The Israeli Authorities handed on Wednesday fifteen Palestinian residents of Aqraba town, near the northern West Bank city of Nablus, military orders to demolish 15 homes, barracks, tin-houses for the sheep, and water wells located in Khirbit Al Taweel, which belong to Aqraba village.
Local sources reported that Israeli soldiers and members of the so-called Civil Administration Office, which is controlled by the Israeli army, invaded the village on Wednesday morning and handed the orders to the residents.

Meanwhile in East Jerusalem: Dr. Mustafa Barghouthi, the Secretary General of the Palestinian National Initiative, expressed outrage at the recent Israeli announcements to demolish 55 more Palestinian homes in and around East Jerusalem.
“They are currently in the process of destroying 90 homes in the neighbourhood of Silwan, a further 28 in Sheik Jarrah, and have announced today plans to destroy 55 homes in the Shufat Refugee Camp”, he said. “It is clear that a low scale campaign of ethnic cleansing is being carried out against the Palestinian residents of Jerusalem in order to change the Holy City’s demographic character. It is a continuation of brutal and racist policies – right in front of visiting American Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other foreign envoys and diplomats.”
Israel is now planning the implementation of 73,300 housing units in the West Bank’s settlements. 5,722 of those planned are in East Jerusalem.

P.S. Zionism [Jewish apartheid] continues to grow apace with its ethnic cleansing in Palestine. And zionist-peace rockstar Norman Finkelstein's new number will be pushing Gandhi on his adoring fans. Of course, there will be no discussion of zionism at his appearances... because that is a "conflictual term." 1 | 2
Finkelstein will continue to perform his old favorites of "Jews have no influence in American foreign policy or the media" and "Calling for the dissolution of Israel [Jewish apartheid] is as preposterous as asking for the dissolution of the United States of America."
