They have announced plans to let "settlers" have at land near Jeruselem. They say god gave them this holy land but they don't respect the land or its history nor its indigenous people. Its such an old story of foreigners destroying what they can't appreciate. [/quote] Fucking Nazis. This thread is pure shit. :out: [/quote] :cruise: [/quote]

Israel withholds $120mn in Palestinian tax funds as revenge for UN vote
Israel has canceled the transfer of US$120 million collected in taxes on behalf of the Palestinian Authority in response to Palestine’s UN-bid, which saw it granted non-member observer status, thus implicitly recognizing the state.
The halted money, collected in taxes for the month of November, was scheduled to be passed on to the Palestinian Authority (PA), which constitutes a large percentage of the Palestinian budget, including paying the salaries of PA officials, Israeli media reported.
Now, instead, the money will be used to pay for the PA’s debt to Israel’s Electric Company.
