Please read the following links by Steven Plaut. Caroline Glick. Arlene Kushner, Ted Belman, Moshe Dann, also re: Tzippy Hotoveli Bill

Steven Plaut Settlements are not just legal, but necessary

Caroline Glick: Column One: Obama's spectacular failure

US agrees, settlements are "not illegal"



I continue to see enthusiastic responses to the Levy Report, and want, once again to offer this word of caution: Little has happened unless Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Ministerial Committee on Settlements endorse the report and adopt its recommendations. A very good place to start would be with Migron, but much more beyond this will be needed.  I am still holding my breath.

In coming posts I will have a great deal more to say about this entire issue.  Here I would like to recommend a piece by 

Moshe Dann, "Edmund Levy's revolution," which touches upon some important bases.

~~~~~~~~~~

MK Tzipi Hotovely (Likud) who is submitting a bill to enter the Levy Report into law, has made a very significant point in an article she has just written on the same subject:

Only 10% of Judea and Samaria has been used for building. And this includes the major Palestinian Arab population centers in places such as Ramallah, Hevron and Schechem (Nablus).  And then, "among the built-up portions, only 3% is Jewish."

Hotovely's point is that there is tremendous potential for Jewish settlement that has not begun to be realized -- but can be when Israeli law is applied to Judea and Samaria .


But I would also make another point.  When one understands the reality on the ground, it becomes very readily apparent what a crock it is, that "settlements" are a stumbling block.
