Thievery Is a Standard Part of Jewish-Israeli Culture

Israel effectively annexes Palestinian land near Jordan Valley

State gave Israeli kibbutz 1,500 dunam of Palestinian-owned land over Green Line.

Israel carried out a de facto annexation of Palestinian land northeast of the Jordan Valley and given it to Kibbutz Merav. Merav, part of the Religious Kibbutz Movement, is about seven kilometers northwest of the parcel.

The route of the separation barrier in the area was changed so that the plot in question, about 1,500 dunams (375 acres ), would be on the Israeli side.

......

The issue of the land's legal status and its transfer to Merav is clouded in mystery, and official statements have been contradictory. All efforts to locate documents explaining the situation have failed, Inbar said.

The kibbutz is in the Emek Mayanot Regional Council, whose jurisdiction is entirely within the Green Line. In a statement, council officials said the land is beyond its jurisdiction and that the Israel Lands Administration controls land allocations to the council's member communities.

Ofer Amar, a spokesman for the World Zionist Organization's Jewish settlement division said the tract is classified as farmland within the Emek Mayanot Regional Council. He said the settlement division had no authority over the parcel.

Kibbutz Merav's secretary general, David Yisrael, confirmed the kibbutz has been farming the land for years, growing field crops including corn as well as citrus fruit. He said he had a lease with the ILA for it, but refused to show it to Haaretz.

An official in the Civil Administration said Yisrael refused to show the contract to his agency, too.

......

According to international law Israel is the custodian of absentee property in the West Bank and is prohibited from giving it to settlers, not to mention to communities within Israel.

In an opinion issued in 1997, the Civil Administration's legal adviser said: "The Custodian of Absentee Property in the West Bank is nothing but a trustee looking after the property so it is not harmed while the owners are absent from the area ... the custodian may not make any transaction regarding the asset that conflicts with the obligation to safeguard the asset as stated, especially his obligation to return the asset to the owner upon his return to the region."

The state comptroller wrote in a 2004 report that thousands of dunams of privately-owned Palestinian lands were given to Israeli communities in the Jordan Valley in the 1960s and 1970s, according to ILA and Custodian of Absentee Property documents.

Stereotyping is a typical racist activity.

[Gawd]

Stereotyping is a typical racist activity.

The stereotype fits the Jewish-Israelis to a T. Just like the average American is fat.

[Drewish]

Gawd is claiming that this is the result of a culture, not their genes, so it's hardly racist, whether one takes it be bigoted or not.

[Gawd]

I would also like to add that you can't describe any culture or race without stereotyping. Try it.

Maybe it is genetic. That would explain all the Israeli racism.

If you've not noticed, the Jews have teamed up with the White clan, like in Apartheid South Africa.

Special pleading is a logical fallacy.

Stereotyping is a typical racist activity.

[Gawdzilla Sama]

As "race" is just stereotype itself you can't use Gawd's rationalization as a excuse for being a bigot.
