From
Ha'aretz (emphasis mine, added word "by" in 4th paragraph, seems to be missing from English translation):
The Yesha settlement council on Saturday condemned a Peace Now report released November 20 claiming that 130 settlements in the West Bank were constructed completely or partially on private Palestinian lands.
According to the council, the report represents a "fraud and sleight of hand, through which Peace Now seeks to deceive Israeli society and the international community in order to apply pressure for a full withdrawal of the areas Israel liberated in the <1967> Six-Day War."
The council's position paper, released to synagogues this weekend, makes no reference to specific communities cited in the Peace Now report, and the criticism directed at the report is primarily ideological.
--snip--
Peace Now said the figures presented in the report are those used (by) the government, and were passed to it by the civil administration - a statement the administration did not deny.
I'm really grateful the Yeshiva council have their heads so far up their asses that their PR machine only bothers to expend just enough energy to get the heads nodding within their own little bubble. Like the
"No innocents during time of war" Halachic interpretation. I'd like to think that Diasporic Jews, even Orthodox ones, see this sort of abuse of the Torah and think twice about supporting the fanatacism that drives it.
When you take radical clerics who want to install a Caliphate in the Middle East and radical rabbis who want to insinuate Eretz Yisrael, translate them into English, they both pretty much read the same.
