Israel Defence Minister approves illegal colonial expansion

Not exactly shock news but the Defence Minister here is the new darling of the zionist left (after Ariel Sharon) Amir Peretz. This is from Ha'aretz:
Defense Minister Amir Peretz has approved expansion of four West Bank settlements, the first such approvals under his tenure.

The expansion orders enlarged the settlements' "jurisdictional area," a designation which in many cases serves as a prelude to construction of new settlement neighborhoods.

Most of the settlements involved are located close to the pre-1967 war Green Line border.
So that's alright then, the local natives will be used to colonial settlement.
