“cheapest occupation in the world”
Actually no, for it is the most profitable occupation the world has ever known. For legal ownership of trillions of dollars of priceless real estate, not occupation, is what the immoral “international community” has given to the most immoral corporate rich who own most of Zionist Israel.
Let me guess, the corporate rich who own most of Israel, they are a multinational power combine that does not even live in Israel.
