Pure news manipulation.

The Israeli courts are no friends of the so-called 'settlers;, but they have now TWICE ordered the Arabs who currently occupy what had been Jewish owned property to vacate. The crux of the matter is not just the Nahalat Shimon purchase, but the ownership of the place by Jews in 1929 when Arab gangs threw the Jews out and took possession with no offer of compensation. Now the Palestinian Authority has taken advantage of a propensity by AP reporters to fail to check background facts in order to manipulate news coverage by dressing it up as a 'humanitarian issue". Did anyone notice that the PA calls for the death penalty for anyone who sells land to Jews (Jews not Israelis)? Did anyone notice the PA is calling the Jordanians co-conspirators here? or wonder why? Bottom line, eviction notice against non-owner residents was lawfully implemented and only one side of only part of the story is being reported.

Uppsala people

I read Israelis were holding 2 Swedish acivists 8 h in jail. I am sure more Swedes head to stop shame throwing people out of homes. Does not matter who came first but it matters what one do in the end. It matters to do right things and go sleep well.

Bravo...: Time for Occupiers to Go!

Jerusalem has been occupied by the Palestinians for far too long....

Soon to be occupied no more. Send them back to Jordan. Jordan is "Palestine"
