The New York Times says Islamists want to take part in the new Egyptian government, and how scary that is. Well, is anyone paying attention to Israel's new plans for a "segregated" Jewish development in northern Israel, in an area home to many Palestinians? This is actual Judaization, taking place before our eyes. From Palestine Monitor: "The small village of Harish has become a hot spot of contentious debate since plans were unveiled to build an ultra-Orthodox only city in the predominantly Palestinian region. Harish is a village in the Wadi Ara, a region in northern Israel that falls in the Haifa District and 'The Triangle' in Israel. Wadi Ara is home to roughly 120,000 Palestinians and 10,000 Jews." From Ynet: Minister plans segregated housing: "The conference was held in Jerusalem under the banner 'Segregated Country.'"

Has the settler movement sacrificed Gaza in favor of annexing the West Bank? / Eyal Clyne
A. Is the annexation of the West Bank imminent? “Yesha Council” and “My Israel” have recently circulated a propaganda video clip as part of a campaign addressing the old Israeli-left argument, that “if a two-state solution is not established soon, Israel will lose its Jewish demographic superiority“. In the clip they demonstrate how by deducting the estimated Gaza Strip population from their demographic calculations, the Jewish majority can remain safe and sound between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, even if Israel were to annex the West Bank. This campaign may indicate a new direction for the Israeli right-wing given the way Israeli right-wing commentators,researchers, mathematicians, journalists, bloggers, activists, political groups and prominent public figures have quickly adopted and rejoiced over this new trophy.
