The uncontrolled arrogance of pro-Palestinian officials in Israeli establishment (from: mattot.arim@gmail.com)
The Ministerial Committee on Settlements instructed the State Attorneys' Office
to prepare a response to the High Court
The response should clarify that if the Migron community had indeed bought the disputed land,
there clearly was no reason to evacuate the Migron homes
State Attorney Osnat Mandel and Attorney-General Yehuda Weinstein simply
refused to carry out the instruction. http://www.eish-l.org/s/mdlz72
Instead of representing the ministers in court, attys Mandel & Weinstein turned on their own ministers
This exposed the two attorneys as belonging to the political persuasion of Talia Sasson
Sasson was a pro-Palestinian legal expert who set policy during Ariel Sharon's era
and shortly afterward joined the tiny, radically pro-Palestinian Meretz party.
Since Sasson's time, the new Edmond Levy legal experts' committee has come out with
legal findings that completely discredit the conclusions Sasson reached.
* Please write to the Ministerial Committee on Settlements about this
For example, you might write: "Dear Ministers, If Osnat Mandel and Yehuda Weinstein continue to refuse to carry out your policies then - with respect -- they must be dismissed.
As a voter / friend of Israel, I expect you not merely to formulate policies, but
to insist on their implementation -- including terminating employment of any out-of-control
officials who arrogantly refuse to do their job. Sincerely yours, (YOUR FULL NAME)
** The email addresses of the ministers on the committee are:

Is There a Law/ Nachi Eyal

Those who thoroughly read through the eighty-nine pages of the Levy Committee Report will find it extremely difficult to comprehend that, absurdly, the only place in the free world where racial discrimination takes place in regard to land, is actually in Judea and Samaria.

In not one of the revised countries of the world are there discriminatory laws and rules in practice that discriminate against Jews who wish to acquire land and/or build on it. There are a multitude of orders and directives aimed at preventing Jews from building, owning land, and cultivating and developing communities in Judea and Samaria.

The Legal Advisors of the Civil Administration are a link in the chain which begins with the Attorney General. When issues arise regarding land disputes there is clear discrimination against one side of the conflict, and this is the Jewish side.

The Levy Committee masterfully describes how the government, through the Civil Administration and its Legal Advisors are depriving the Jewish residents of their property rights. The public's right to knowledge and its ability to review the Civil Administration's databases which contain information on rights to the land in Judea and Samaria no longer exist.

The Levy Committee also describes how, through criminal negligence, the land survey of Judea and Samaria has been delayed, all the while assisting the Arabs to claim rights over land they have no connection with.

In many chapters of the report the Committee protests that it is the Civil Administration and not Judiciary are the ones who rule in land conflicts, without holding any form of debate, and is only based on claims and documents with which they are presented. As in unenlightened countries, there is no way to appeal these decisions.

When Post-Zionist organizations and Arabs appeal to the Supreme Court, the judges base their rulings on government statements – which are themselves based on investigations carried out by the army.

The greatest significance of the Levy Committee Report filed last week, is in the understanding that the State of Israel, on behalf of Israeli and International law is discriminating in an extraordinary way against Jews and Israelis. This is in contrast to the claims made by post-Zionist organizations that there is discrimination against Arabs. Col. Almoz, head of the Civil Administration, at his appearance before the committee was quoted as saying that even when it seems to him that the disputed land belongs to Jews, legal advisers force him to remove the Jewish residents due to claims made by the Arabs.

The Reports conclusions have opened a small window of hope and the biggest question is how the government will decide to operate. Will they be able to withstand the pressure put upon them by the post -Zionist organizations?

The Levy Committee reminded us all that these areas are not "occupied territories" but are part of the historic land of Israel that were destined to be an integral part of the Jewish state, in accordance with the decision made by the League of Nations which was unanimously approved the San Remo Conference. These areas were occupied illegally by Jordan in the War of Independence who was holding them as an occupier up until the State of Israel released them in 1967.

Those who claim that the State considers these areas as "occupied territory", cannot ignore the fact that the State of Israel has established cities and numerous towns, according to state laws and with the approval of the Supreme Court and in fact, 400,000 citizens reside there lawfully, and most Israeli law applies to them.

In the Supreme Court appeal filed by the Legal Forum for the Land of Israel during the dis-engagement it was decided, amongst other things, that the Basic Law of Human Dignity and Liberty applies to all Israeli citizens, residents of Judea and Samaria as well as any other Israeli citizens.

The government needs to make the required corrections in the law now, both in the Supreme Court and in the Knesset, to deal with the shortcomings which have been revealed in this report. We cannot accept either the significant infringement to human rights or discrimination against Jewish people which now exist in the sphere of planning and building in Judea and Samaria.Nachi Eyal is the Director General of the Legal Forum for the land of Israel.

The Legal Forum has been working diligently this week to promote a letter of support to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu regarding the Levy Report which states that Judea and Samaria are not considered occupied territories under international law and that the state of Israel is not in breach of the Fourth Geneva Convention.

We are attaching the letter of support to the update; please distribute it among Community and Rabbinical leaders, legal professionals and anyone you see fit. The letter should be signed and returned by mail to lg@haforum.org.il

The Forum's activities are carried out by volunteer attorneys, legal and financial experts, who act to protect human rights in Israel. To continue this valuable work, we need your help. Please donate to The Legal Forum so that justice can prevail.
