Israel is planning to demolish 'illegal' solar panels that are the only source of electricity for Palestinians in West Bank villages
Two large solar panels jut out of the barren landscape near Imneizil in the Hebron hills. The hi-tech structures sit incongruously alongside the tents and rough stone buildings of the Palestinian village, but they are fundamental to life here: they provide electricity.
Imneizil is not connected to the national electricity grid. Nor are the vast majority of Palestinian communities in Area C, the 62% of the West Bank controlled by Israel. The solar energy has replaced expensive and clunky oil-powered generators.
According to the Israeli authorities, these solar panels – along with six others in nearby villages – are illegal and have been slated for demolition.

Of course they should lose them. Because these panels obviously used to power the generators that are needed to build rockets under their beds at home. It being summertime the kids have moved their rocket making to their homes instead of building them under their desks at school.
It is really no surprise what the scumbags running Israel will do next.
In this way began the immense oppression of the Palestinian people, who were not at all involved in the Holocaust. Not only is this group of people being oppressed more than the apartheid ideologues could ever dream about in South Africa, their very identity and history are being denied and obfuscated. What is worse, is that Europe and the USA are refusing to take responsibility for their actions with regard to both the Holocaust and the over-empowering of the Israelis, their disregard for the international conventions and regulatory framework of the nuclear industry and their continued oppression of the Palestinian people.sites.google.com...
Among the world's most respected figures is South Africa's Bishop Desmond. His recognizable face—with its ever present grin—has become a symbol of reconciliation and goodness. But it masks a long history of ugly hatred toward the Jewish people, the Jewish religion and the Jewish state.

It is just down right nasty. The Israelis are worse than the apartheid South African regime.

Other pro-Israeli groups now classify Archbishop Tutu an antisemite. It is apparently forbidden to criticize Israeli crimes.
