Interesting article...shows how complicated the issue of property rights is in the former Ottoman region, but also the general disregard by groups such as this for the Palestinian families affected.

The judge noted:

Barak-Erez closed her ruling by noting the hardship residents would suffer by being evicted from homes where they had lived for decades and which some had even purchased. She therefore urged the state to compensate anyone evicted.

Though the evictions, assuming the trust indeed owns the land, are legal, she wrote, “Evicting people who have lived on this land for decades – some of them without even knowing that the land belongs to others – creates a human problem. Especially when it’s done without compensation or any other solution. It seems the state would do better to consider providing a solution, in appropriate cases, for those evicted from their homes. Property rights are important, but it’s also important to defend people’s homes.”

​

Ateret Cohanim is itself an interesting group intent on creating a
Jewish majority in East Jerusalem by purchasing property with help from district authorities, evicting the tenants and moving Jewish families in. Sometimes with questionable legality. So the question is...why one or the other? Why not both Jews and Palestinians?

Court allows eviction of 700 Palestinians from East Jerusalem neighborhood

The horror of moving Jewish families into property they own in Judea.
And the sky doesn't fall. And the millions getting paid.
And the Arab estate agents specifically appointed by their people for such cases.

Exactly, why not both Arabs and Jews? Arabs are 20% in Israel, why building Jewish communities among Arab ones is a bad thing, beyond the pretentious spectacles of being forced into the top 20% of the worlds richest people?

The horror of moving Jewish families into property they own in Judea.

And the evicted Palestinians lost their homes in 1948. It would be the right thing for them to get their homes back too.

Why are the settlements only Jewish?

Why do Palestinians get evicted but only Jewish residents move in?

If Jews have a right to to move there then why not Arabs?

Move the Palestinians out and move the Jews in. That has been the plan for a hundred years.

Except Jews were also evicted.

As far as I can tell, the eviction of Jews was a response to Zionist actions.

Which Jews? Hebron in 1929? West Bank in 1948 by Jordan? By other Arab governments around the time of Israel's creation?

All of these were responses to Zionist colonialism.

RE: Palestine Today
⁜→ P F Tinmore, et al,

John Pilger (Soft Serious Artists in Infotainment) is not always right. He is not a reliable source for news worthy material that is not biased. He is a critic of the Austrailian, British and American Foreign Policy on general principle. And while he owes his freedom to criticize the Alliance of the Five-Eyes (FVEY) → to their work and the sweat of others, he is long on expounding perceived faults or mistakes, he's very short on actually defending his nation or freedom throughout the world.

(COMMENT)

Not to sell John Pilger short, he is a professional in his genres, as recognized by his peers. He is the recipient of several major Awards (One World Media Award, International Emmy Awards, Journalist of the Year 1967,'74,'79, and many more).

Palestine is NOT still the issue. The Arab Palestinian critics of Israel, advocates for violence and disruptors of regional peace, which that "Palestine" was still the issue. But it is more the case that the activities of the Hostile Arab Palestinians (HoAP) in the use of violence and confrontation to achieve media attention is really the "Issue."

​

The people and activities of the HoAP and those like John Pilger, are indirect supporters of jihadist, insurgent, Radicalized Islamic Troublemaker, adherents, guerrillas and asymmetric fighter that have a very long history of past criminal behaviors.

The HoAP is a multifaceted and loose confederation of paramilitary personnel, armed civilians, or irregulars, that use tactics including ambushes, indiscriminate rocket fire, arson, kidnapping and murder, sabotage, raids, petty warfare, hit-and-run tactics targeted specifically against innocent civilian, usually in places of public gatherings. The Arab Palestinians maintain such moral values that they openly defend the right for such members of the HoAP like Dalal Al-Mughrabi to attack innocent Jews that have resulted in the intentional machinegunning of 38 Israeli civilians, including the deaths of 13 children. The Arab Palestinians hold Public Ceremonies Commemorating the event and "glorification of terrorism."

Most Respectfully,
R

I'd sell him short, in a heartbeat.

Pilger pilfers the truth.

He has a 25-year record of anti-Israel activism.

Hebron is the site of the oldest Jewish community in the world. Similarly the Jewish communities in Iraq, Yemen, and other Arab states were quite old. Who the hell were they colonizing?

Hebron was one of the first of the Palestinian responses to the Zionist colonial project.

The Jews, who had lived in Arab countries for centuries, were all expelled upon the creation of Israel. Coincidence?
