Police and Israel Defense Forces troops on Wednesday demolished an illegal outpost near the northern West Bank settlement of Kochav Hashachar.

At the site, Maoz Esther, security forces dismantled a synagogue which had been constructed there without permit.

It was built in memory of Yonadav Chaim Hirschfeld, who was killed in the terror attack at the Mercaz Harav Yeshiva in Jerusalem in March.

The synagogue, which was not a permanent structure, was dedicated during the intermediate days of the Passover holiday.

On Tuesday, police and the Civil Administration demolished a swimming pool which had been built without permit at a home in the Havat Yair outpost, near the northern West Bank settlement of Nofim.

Head of the Samaria Regional Council Gershon Mesika lambasted the demolition.

Judenrat government.

Chillingly accurate moniker. Would that the government of Israel and its military were so efficient in demolishing terrorist outposts. Yes, they earn deserved praise for the terrorist vermin they eliminate. But they are not finishing the job with the same ruthless efficiency that they apply to “illegal outposts” of their own brave people.
