Finance minister will oppose Amona bill

Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon says he will oppose the Amona bill as it harms the standing of the High Court

“I will not support a law that harms the High Court, I promised this,” says Kahlon.

The High Court has ruled that the government must evacuate the West Bank settlement, which is built on private Palestinian land. But a bill pushed by the Jewish Home party would regularize the outpost, bypassing the court.
