Where It's Better To Work

This is a very interesting economic development:

Just one percent more Palestinians worked in settlements in 2010 than the year before, making almost double the wage of their peers in the public and service sectors, the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics said in a new report released Wednesday.

PCBS research showed that...14.2 percent in illegal West Bank settlements -- up from 13.9 percent in 2009 -- and...Average daily wages for settlement workers were 150 shekels ($44) per day, compared to 76.9 ($22) in the West Bank and 46.2 ($13.50) in Gaza, the latest research showed.

The figures for settlement workers are likely to concern leaders of the Palestinian Authority, who have said they will outlaw all work in Israeli factories across the Green Line by 2012.

If the "outlawing" goes into effect, much financial hardship will be caused in addition to the fact that the "occupation" seems to be very beneficial even for the "occupied" Arabs.

The Palestinians will get more value from getting their land back.

Next year in Jerusalem
The year after in Brooklyn

You are the one who will be leaving your home at IDF gunpoint. Not me. Israel is going to betray you.

"You are the one who will be leaving your home at IDF gunpoint. Not me. Israel is going to betray you."

Not if the land-faithful Israeli Jewish Right succeeds in taking over the IDF first. Or even better, manages to solidify an unbreakable, Leftist-proof government coalition.

Next year in Jerusalem for the Jews;
Next year in hell for the anti-Zionists and other Jew-haters.

YESHA isn't sovereign Israeli territory. It's Arab.
If you want to keep YESHA you have to give the Arabs the vote. Which do you want? The Korban Pesach or the Jewish state ?

And you'll never win a population battle with the Palestinians. Israeli Jews are too prosperous.

HaShem hates apartheid. See how he destroyed it in South Africa. He did the same with Jim Crfow in the US. And now he is coming for you.
