Settlement hurts chance of Settlement



Despite objections from the Obama administration, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he will allow settlements to continue to expand and be built within Palestinian areas of the country.

Good news!

The latest project is in the predominately Palestinian area of East Jerusalem. I was able to scoop up a classified ad for an apartment in the development from Jerusalem Craigslist:

>Cozy 2bdrm share near bus depot

>Hi, I am a 20something Israeli professional looking for a roommate in
>my East Jerusalem apt.
>
>Really nice place with hard wood floors and stainless steel appliances.
>This place is the bomb! (pun intended...I fear for my life).

>Your room would be about 10'x12'. Three HUGE windows, so you may

>I consider all arabs dogs, and you should too. I am pet friendly though,
