard Falk, the UN special rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories, slammed Tel Aviv's plan to demolish some 20 Palestinian homes in the Silwan neighborhood of East al-Quds (Jerusalem).

Israel says the homes should be flattened as part of "the King's Garden project" -- a park and a public complex.

Falk, however, argues that the move is illegal. "International law does not allow Israel to bulldoze Palestinians homes to make space for the Mayor's project to build a garden, or anything else."
