[quote]Israeli settlers from the illegal settlement of Netafim leveled private Palestinian land near the central West Bank village of Qarawat Bani Hassan under guard of Israeli soldiers, witnesses told Ma'an Sunday. The settlers intend to expand their settlement, which was founded in 1986[/quote] [url]http://www.maannews.net/eng/ViewDetails.aspx?ID=738669[/url] The Jewish settlers need their living space.
Gotta have that Lebensraum
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;46447121]That's nice investigative journalism from a source that is already anti-Israel[/QUOTE] Yeah we all know that Jewish settlers/IDF don't have a habit of stealing shit.

[QUOTE=Svinnik;46447597]If you're able to post from Ma'an, why was I banned for posting from Arutz Sheva? Both sources are equally biased.[/QUOTE] Arutz Sheva is based in an illegal settlement and it literally calls itself the voice of the Israeli settler movement.

[QUOTE=Lamar;46447732]People who are in direct contravention of international law don't make a reputable source. Mann news isn't based in an illegal settlement.[/QUOTE] I mean, they published this article with no source other than an anonymous tip. That's not enough for a news article.
[QUOTE=Svinnik;46447750]I mean, they published this article with no source other than an anonymous tip. That's not enough for a news article.[/QUOTE] Sometimes eyewitness accounts are the only means of obtaining information when you're based somewhere thats under military occupation and there's a restriction of free press. I'm guessing you'd rather prefer to have settlers and Israeli soldiers act without having such behavior reported?
Lamar again
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;46447790]How isn't there free press in the West Bank (and Israel) if they work and operate publishing articles on the same place you claim to have press restriction?[/QUOTE] A restriction on free press doesn't mean people won't publish articles there. It will make it more difficult for Palestinians to actually report and follow up on news though. They're not going to be able to send reporters with cameras to document and record this for instance, they'll just get turned around before they even get there.
