[bz] | | | Why Nahum Barnea is not for evacuating Amona Nahum Barnea - Ynet - From an ethical perspective, whoever petitions the High Court over outposts built on private land is helping legitimize settlements in the rest of the area; from a practical perspective, the greater the protest in the settlement sector, the larger the compensation that will be paid for evacuation by consent.

| | | A Jewish and democratic state – how to live with the oppression of the minority and still feel good Shmuel Amir - the only way to turn Israel into a democratic state that cannot be undermined is simple: expel all the Palestinians from here. Then there will be no one left to discriminate against, to marginalize and from whom to deny rights generally. We will remain here by ourselves to be as democratic as we want with ourselves. Surely it should be clear that as long as there are Arabs among us we will be unable to be a democratic state, even if we want to be. Our entire past proves that. gm | | | Detainee Jawareesh Starts Hunger Strike Demanding Ending Violations, Constant Transfers IMEMC -
