STATE DEPARTMENT OPPOSES JEWS BUYING OWN PROPERTY IN HEBRON

The US State Department once again shows why it's bad:
(IsraelNN.com) The U.S. State Department praised Israel's government for its actions in expelling Jews from their homes Thursday afternoon in the Peace House apartment building in Hevron, saying the residents had illegally occupied the site.

State Department Deputy Spokesman Robert Wood characterized the violent clashes in which dozens of activists were injured by Yassam government forces as "a difficult situation." He added in his briefing Friday morning with reporters in Washington D.C. that the Israeli government was doing what it could to make sure the residents comply with the laws in Israel.

"They were basically arresting people -- removing people from a site that they were occupying illegally," said Wood. A reporter, asking for clarification, repeated the question, "Did you say a site they were occupying legally or illegally?"

Wood repeated, "Illegally."
Well! As we can see here, they're as bad as the British government, by condoning removing people from a legally bought house and then lying about it and concealing the exact details.

  1. Hi Avi,
    I'm not real clear on the settler's situation. Can you provide links or something which makes it clear that this is property they bought legally, and from whom it was purchased?
