The international community, including the US doesnt recognise the legality of the colonies on occupied lands. It is certain that with the swing to the right in Israel, whoever is elected will be more intransigent and will continue with the expansion and building of future colonies. What kind of response will this provoke in the Obama administration? Will it lead to a drastic cut in funding given to this new government or will they look the otheer way as they have done for years?
