And the connection of these illegal 'new building sites' to the Israeli government is where again? If there's evidence to suggest that the government authorized this, then present it, rather than this post hoc allegation that there is a connection to these 'new building sites' as presented...

Do you understand now?

Israel is planning on retroactively authorizing illegal settlements.

No, just to killing the peace process, and keeping the American's happy for a few more years by portraying the Arabs as the recalcitrants, giving them a chance to tighten the screws on the occupation and get in a few more wars with Hamas and Hezbollah before the next president and the next "peace" charade.

Believe me, I was just as surprised to find out the same about you.

Only, my response was intended as satire about unsourced conspiracies. Somehow, I doubt the post I replied to was intended as satire.

Certainly, you have evidence to back up your bold claim that Israel intends to retroactively legalize illegal settlement activity.

of course, I do. why else would I make such a claim?

unlike right-wing Zionists, I do not make such accusations without knowing I can prove it.

It completely avoided Thunder's point by just making an absurd statement.

Quote:
The hilltop on which the illegal outpost Givat Hayovel sits will be a busy place in the coming days, and not because you can see the Jordan Valley from there. Its height is expected to be the next excuse for legitimizing an illegal act carried out there. The Israel Defense Forces will tell the High Court of Justice that the hill is a "commanding height" where the IDF's presence is essential. So it's important to set up a community there.
This is a kind of magic act - the IDF has discovered that it needs these sites just when it has to raze the homes of two officers killed in battle - majors Eliraz Peretz and Ro'i Klein. There is no better combination than "commanding heights" and bereavement to legitimize a crime. Not only did the chief of staff promise to do everything to gain the necessary authorization to prevent the razing of the homes, but even Peace Now, in a humanitarian gesture, withdrew its petition on demolishing the officers' homes.

There's an ongoing, real-time one in another thread at this very moment.

Even the hapless one that's the OP of this thread is a 2nd example.

I don't expect this to be the last one either.

I am not the only one to ask you for evidence for your claim. But I will remind everyone at JREF, how you respond to requests for evidence and sources for your claims.

And I will NOT respond to any request from you, for evidence or sources, until you finally address the request made to you.

folks who are not forced out by a deportation or exile decree, leave on their own accord. just as my ancestors fled the bigotry and violence in Imperial Russia in 1984, on their own accord. they were not forced out or ordered to leave Russia.

just like many of the Jews of the Middle East. they were not ordered to leave. they CHOSE to leave.

it is a LIE to sat that all the Jews from the Middle East were deported or exiled.

And yet, you still haven't found a link that supports this 'on their own accord' in reference to Jews in the NA and ME regions. The 1980's Soviet strawman doesn't support 'on their own accord' either.

Try again.

Just out of curiosity though, do you think there were no Arabs residing in 1948 Israel and the territories that left 'on their own accord'?

more BS games from you, I see.

It is estimated that 800,000 to 1,000,000 Jews were forced from their homes or fled the Arab countries from 1948 until the early 1970s; 260,000 reached Israel between 1948–1951, and 600,000 by 1972.[2][3][4] The Jews of Egypt and Libya were expelled while those of Iraq, Yemen, Syria, Lebanon and North Africa left as a result of physical and political insecurity.

In Syria, Morocco (and others, I suppose) there were actually laws preventing Jews from leaving. Jews left even while the laws were in place and the international community encouraged the lifting of such laws, which were clearly oppressive.

Maybe bigjel conciders escaping to be the same as being expelled.

Not discussing whether there were laws preventing expulsion of Jews but the baseless argument Parky put forth that stated that Jews left 'on their own accord'. Quite a difference.

Unlike a good deal of the Arabs that fled Israel proper which fled during wartime between the Israel and the Arab league nations in '48 and the disinformation ploy citing rampant massacres, rape and so forth of the Haganah against Arabs, Jews from Arab countries fled due to fear and persecution from violence/rioting, land appropriations, having their citizenship revoked, property (which was officially owned) taken, and/or bank accounts appropriated by the Arab countries.

An example of this was the statements by Heykal Pasha, which can be read here in part:

Why Jews Fled the Arab Countries

Make note that a portion of the expulsions and/or fleeing of Jews in Arab countries occurred prior to the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948.

All this refutes the dimwitted argument of Parky of 'on their own accord'. Laws in a few Arabs countries that prevented Jews from escaping doesn't support this argument either in addition to it actually being a quite laughable defense.

no expulsion order? then you are not expelled.

just like my ancestors, who left Russia under threat and severe duress. but they were not expelled.

stop playing dumb.
Your thickness precedes you again. Now its a defense of whether there was an expulsion order or not. If there wasn't one, then Jews left 'on their own accord'.

Stellar logic.
