>70a11.jpg70ad1.jpg > >As always, the ultimate measure of Israel's interest in peace, is its >action in colonizing the 1967-occupied territories, in grave violation of >the 4th Geneva conventions. During Oslo "peace" talks, Israel >aggressively increased its colonization of the west bank, instead of >dismantling its illegal settlements -- which underlie Palestinian rage >today. Settlements continue as we speak, with 34 new ones started under >Sharon's term. Every Israeli prime minister outdoes the one before him, >"hawk" or "dove" alike -- although our leaders and media prefer the Labor >"dovish" style, of doing things behind the screen. The chart to the right >shows the number of settlers increase in the west bank ONLY, excluding the >area Israel calls East Jerusalem, which is a large chunk extending into >the west bank, almost cutting it in half, containing an additional 200,000 >settlers, for a total of 430 for 1967-occupied palestinian land (excluding >17,000 on the Syrian-occupied Golan Heights).
