Israel is planning to demolish 'illegal' solar panel renewable energy installations in Palestinian villages in the Occupied West Bank. The projects were installed by an Israeli NGO, ME Comet, and paid for by German aid.
The Israeli government of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu says the projects must be torn down because they have no permit.
Crazy and EVIL
ReplyDeleteI recall the Israelis tearing down a Palestinian children's playground built with Western money. It cited the same permit reason.
ReplyDeleteNot surprising. Removes Israeli control.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of Greenspan when he suggested tearing down empty houses.
ReplyDeleteThe documentary "The Human Turbine" follows this exact group of Palestinians who are actively fighting these arcane regulations and the Israelis who are trying to help them fend off the hands of the Israeli state. Fascinating true story about how the state resists impoverished populations from their attempts to become economically self-reliant.
