According to anti-settlement watchdog Peace Now, Israel has approved another 1,950 settlement homes to be constructed across the occupied West Bank. The construction was approved on Sunday and Monday.
The approvals came in two chunks. 800 units were given final approval for the construction, while the other 1,150 were given initial approval to start the process. Settlements often have to go through several stages of approval before being occupied.
Peace Now warned that of the new units, 89% of them are in settlements which Israel may have to evacuate under a future peace agreement with Palestine. This suggests the other settlements are in East Jerusalem or in the main bloc nearby.
Peace Now was particularly critical over the moves, coming amid a caretaker government with Israel’s latest election ending indecisively. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has all but ruled out peace with the Palestinians, which is likely why settlement construction is in territory that would be Palestinian in a deal.
Chosen ones choosing to treat Palestinians like infected vermin.
Don’t kid yourself, Israel ain’t gonna vacate one inch of occupied Palestine. There is only one solution–de-establish the Zionist state.
The only “peace deal” envisioned by Israel is taking Palestinian territory, piece by piece.
Israel is a state with no real borders. Just like the USA in the 19th Century, Israel will continue to expand and exploit indigenous people. Zionism is a perverse racist ideology that will ultimately be its own demise in a horrible conflagration like what’s coming up with Iran. It can’t happen soon enough. Problem is… It will almost certainly go nuclear.
Ur, House of Abraham, is on the dream Zionist map. It is near Kuwait.
And the apartheid genocidal regime marches on.
