For a society that emphasizes 'law' and rectitude. Israel shud answer a few questions: By
what right does it sieze-n-sell land? Who gives
it the right to steal deeded property, then run
off the former owners? Why does its weak, evil
'government' try to prevent its victims from declaring their own independence [before the rest of the world] and end the 'wait and trust us' endless delay in settling this conflict?..Reminds
me of the Reich's push to the east--lotsa land for the thieves--the only differences are the
uniforms and language...Aaron Allen...
Coupla afterthots: 1. Who pays for 'dismantling'
of 'Migrane'--Israel? Israeli taxpayers? Palestine? The original landowners?..2.Will the
Israel government leave several acres of concrete
rubble and 'rebar'? Will 'Migrane' become just
another worthless site of devastation?..Aaron Allen...
