Rubbish. I saw a house in Palestine demolished for no good reason. The owner was a disabled man, and the house was built out of a collection passed around by locals for the old man. The Israeli soldiers assaulted the old man as he tried to defend his house. It was reduced to rubble.
I knew another man whose house was under threat of demolition and was paying half his salary to try to prevent it, but they might do it anyway. He has four children.
The reason? They have no permits. They don't even bother coming up with excuses anymore.
When will people open their eyes?
