Settlement museum bill might signal annexation plan

[Scurrilous]

Knesset will hear proposed law that would place West Bank settlement museums under Israeli law, intended as first step in annexation.

<snip>

"The Knesset will soon hold its first reading of a bill that would place West Bank settlement museums under Israeli law, but the legislation seeks much more than that.

On the surface of it, the bill is about museum funding and allows those institutions to apply for government money on an equal footing with museums within the pre-Six Day War armistice line.

But the bill’s author, MK Uri Ariel (National Union), has been blunt about his plan to annex Judea and Samaria through a de facto legislative process, by which each Israeli law would be amended to apply to West Bank settlements. At present, they are under military law."

1. If that is the direction that Israel intends to take then

will eviction of the remaining Palestinians be the next step?

2. Some of the comments are a real hoot.

1) NOT only should annex JUDEA and SAMARIA
but ISRAEL SHOULD go back and reclaim GAZA !

2) na Gaza is a rat hole , best, bus west bank Arabs to Gaza

3) Good idea.Let them all enjoy their freedom in their "strip by the sea". Give them their "freedom" and cease supplying any utilities, cash, or whatever.
Since they are so righteous I am sure they will prosper! After all, how many carnations does the world really want/need?

4) Annexation on its own isn't really any use, as we'll have the phoney Pals demanding 'citizenship' so that they can destroy Israel from within.

5) Annexation has to go hand-in-hand with expulsion of the cancerous vermin who occupy Judea & Samaria.

6) IT IS NOT ISRAEL THAT IS OCCUPING , IT IS the arabs
abbas and his p a .
ALL OF ISRAEL BELONGS TO THE JEWS .
P E R I O D . !



These guys are all really classy. One could come to a conclusion that these guys have as much hatred for the Palestinians as the Europeans had for them pre WWII. Oy how history repeats itself.

3. Settlement museums bill passes 1st reading

Legislation would place museums in settlements under Israeli law, explicitly designed to begin slow annexation of the West Bank.

<snip>

"The Knesset on Monday night approved the first reading of a bill that places settlement museums under Israeli law.

Its creator, National Union MK Uri Ariel, has explained bluntly that the bill was designed to start a slow, piecemeal legislative process that would eventually annex Judea and Samaria by amending each of the country’s laws to extend to the territory.

“It’s an additional step, and an important one to strengthen our hold on the Land of Israel and to stop the discrimination against the residents of Judea and Samaria,” he said after the bill passed by a 19-3 vote. “Culture belongs to everyone, and all Israeli citizens have a right to equal funding.”

If the bill passes its second and third readings, it would allow museums access to the same funding that such institutions outside the West Bank receive."
