New Israeli Plan to Isolate Jerusalem from Palestinian Cities
JERUSALEM, May 10, 2007 (WAFA) - A new Israeli colony plan, on building 20, 000 housing units on lands occupied in 1967, was approved by Jerusalem's municipality, an Israeli paper reported Thursday.
Haarets newspaper quoted head of the municipality's planning committee Yehosua Pollak as saying the aim of establishing the new Jewish neighborhoods was to form a geographical connection between Jerusalem and southern districts and Tel Aviv's colonies.
The plan was approved ten days ago, the paper added.
The new plan will isolate Jerusalem from all Palestinian cities, including Ramallah, Bethlaham, and Jericho.
