The Knesset plenum approved in a preliminary reading a bill that would allow Jews to be registered owners of land in the West Bank. The bill, which was drafted at the initiative of the Land of Israel Lobby, headed by Knesset lawmakers Simcha Rotman and Moshe Salomon, was approved by a majority of 58 Knesset members against 33 opponents. Rotman said: "This is a precedent-setting, moral and just bill that will correct a long-standing display of racism in Judea and Samaria against Jews."
