Yesha Council Chairman on Qusra events: ‘Serious and not our way, no justification for violence’

Binyamin Regional Council Head and Yesha Council Chairman, Yisrael Gantz, addressed the events in Qusra and stated: “There is no place for privately deciding to establish a hilltop in a house’s yard, even when it is an illegal house or an attempt to take over the area.”

“There is no justification whatsoever for violence against uninvolved people or against security forces. There is no doubt that there are those who are exploiting these events for a campaign against the settlement movement, but this must not obscure the simple fact: What happened in Qusra is not right and is not acceptable to us. We lead and will continue to lead the settlement movement in Binyamin, Judea, and Samaria with determination and responsibility, in an orderly and proper way. Alongside this, I call on the Israeli government to cancel the Oslo Accords and allow legitimate and orderly Jewish settlement in all open areas.”
