25 settlements that Shaaron has promised to eradicate

The following is a capsule guide to the 25 settlements that Sharon has promised to eradicate. To those of us who know better, it is in reality an appeasement to barbaric palestinian terrorists who themselves fabricated a history, a culture, and a society in order to institute a kleptocracy. The palestinians are the true occupiers and aggressors.

SAMARIA - NORTHERN WEST BANK

1. Ganim

Population: 172 [30 families]. Founded: 1983. Location: Just east of
Jenin. Most residents expected to leave voluntarily.

2. Homesh
