Israeli settlers make last stand on a West Bank hill

  • 8 years ago
On a wind-blown hill in Palestinian territory, Elad Ziv, wearing sandals, a T-shirt and a Jewish skullcap, stands outside his home and speaks about the Old Testament's Book of Joshua. Across the dry, rocky valley that slopes behind him, Fuad Maadi says he just wants his land back. Both men have become embroiled in a drama which has now taken on international importance because of concern over Israeli settlement expansion in the West Bank, occupied by Israel since 1967.
