"The tiny Jordan Valley village of Khirbet al-Tawil, surrounded by encroaching Jewish settlements, launched a hunger strike to make the world notice their distress. ... The coordinator of government activities in the territories stated in response: "The Khirbet al-Tawil compound is located in Area C, and has an agricultural designation. Part of it is under a military closure order and in fire zones, and was built without permits and contrary to the master plan. Over the years, 28 stop-work orders were delivered for illegal construction.""

Media Researcher Notes
The press attache points out that stone throwing can have fatal consequences, and that some of the Palestinian minors in Israel are accused of extremely serious crimes, for example the murder of the Fogels, a family of colonists last March. However, he skirts the fact that the majority of stone throwing incidents do not have such lethal consequences, and that most of the Palestinian minors in Israeli jails are not accused of serious crimes. Moreover, sleep deprivation and solitary confinement of minors, for weeks at a time, are always violations of fundamental rights of juvenile detainees.

Two days after cancelling a school tour of Hebron with the dissident group 'Breaking the Silence', the Israeli government launched a program of school tours in support of the Occupation... "Education Minister Gideon Sa'ar on Wednesday informed the Knesset plenum that he planned to expand a pilot curriculum of student tours in the West Bank city of Hebron and the Tomb of the Patriarchs. The controversial "heritage tours" curriculum has until now been geared only toward students in the Jerusalem school district, but Sa'ar now wants to make it available to students across the country."
