A Brazen Blogger - But Shouldn't That Be "Teat"?

In a story describing why hundreds of Arab dairy and meat producers demonstrated in the city of Ramallah, demanding that Israel cancel an order banning the sale of their products in East Jerusalem markets, a Los Angeles blogger, Maher Abukhater, published this:-

WEST BANK: A tit for tat or just a new policy?

Details:-

The producers demanded that the Palestinian Authority respond by banning Israeli dairy and meat products from the Palestinian areas...

...as of July 1, even the Arab markets of East Jerusalem have been closed to Palestinian products, increasing fears of further isolation of the Arab section of the city and its more than 300,000 Palestinian residents from their West Bank surroundings...

Now comes the fudging about:-

Although there was no explanation for the new Israeli ban on Palestinian products in East Jerusalem, Palestinians believe the decision came in light of the Palestinian drive to boycott products made in Israeli settlements that are mushrooming all over the West Bank and the ban on Palestinian workers from working in these settlements. The Palestinian Authority hopes that by the end of this year it would have "cleaned" the Palestinian markets of products made in the settlements.

Anything about health certification of hygienic quality control?

Any agricultural produce, including eggs as my neighbor knows, requires special permission, even from Jews because this area is not known for its quality in that regard.
