'Palestinians' to be banned from working in 'settlements'
'Palestinians' are to be banned from employment in 'settlements' in Judea and Samaria. The reason you haven't heard a massive outcry about this, complete with UN condemnations, is that Israel is not the one doing the banning. It's the 'Palestinian Authority' that is banning 'Palestinians' from working for the 'settlements.' The Palestinian Authority will move to prevent Palestinian workers from taking jobs in Israeli settlements in the West Bank, the Palestinian economics minister said Sunday.As we heard often in recent months, many 'Palestinians' just want to be able to support their families like everyone else in the World. If the Abbas/Fayyad government is going to stop the 'Palestinians' from supporting their families, it just may be the straw that breaks the camel's back and leads to the 'Palestinians' throwing their disgraceful 'leadership' out.
Palestinians vehemently oppose the settlements Israel has built on land they want for a future state, but an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 Palestinians work in the settlements. Palestinian construction workers have been key to building homes for settlers, while others work in factories in settlements. Many say the West Bank's poor economy leaves them no choice.
The law, set to be signed by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas by the end of the month, would constitute the most determined Palestinian campaign yet against the settlement economy.
Economics Minister Hassan Abu Libdeh, who drafted the law, said it is important for the Palestinians to be consistent in their opposition. "My population, my society, is contributing to the lifeline of the settlements, so I am targeting this contribution," he said.
The Palestinian Authority will try to find alternatives for those currently working in settlements, but they will not be forced to leave, Abu Libdeh said. Palestinians working in settlements in the future would be breaking the law, he said, but he would not discuss penalties.
And not a moment too soon.

Excellent.
The less money flows to Arabs, the more incentive they have to leave.
Abu Mazen is a Kahanist. Who knew?
I'd rather see Jews building there anyway, not the Arabs. Lets stick with the original principles of Zionism.
