Religous Bigotry
The Christian Science Monitor - their anti-semitic theme continues:
After Gaza, some other settlers ready to move
A group in the West Bank wants Israel to start compensation now.
By Ilene R. Prusher KARNEI SHOMRON, WEST BANK – In the beginning, it was a small checkpoint. Then it became a well-guarded multilane opening. Soon, it became so jammed that Benny Raz had to wait at least a half-hour to enter Israel proper.
And then, he says, he saw the writing on the wall - and realized he was on the wrong side of it. This settlement, although not far from where internationally recognized Israel ends and the disputed West Bank begins, lies east of Israel's separation barrier, finished here in the past year.
$3 billion pricetag
A middle-aged man of Jewish-Iraqi descent, Raz was recently dismissed from his job as a local bus driver for his prominent role in the founding of One Home, a new movement aimed at expediting an exodus of settlers back inside the Green Line, Israel's pre-1967 borders.
The movement has attracted a few professors, retired generals, and left-wing politicians, including one who plans to introduce a bill next month in the Knesset, Israel's parliament. It would establish a fund for settlers who have good reason to believe that their homes will eventually go the way of the Gaza settlements.
ISRAEL HAS A GOVERNMENT. Perhaps the Christian Sciencen Monitor should discover that FIRST rather than raising elements of trouble all the time. Are you all sure you aren't card carrying members of Hamas? The West Bank citizens can sell their homes whenever they are ready. There will be no complete pull back to 1968 anytime soon if at all !!
