CHOMSKY: ...And the reason is that security is simply not the issue. The issue is expanding the move into the Occupied Territories, which has been going on for thirty-five years. And this is another step in that. The only security this is giving is to those [Israeli settlers] who are illegally there, on the other side of the Green Line. They shouldn't be there anyway.

Becky calls it "eminent domain" and thinks that makes it all OK.

Yeah, we'll "eminent domain" your house, 'cuz we don't like your political beliefs (or maybe just those of some of the people you associate with, or maybe just those of some of the people that we associate with you). We'll boot you out of your home and... Oh, wait... we'll boot you out of the whole area! Then we'll laugh and offer your house to some folks whose philosophy and cultural identity is more in line with our own.

By coincidence, there will be a cultural/racial aspect to this simple administrative act, and most of the world will be able to see the odiousness of what we're REALLY doing, but we'll just ignore them and stick to our guns. (Or, actually, the US's guns, but what's the difference?)
