Id you so a search here on GFY, you will see my position on this has always been the same. While I have no great love for the Palestinians, what Israel is doing here is just wrong. This is an illegal land grab.
I fail to understand why Israel is so important to the US. Can't be economically or militarily. so what's the big attraction?

Other than billionaires paying to get Israel protected.
