Israeli government to provide services to new settlements
Israel's defense ministry has announced that it will provide services to 8 new illegal settlements in the West Bank. The move gives these new little colonies state recognition. It is also a violation of the US's now-dead-and-waiting-to-be-buried "road map".
Keep in mind that these are settlements that the State of Israel itself supposedly regards as "illegal". "Illegal" Arab construction in Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank always gets demolished. But there are no bulldozers for these new settlements.
I wonder why that is?
