An Israeli Property Fair Is Still Advertising Illegal West Bank Homes to Brits (novaramedia.com)

An Israeli property roadshow is still advertising homes in illegal West Bank settlements to prospective buyers in the UK – even after London mayor Sadiq Khan raised the matter with the Metropolitan police, the Home Office and the Foreign Office.

Organisers of the ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ apologised last month after it was revealed that brochures handed out at the event in London promoted properties on illegal settlements.

The event’s organisers claimed West Bank settlements had been included “by mistake”. But organisers have since contacted mailing list subscribers with an email promoting the sale of more West Bank homes on behalf of Israeli real estate company Harey Zahav.

They'll sell them anyway. It seems nobody wants to stop them. And they'll be British buyers too. Nothing will happen. No consequences.

This is the world we live in.
