authorities consider regular settlements legal but not the dozens of so-called outposts by settlers claim land simply by installing pool cabins. their hope is for these to be the basis for new settlements. many of them said i how you doing just fine. and i ask you a question sure why you're living out here. it's one of the. true reasons 1st zionism. surely you and the 2nd is to keep an eye on this area and also to save money if you know the land here doesn't cost anything but primarily it's about zionism too isn't it dangerous. how much you know anything can happen. but it's all in god's hands.
9:45 pm
and the traditional. is there's a settlement not just on the days i'll go visit so i don't know but it soon will be we're occupying the land just as naturally as a frenchman would for his fields. as you quote but i don't see a palestinian flag ever flying here. is a symbol it's the capital of judea and a symbol for everyone from today and some are you. this is not about a handful of settlers or pilgrims as you were talking about half a 1000000 people. nobody is just going to throw us out of today are. not anymore. due to. but the settlements a not without the critics in. the country's supreme court recently declared the
