"The text of the two orders stated that they were issued by Yossi Segal…, to approve a temporary decision on government lands for the purpose of grazing.

Recently, #Israeli settlers have seized large areas of land in the #WestBank under the pretext of grazing their livestock. To impose de facto control, they release cows and sheep into the plains and mountains, control them, and prevent #Palestinians from reaching them.

Pastoral settlement constitutes one of the most serious challenges to Palestinians looking to preserve their land."

      Just in time for Trump tower and Kushner’s resort timeshares. I guess that’s better than the Kamala building no one was gonna build.

    This is not intended to minimize the fact that Israel is stealing Palastinian land. It is wrong for them to do so, wrong for them to run an apartheid regime,and very o viously wrong for them to commit genocide. This is just intended to give perspective to the size of the land they’re illegally taking this time.

    1000 hectares is about 0.17% of the west bank.
