Illegal Israeli Settlement Fortresses in the Occupied West Bank where a fully sovereign and free Palestinian State was supposed to be

Please understand that this is not a religious issue

"Friends, please allow me to explain a crucial point. 
 
Israel has been building illegal cities (settlements) on Palestinian land for decades - Palestinian land that is supposed to be part of a future Palestinian state. The world has condemned the building of these cities, but Israel keeps building them. 
 

In order to build them, they steal land from Palestinian residents and families. It's been ongoing, even though I can remember presidents as far back as Ronald Reagan strongly condemning Israel for this policy. 
 
The policy is obviously aimed at pushing people out, at emptying Palestinian land of its Palestinian residents, people who have inhabited that land for thousands of years.
 
It is not a myth or a lie that we are indigenous to the land. As an example, Palestinian Christians have baptismal records proving their existence in Palestine for at least a couple of hundred years. 
 
So now, Israeli companies are holding real estate sales IN THE UNITED STATES to sell homes to Americans in these illegal settlements. It's like selling a vacation home to someone that has been built on the wreckage of someone else's stolen land. This comes after the recent news that Netanyahu approved the building of 30,000 new homes built illegally on Palestinian land. 
 
Please understand that this is not a religious issue. This is an issue about ongoing land theft! 
 
Please understand what is happening."
