They can only destroy what's above the ground. The roots remain untouched in the ground itself.

G-d bless the settlers.

Things have been getting bad again. You’d think that the Labour Party was back in charge. It seems as if conservative parties everywhere, in England, Western Europe, and Israel, are trying to imitate their socialist opponents.
