Yesha Council Head Tells Hebron Settlers to ‘Cast Out’ Protesters
Excerpts;
“Yesha Settlement Council Chairman Bentzi Lieberman urged the settlers of Hebron to ‘cast out’ the young protesters who have taken up their cause.”
“Lieberman condemned the young Jewish protesters who have clashed with Israeli security forces and torched Palestinian homes in recent days, saying that their ‘acts of vandalism’ alienated the Israeli public and overshadowed legitimate claims of settlers to property in the West Bank city.”
“The protests erupted after the High Court ordered the eviction of eight families who have occupied storefront homes in Hebron’s wholesale market area for the last five years.”
AG vs. Hevron, Yesha Council vs. Protestors
Excerpts;
Excerpt;
“The IDF and Police have been joined by the Yesha Council in their efforts to rid Hevron of the activists that have come to protect the Shalhevet neighborhood from destruction.”
“Yesha Council chairman Bentzy Lieberman sharply attacked the young protestors who have converged in Hevron, telling Army Radio Tuesday morning that residents of Hevron must ‘vomit out the youths, who are undermining and ruining the chances of the people of Israel hearing the very justified arguments for a Jewish presence in the Shalhevet neighborhood.‘”
“Last week, just hours after a home in Sde Boaz, north of the Gush Etzion town of Neve Daniel, was demolished, senior Yesha Council member Shaul Goldstein told Channel Two TV that he was extremely upset that a beeper message had gone out calling upon youth to oppose the destruction at Sde Boaz. ‘Somebody sent out erroneous beeper messages saying the entire outpost was being destroyed and it led to all the young people coming there,’ he said. ‘We made an agreement that the house would be dismantled and the residents violated that deal – I was against the construction in the first place.’ Residents say that no such agreement existed. Land of Israel activists say that the Yesha Council is frustrated that an alternative activist network has sprung up that is not in their control.”
Commentary;
First Yesha Council, pretending to take the lead in fighting the Expulsion from Gush Katif, seems to have actually conspired with the Regime to entrap and fatigue those who opposed the expulsion. Now the conspiracy, as conveyed as clear as day through both of these articles, seems obvious. MB
