Israel 'plans settlement growth'

news.bbc.co.uk...

The Israeli government has plans to build at least 73,000 new homes for Jews in the occupied West Bank, the anti-settlement group Peace Now says.

If the plans are implemented in full it would double the number of settlers in the West Bank outside east Jerusalem, according to the Peace Now website.

Israeli officials said the plans referred to potential construction and only a small number had been approved.

Continued settlement work is seen as a major barrier to Palestinian statehood.

Correspondents say the information indicates Israel's next coalition government, currently in the process of being formed by Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu, has a wide choice of projects for settlement expansion.

It's no surprise really.

The term "Jew" is often used to refer to someone who is greedy. It's obvious why, and also very fitting.

60 years of this, and it continues while the world turns a blind eye and allows it to happen. It makes me so mad.
