Palestine, Settlements, UN Resolution

My latest article has been published at Mondoweiss.

“UNSC resolution 2334 includes weaker language on Israeli settlements than prior UNSC resolutions which called for Israel to dismantle existing settlements and lacks a real enforcement mechanism. There is little reason to believe it will have a practical effect in halting and dismantling Israel’s settlement enterprise.” – Mondoweiss
