Israel’s corrupt, racist government has given settlers a green light to seize vast areas in the northern West Bank - the region between Jenin and Nablus, where four small settlements once stood until 2005. Thread. 1/ In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Israel established four settlements in the area between Jenin and Nablus: Homesh, Sa-Nur, Ganim, and Kadim. These were framed at the time as so-called “quality of life settlements.” >>

Our next posts will focus on what is happening there.🧵 1/ In recent months, the Apartheid General, Avi Bluth, has signed dozens of new military seizure orders.
