Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: Demolition

West Bank Dept: JERUSALEM - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is recommending that authorities physically move the buildings of an illegal West Bank outpost slated for demolition in hopes of defusing a political crisis roiling his governing coalition, an official said Tuesday, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Israel's Supreme Court has ordered the five buildings, home to 30 families, demolished by July 1 after determining they were built on private Palestinian land and jewish settler Hagit Sagiv, sits in her home before a demonstration against the proposed decision to evacuate a West Bank outpost in the Ulpana neighborhood in the West Bank settlement of Beit El near the Palestinians city of Ramallah, Monday, June 4, 2012. An Israeli official said on Saturday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to remove a West Bank outpost ahead of a court deadline, and is mulling whether to demolish the buildings or relocate them. The signs in Hebrew call on cabinet ministers to support a law preventing the evacuation.
