Israel Approves More Settlements Near Jerusalem
By Reuters
Published October 18, 2012.
Jerusalem — Israel on Thursday issued a detailed plan for the building of some 800 new homes on annexed land in the West Bank that is certain to attract further international condemnation of its settlement policies.
Really:
Well,
(a) those are houses being built, not "settlements";
(b) if you insist on the term "settlement", it's still but one "settlement" as even Ma'an notes;
(c) but it isn't a "settlement", it's a neighborhood;
(d) why isn't The Forward borrowing from Haaretz or the Jerusalem Post but from Reuters, a biased news agency? and background could have helped.
(e) and an independent voice (from the same Reuters correspondent) a year ago.
