MK Orit Strock of the Religious Zionism party arrives at the Gush Etzion staging area and gives her full support for those attempting to establish new illegal West Bank outposts.

Struck says: “I for sure support what Nachala is doing,” despite the army and police stating that such activity is illegal.

Nachala is a right-wing settlement movement organization.

“The people who came here express the principles in which I believe,” she adds. “The entire land of Israel belongs to us and it is forbidden for us to abandon it to the Palestinian Authority.

Strock accuses Defense Minister Benny Gantz of giving “free rein to the Palestinian Authority to build and take control of all the land that remains in Judea and Samaria and annex it de facto and create a Palestinian state without any agreement, just by illegally seizing land. We came here to put an end to this.”
