@TamarSternthal Under headline "In thrice-demolished village, a Mideast battle of wills," @AP reported that after its initial demolition in November, the Jordan Valley Bedouin encampment was demolished again on Feb. 2 and a third time Feb. 4.
What other village in the world is demolished one day, magically rises phoenix-like from the wreckage the next, and is demolished again the following day?
Where else does demolition of 15 makeshift structures (acc to authorities, 7 tents & 8 goat pens) take on mythical proportions, amounting to destruction of entire village, morphing into destruction of villages (plural), & finally culminating in "burning" of multiple villages?
Where else but #Israel does the evacuation of civilian squatters from a military firing zone amount to a "war crime under international law?"
