Under international law, every settlement built in territory under a military occupation is illegal. But Migron, an outpost built in the West Bank without even the approval of the Israeli government, is doubly illegal.
The settlement has been ordered evacuated multiple times since 2003, and after numerous extensions it became the largest of Israel’s “unauthorized” settlements. In August the Israeli High Court finally weighed in on the question, giving the government until April to complete the process.
The government made it clear it was just going to ignore the order, and was talking about a “compromise” to allow a “voluntary evacuation,” purring the process off until 2015. Today, the High Court again ruled, saying that this was not acceptable, and that Migron needs to be evacuated by August 1.
Israel’s right-wing MPs are up in arms at the decision, accusing the High Court of “favoring the Arab interest over Jewish settlement.” One, MP Aryeh Eldad, went on to say that the court would be responsible for “any blood spilled in Migron,” as a number of the illegal settlers have vowed to resist the evacuation by force.
The ideal would be if domestic war erupted in Israel, so they kill each other. Peace in ME is possible without Zionist treat only – anyway.
The one and only thing that keeps israel afloat is yankee money which is fast running out when that happens as is surely would they will vanisg from the pagesof history to coin a phrase.

And is called democracy in action, a democracy where the government wont respect its own high court ruling. The irony is that such “democracy” by the West called the "only democracy” in Middle east, off course Israel is the only kind of such democracy in Middle east, there is non like it exist even in dictatorial world. And if you acting as such then you become as the one and acting only as a dictatorial regime based on racism, fascism, militarism and everything in between supporting such “democracy" but democracy itself.
What a switch. The Israeli high court rules under the law while our high court is political in its rulings.
People forget that the so called "67 borders" really refer to the 1949 armistace line… so those lands were in contention to begin with.
I won't hold my breadth while awaiting for this particular settlement (or any other) to be dismantled. Besides, even if by a miracle they did, what about the hundreds of others that have made of what was supposed to be Palestine something that looks more than a Swiss cheese than a nation fit for human habitation?
