The Minister of Settlements Affairs in the Israeli government, Tzachi Hanegbi, announced that the Israeli government will advance a proposal to legalize dozens of wildcat outposts in the West Bank, many of which are built on private Palestinian land. Hanegbi said that Hanegbi said that he received the prime minister’s approval to discuss the matter with the Minister of Civil and Social Affairs in the Defense Ministry Michael Biton from the Blue and White party. “I’m pleased to announce for the first time that we agreed that together we will formulate a draft resolution for the government to promote all legal moves at our disposal to “legalize West Bank outposts”, Hanegbi said. He added, “I’m convinced that the government will weigh the issue seriously. After 20 long years during which the brave pioneers acted on behalf of us all, the time has come for us to act on their behalf as well,” he said of Israeli settlers, who built their West Bank homes illegally without the necessary permits.” To check the news, click here
