EU Builds "Resistance Schools" to Help PA Grab Land in Israeli-Administered Territories
(JNS) David Isaac - Under the 2009 plan drawn up by former Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayyad, "resistance schools" are being built with EU funding in Area C of Judea and Samaria, which entirely falls under Israeli jurisdiction. The schools are a key element in a wider plan to create unilateral facts on the ground and encroach on Israeli territory, says Naomi Kahn, director of the International Division at Israeli NGO Regavim. "We tracked and mapped out 100 such schools....They're placed in strategic spots in Area C." If the schools are left standing, the PA builds villages around them. "There are schools that are built at archaeological sites, inside firing zones, even on property belonging to Jewish communities," she said.
