One can never really know how the prime minister will react in September, when his self-imposed 10-month construction freeze comes to an end, but in a Likud faction meeting on Monday, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu responded to MK Tzipi Hotovely, who asked what will occur.
The prime minister stated that just as Israel has built in Jerusalem and elsewhere for the past 42 years since the June 1967 Six Day War; Jerusalem will continue doing the same.
Mr. Netanyahu marked some of his achievements, one of which is simplifying the process by which one may obtain a construction permit.

Stick to your plans this time, Mr. Netanyahu.
The nerve of America! The lunatic of Iran spouts destruction during two administrations; and nothing. Israel approves new construction and all of a sudden the American geniuses in the White House speak out about the “horror” of building something in your own country?
Why not speak out that there are Arab countries that forbid Jews from entering while Arabs who are Israeli citizens live better than they could in any arab country? Telling Israel Jews cannot build and live in Jerusalem is beyond apartheid. It is unmitigated chutzpah!!!
