Tony Blair Visits An Arab Settlement

Tony Blair visited an Arab settlement in Judea:

Quartet Envoy Tony Blair during a visit to a West Bank village on Thursday [said] “The reason for coming here today is to draw attention to the fact that without a new and different system applying in Area C, it is very hard for Palestinians to enjoy a standard of living so that they can enjoy and develop their land as they should be able to develop it,” said Blair during a visit to the village of At-Tuwani, in the hills south of the city of Hebron
.

I await his visit to Shiloh.

Blair wouldn't behave differently, would he? Would he discriminate and ignore revenant Jews?

Draw "the full picture"

Simple: there are also Jews in those "territories". They lived in Nablus and Gaza and Hebron for centuries until the 1929 riots but were ethnically cleansed from those cities. In Hebron they came back but after 1936 had to leave again. In the environs of Jerusalem - Neveh Yaakov and Atarot - they were cleansed in 1948 as too the Old City.

This is not Biblical history but modern history.

And for over forty years, Jews have again been residing in those areas.
