Water, Water, Everywhere...

On Wednesday morning, the Israelis did take one small step, but that effort fell short. The Israelis sent a small force to an illegal hilltop settlement outpost in the northern West Bank. The site, Esh Kodesh, falls into the category of outposts that Israel has pledged to dismantle.

The forces disconnected a pipe bringing water from the settlement’s tower, then left. An hour later, the settlers had reconnected the pipe, witnesses said.
