| Israel to build 1,220 housing units in West Bank | |
| 2014-03-21 | |
Israel has approved to build 1, 220 new housing units in its largest settlement in the West Bank, local media said on Thursday, Xinhua reported. Out of the total, the Civil Administration, Israel's governing body in occupied West Bank, approved 839 housing units in a new neighborhood of Ariel, the largest settlement there.
The plan was initiated by the hawkish Housing and Construction Minister Uri Ariel, a prominent proponent of the settlement movement and former Secretary General of Yesha, the umbrella organization of municipal councils of the settlements. Earlier Wednesday the Jerusalem Local Planning Committee just approved the construction of 184 new housing units beyond the Green Line. | |

| #2 This morning I find myself in full agreement with Spereting; of course I also have a sore throat, so maybe I'm sick. |

| #1 Somebody wins and somebody loses. There will NEVER be any Kumbaya between Islam and the Israelis until one of them eats dirt by the shovel load. That is the ONLY way they can be resolved. Anything else is fantasy or worse. Decide who you want to win. Then throw your weight and join the fight. Or shut up and get out of the way. Kerry and his kind are as much enemies as glass in your eye. Useless is the kindest way to describe them. Fools don't live to be old. You want Peace....then you have to see clearly and act on reality. There is only ONE reality, there are no alternatives. Settlements WORK, The enemy hates them. NEVER do what your Enemy wants. There can be only one winner. Do what works and keep doing it. Do it until you win. |
