Friday, April 05, 2002 Settlements in Israel After the '73 October War (that is the right year, isn't it?), Jewish settlements began to pop up in the West Bank. I thought this was rather provocative. Palestinians complained that land was seized illegally and cruelly rationalized by israel. I thought they had some basis for a grievance. But last night after watching the news, it occurred to me that - wait a second! Why don't Jews have a right to live in their Holy and Ancestral Land? That's what the Palestinians claim for themselves - a right of return. The land the Jews build on is empty! How they acquired it, I don't know, but they are certainly improving it. If they want to live on land legally acquired, why shouldn't they? posted by Mark Butterworth | 12:05 PM | |
