Inside Story - Israeli settlements - 25 May 09:

Comment: Al Jazeera calls it a trend, but the facts show otherwise. Yes, there are a few seeking to buy homes in settlements, yet they have been trying without success. It's not only because Israeli settlers refuse to sell to Palestinians, but because some of the settlements are owned by the JNF which prohibits their selling to Palestinians [and in other cases the legal obstacles are endless]. Besides, the numbers, even of those unsuccessfuly seeking to buy, is so low compared to the number of units in the settlements themselves that you can't even consider it.
That's why I reject the sensationalism of this so called trend and call it nothing but hogwash.

Anyways, here's the caption of the video
"Inside story discusses the growing trend of Arabs buying homes in Israeli settlements."
