Quote of the Day (qotd)

The American govt requested that Israel stop all construction completely. We made it clear that we will build 2500 units whose construction has already begun.
We will energize the political peace process, while at the same time concerning ourselves with allowing normal continuation of life for the residents of Judea and Samaria.... Jerusalem is not a settlement, and construction there will continue unabated...
The minimizing of construction in Judea and Samaria is only a temporary delay for a limited time period. As of now there is still no agreement with the Americans for how long the freeze will continue.

----- PM Bibi Netanyahu

I hope he is not fooling himself, or worse, us..

  1. This is just SO dumb, I am amazed and deeply saddened.
    Anybody with eyes in his head can see that this will morph into a permanent freeze.
    A concession, once made, can never be rescinded. Have we ever, in the history of Israel, rolled back a previous concession? How are they ever going to start building in Yesha again? The instant any putative construction were to be contemplated, we would find ourselves at the receiving end of a tirade of international outrage, condemnations in the UN (yawn), and more calls for BSD - because Israel is taking the provocative step of building in the settlements. Bibi doesn't have the guts to do that.

    So, my dear friends, I am very much afraid that these 2,500 units are the last ("legal") ones that will be built for Jews in Yesha until Moshiach comes. :(
