In response to the murderous terrorist attacks in Jerusalem, the Security Cabinet decided unanimously to authorize nine communities in Judea and Samaria.

These communities have existed for many years; some have existed for decades. Following consultations by the Prime Minister, Defense Minister, Finance Minister, National Security Minister, and Strategic Affairs Minister, it was agreed to authorize the following communities:

1. Avigil

2. Bet Hogla

3. Givat Harel / Haroeh

4. Givat Arnon

5. Mitzpe Yehuda

6. Malachei Hashalom

7. Ashael

8. Sde Boaz

9. Shaharit

The Civil Administration Higher Planning Committee will be convened in the coming days to approve the construction of new residential units in existing communities in Judea and Samaria.

I don't know about the other new communities, but Sde Boaz is already in existence. It's in walking distance of Neveh Daniel in Gush Etzion, other side of the highway from Efrat. Judging from that, I would posit that the others are already there, too, but are now being made "legal," and will no longer be demolished in the middle of the night every time someone in Civil Administration gets wood. Pity that Mitzpeh Avihai next to the Harsina neighborhood of Kiryat Arba is not coming back. They wrecked that over and over until the residents stopped trying. I had friends there.

This decision simply recognizes the reality on the ground. Good move.
