The Settlement Issue
Diane E. really wants me to notice this essay by Hillel Halkin at the Jerusalem Post, criticizing the recent actions of Jewish settlers in the disputed territories. It’s a thorny issue, and reader Ted B also says it’s time to discuss it.
To keep things in context, Hillel Halkin is anything but a Ha’aretz-style liberal; in May the OpinionJournal published a piece by him titled Why the Settlements Should Stay.
