First they assault our sense of humanity by forcing those families to sleep on the street, but what this report does not really address, is that they then attack our intellegence by saying it's just a matter of real estate law or city ordinances that didn't go the Palestinians' way(not part of a cruel ethnic purification plan), with the added subtest that Arabs are just too primative to understand the concept of law. I guess what they are counting on is that we won't remember that the case before that lost some real estate for Palestinians, and the one before that. In fact, unless someone has total amnesia, they'll realize that under Israeli law, Palestinians can never win.
