Description
Summary:The article aims to describe the Israeli colonization and its crimes against the Palestinian environment and to question the capacity of international environmental law to take into account the claims of vulnerable groups such as the Palestinians and the State responsibility for environmental crimes. Beyond the peace process and the discourse of parity, the colonization of Palestinian occupied territory is in accelerating and intensifying rhythm. In this colonization, natural resources are exploited, and Palestinian lands are transformed into a tame for toxic and dangerous wastes. It seems that international environmental law provides some means of struggle for Palestinians, but it is still limited when it comes to non-state and non-dominant group rights. Regarding environmental crimes, it seems that international environmental law favors a collective conception of responsibility that must be seen as complementary to individual responsibility.
