NABLUS (Ma'an) -- The Israeli government issued confiscation orders to Palestinian land owners in Nablus on Monday to seize over 300 dunams (74 acres) of land to expand nearby illegal settlements, an official said.

Ghassan Daghlas, a Palestinian official who monitors settlement activity in the northern West Bank, told Ma'an that the Israeli government issued the seizure orders to landowners in the Ras Mues and al-Khafafish areas near the village of Jalud.

The land is located between the illegal Shilo settlement and outpost of Shvut Rachel and will be used to build a Jewish cemetery, school and farm, Daghlas said.

The land is owned by Tawfiq Abdullah al-Hajj Muhammad and his brother Ahmad.

Israel has begun work on 10,509 housing units in illegal settlements while simultaneously demolishing 146 Palestinian homes since peace talks began in July.

Since 1967, Israel has established over 150 settlements and some 100 outposts in the occupied West Bank, with a settler population of 520,000, according to OCHA.

Palestine will be created.

Lets hope the world does eventually stand up for their rights.

Human rights for only white skinned or if you happen to be a jew.

Agreed, it's a state that discriminates against all non Jews but also against Arab Americans. If you're an American who happens to be an arab you can't visit Israel. So that means you can't visit Jerusalem since the occupiers consider all of that theirs, that's why the US State Department has rejected Israelis who want visas to the US until Israel ends it's occupation.

remember they want peace

And it's done through brutal force, this is ridiculous...

An army the West trains with is confiscating Palestinian land through brute force and placing international Jews in their place. If you try doing anything or standing up for your rights the army is there to arrest you, call you and terrorist and tell you to leave 'their' land. The Israeli policy directly supports illegal occupation and that's an understatement.
