Israel Supreme Court Won't Block Demolition of Gaza Synagogues
(Ha'aretz) Yuval Yoaz and Nadav Shragai - On Thursday, an expanded panel of Supreme Court justices gave a go-ahead to the demolition of the Gaza synagogues when it decided by a 4-3 majority not to hold further debates on the issue. A final decision on the matter will be made at a cabinet meeting on Sunday. In their decision, the judges noted that, "There exist various political considerations that influence the decision. The fate of the synagogues in the evacuated areas is a complex and multi-faceted matter under the direct responsibility of the government."
