Settler Takover In

Settler Takeover In Hebron

(recovered article)

Illegal settlers in the Occupied Palestinian Territory city of Hebron have taken over a house(1).

This has allegedly caused a 'rift' in the Kadima-led coalition government in Israel.

Of course, there would be no story if Israel simply complied with its obligation to withdraw back to its borders. They don't literally need to negotiate over any of the permanent status issues in the two-state settlement except the number of Pal. refugees wanting to return. But that means abandoning external ambitions.
