    The court on Monday ruled that the Ulpana outpost must be dismantled by July 1.

    A May 1 deadline for its removal was postponed so that the court could hear an appeal by the government, which asked for a 90-day delay.

    About 30 Jewish families live in Ulpana. The court has ruled that the outpost was illegally built on private Palestinian land.

    Israel has about 120 authorized settlements in the West Bank. Palestinians consider both the authorized settlements and the rogue outposts to be illegal encroachment on land they claim for a state.

    In case we forget, this reminds us that we are still in Galus. The government of Israel is not a Jewish government, it’s just a government of a country where, it happens, many Jews live. The Jews of the country of Israel are sometimes tolerated more, sometimes less.

    This is becoming a joke and devalues the legitimacy of the court and the system of laws upon which EY must operate. The army should go in immediately and bulldoze these illegal structures or no one will have any reason to rely upon a court order in the future. The politics of “settlements” must be subordinated to the primacy of the rule of law.

    Wonderful to have evil make believe Jews, who are the lovers of Arabs and nazis, running this cursed government. The only good they do is to perpetuate their evil. Yemach Shemom VeZichrom!
