Ateret Cohanim, an organization that settles Jews in Arab areas of east Jerusalem, said it facilitated the purchase of the two buildings from their Arab owners. Spokesman Daniel Lurie said the buildings contain nine apartment units and that Jewish families and religious studies students would soon move into the properties, immediately doubling the Jewish presence in that section of Silwan.

They aren’t “Arab neighborhoods”.

Only the Joos make world news when they move into nine houses in their own capital city. Every day of the week, more people move in washDC and in London and in Paris , but there’s no big news articles about any of those people moving their families from one house to another. Sicko.

real estate must be very interesting in the O. T.

I recall that land titles in Calif often derive from grants by the Kings of Spain, but it doesn’t seem so clear where land title comes from in the Territories. The Ottomans? Do they even have “title” to land in the way we understand it?

I am reading Martin Gilbert's "Israel: A History" right now. Some days I cannot tell if I am still reading my book or reading the news ... incredibly depressing. Selling land to Jews in what might be the eventual "Palestinian State" is, by "Palestinian Law," punishable by death.

Muslim theology holds that any land where a Muslim once took a dump is forever Muslim territory. They still regard Spain as occupied Muslim land.

During the era of desegregation, Boston was roundly chastised for having ethnic “Neighborhoods”. The fact that Roxbury was a “Black Neighborhood” and South Boston was a “White Neighborhood” was considered to be evil. Children were forcibly bussed to schools that were in the opposite neighborhoods, causing great concern among parents. There were demonstrations and violence, and the whole world used the term “Southie’ as a synonym for “Racism”.

Now, the world attaches the same epithets to Jews who want to move into “Arab Neighborhoods”, and thus make it a more integrated, ethnically and religiously mixed area. This is “Celebrating Diversity”, fer cryin’ out loud!

“They aren’t “Arab neighborhoods”.”

Correct. The muslims killed/expelled the LONG time (like 2,000 years) Jewish families from this neighborhood in a pogrom in 1929.

I guess the MSM considers France part of Germany, too, by right of conquest.

Logical consistency is not a virtue among the Left.

Oh Yes! Absolutely.

Their total detestation of Sarah Palin is a perfect example of that.

Irony noted, but there are places where remodeling is forbidden, as well.
