Tepi Barat

Tepi Barat (bahasa Arab: الضفة الغربية, aḍ-Ḍiffä l-Ġarbīyä, bahasa Ibrani: יהודה ושומרון‎, Hagadah Hama'aravit, bahasa Inggris: West Bank), disebut demikian karena hubungannya dengan Sungai Yordan, merupakan wilayah yang lebih besar dari dua wilayah Palestina (yang lainnya adalah Jalur Gaza). Wilayah yang terkurung daratan di dekat pantai Laut Mediterania di wilayah Levant di Asia Barat,^[5] ini berbatasan dengan Yordania dan Laut Mati di sebelah timur dan Israel (melalui Garis Hijau) di sebelah selatan, barat, dan utara.

Peta Tepi Barat

Konversi Mandat Britania atas Palestina menjadi Negara Israel memicu perang antara Arab dan Israel, setelah itu Tepi Barat diduduki oleh negara mayoritas Arab, Yordania. Pada tahun 1950, Yordania mencaplok wilayah tersebut dan menguasainya hingga Perang Enam Hari 1967, ketika wilayah tersebut direbut dan diduduki oleh Israel. Sejak saat itu, Israel mengelola Tepi Barat sebagai Wilayah Yudea dan Samaria, dan memperluas klaimnya ke Yerusalem Timur pada tahun 1980. Pada pertengahan tahun 1990-an, Perjanjian Oslo membagi Tepi Barat menjadi tiga wilayah kedaulatan Palestina, melalui Otoritas Nasional Palestina (PNA): Wilayah A (PNA), Wilayah B (PNA dan Israel), dan Wilayah C (Israel, yang terdiri dari 60% wilayah Tepi Barat). PNA menjalankan administrasi sipil secara keseluruhan atau sebagian atas 165 daerah kantong Palestina di ketiga wilayah tersebut. Karena kedua wilayah Palestina (termasuk Yerusalem Timur) diklaim oleh Negara Palestina, kedua wilayah tersebut tetap menjadi pusat konflik Israel-Palestina.

Masyarakat internasional menganggap permukiman Israel di Tepi Barat sebagai ilegal menurut hukum internasional.^[6][7][8][9] Area C berisi 230 permukiman Israel yang di dalamnya berlaku hukum Israel dan berdasarkan Perjanjian Oslo, sebagian besar permukiman tersebut seharusnya dialihkan ke PNA pada tahun 1997, namun hal ini tidak terjadi.^[10] Mengutip undang-undang tahun 1980 di mana Israel mengklaim Yerusalem sebagai ibu kotanya, perjanjian perdamaian Israel-Yordania tahun 1994, dan Perjanjian Oslo, sebuah keputusan penasehat tahun 2004 dari Mahkamah Internasional menyimpulkan bahwa Tepi Barat, termasuk Yerusalem Timur, masih merupakan wilayah yang diduduki Israel.^[11]

Tepi Barat memiliki luas wilayah sekitar 5.640 kilometer persegi (2.180 mil persegi). Diperkirakan terdapat 2.747.943 penduduk Palestina, dan lebih dari 670.000 pemukim Israel tinggal di Tepi Barat, di mana sekitar 220.000 di antaranya tinggal di Yerusalem Timur.

International Journal of Constitutional Law. 4 (3): 548. doi:10.1093/icon/mol021 . The real controversy hovering over all the litigation on the security barrier concerns the fate of the Israeli settlements in the occupied territories. Since 1967, Israel has allowed and even encouraged its citizens to live in the new settlements established in the territories, motivated by religious and national sentiments attached to the history of the Jewish nation in the land of Israel. This policy has also been justified in terms of security interests, taking into consideration the dangerous geographic circumstances of Israel before 1967 (where Israeli areas on the Mediterranean coast were potentially threatened by Jordanian control of the West Bank ridge). The international community, for its part, has viewed this policy as patently illegal, based on the provisions of the Fourth Geneva Convention that prohibit moving populations to or from territories under occupation.

It can thus clearly be concluded that the transfer of Israeli settlers into the occupied territories violates not only the laws of belligerent occupation but the Palestinian right of self-determination under international law. The question remains, however, whether this is of any practical value. In other words, given the view of the international community that the Israeli settlements are illegal under the law if belligerent occupation, what purpose does it serve to establish that an additional breach of international law has occurred?
