Here they go again..defying public opinion. Their timing is impeccable...always when eyes of the world are on something else.

now why doesn't that surprise me?

oh yeah..



that's why..

Israel can sure be it's own worst enemy at times....

I get the fact these are in existing settlements and no additional land is being taken outright. It makes the whole thing a tempest in a teapot when it comes down to it. ...the problem is, no one can see these things in isolation or cold without the passion of the overall situation. Bibi knows that...and this can't be much more than an effort to provoke the Palestinians just a little bit more. He's a damn fool and Israel needs to change THEIR regime. The leader they have now isn't simply a strong man for defense. I think his mind went around the bend somewhere back behind us all and it's still twisting somewhere. Downright warped even.
