East Jerusalem Homes occupied by Settlers

Settlers take over another house in East Jerusalem. Hagit Ofran, who tracks Israeli settlement growth, has more details:

Nine Palestinian families lived in the house rented by their family already from the 30′s. The land lord, a Palestinian who left to the US, apparently sold the house to the settlers. Few years ago they got to know that their land lord is no longer the Palestinian they knew, but a foreign company named “Blue Stars World Investments” representing the settlers. Last night, eight of the families went to a wedding, and as they came back, they found that their homes are occupied by a group of some 30 settlers, protected by the police. The ninth family didn’t go to the wedding and got to stay at home to find the settlers coming in.
