Defense Minister Israel Katz and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich described the moves as “normalizing” life for settlers, removing legal barriers, and strengthening Israel’s permanent hold over “Judea and Samaria” - what the extremist right wing in Israel calls the occupied West Bank. 📌 The changes include: ▪️ Repeal of Jordanian-era laws barring the sale of land to Jews, allowing purchases under the same rules used inside Israel ▪️ Declassification and publication of West Bank land registries, facilitating Jewish purchases of Palestinian land ▪️ Elimination of transaction permits and licensing requirements previously imposed by the Civil Administration ▪️ Revival of a long-dormant state land acquisition committee to enable proactive government purchases for settlement expansion ▪️ Expansion of Israeli enforcement and oversight into Areas A and B for water, environmental, and archaeological violations ▪️ Transfer of planning and construction authority in the illegal Jewish settlement in Hebron, including holy sites, directly to the Civil Administration
▪️ Approval of a dedicated municipal authority to manage Rachel’s Tomb, located within Bethlehem’s municipal boundaries

What do we do when political actors can create their own history and manufacture the “documents” to back it up? No matter how "authentic" looking the AI-fakes, we will have ways to verify facts. That's the good news. #AI #disinfo thebulletin.org/premium/2025...

The ‚Paris Noir‘ exhibition, currently at the Centre Pompidou, displays some of his best photos. Highly recommended!
“It is vital that parliamentarians are able to witness first-hand the situation in the occupied Palestinian territory.”
