EU Breaching International Law Using Taxpayers Money By Building Palestinian Homes On Israeli Land
breitbart ^ | 6 Feb 2015 | A.B. Sanderson

British tax payers have been funding illegal Palestinian homes on the West Bank despite the area being under Israeli jurisdiction, a dossier of photographs has revealed.

A report by NGOs, international lawyers and MEPs say the 400 homes erected in Area C of the West Bank, break international law; specifically the Oslo Accords to which the EU is a signatory, the Daily Mail reports. British charity Oxfam is at the centre of the scandal, with Israeli officials calling for an investigation into their involvement.

The homes, which cost tens of millions of euro to build and come from a fund which British tax payers are forced to pay into, have no permits. Official EU documentation reveals the building project is also a political project by the Pro-Palestinian European Union and is intended to ‘pave the way for development and more authority of the Palestinian Authority over Area C (The Israeli Area)’.

The homes, known locally as ‘The EU Settlements’ can be found in 17 locations around the West Bank and are easily identified by the EU flag which is proudly flown, along with stickers and signs of the political bloc and other NGOs including Oxfam.

“This is an attempt to unilaterally change the outcome of any future final status agreement in favour of the Palestinians and against Israel,” a spokesman said.

“Surely Europe has enough of its own problems without coming and escalating the Arab-Israeli conflict by condemning Israeli building in Jerusalem and West Bank while actively building illegal Palestinian settlements on the same contested land.

“The big story is not the symbolic Parliamentary votes to recognise a Palestinian State in EU capitals, it is the 100’s of millions of Euros of taxpayers money that is very active at work changing the status on the ground in Area C.”

“British tax payers have been funding illegal Palestinian homes on the West Bank....”

.
American taxpayers have supported and contributed to the survival of many countries that hate the US.

So what’s new?

Just move Parisian Jews and Israelis into the housing and say “Thanks, now about that pool...”

good point, I’d forgotten
about the IslamoNazi invasion of UK

The British ruling elite has sold out UK just like the American ruling elite is selling out USA

I guess the elites think they can all go hide with their filthy lucre (30 pieces of silver each) on some little tropical island resort somewhere.

But rest assured, the IslamoNazis have actually LESS respect for the Western Quisling Sell-Outs as they do for the rest of us “infidel” Christians and Jews ....
that little tropical island resort will have lots of heads up on stakes lining its harbor
