Two Palestinian Arabs were arrested last week, one in Jordan and the other in Jericho, after authorities learned that they had sold property to Jews in Hebron.
Under an old Jordanian law that the Palestinian Authority has vigorously maintained, the two now face a maximum penalty of death.
A group of young Jews moved into the unfinished house in question last month, sparking an international uproar after at least two local Arabs claimed the property had been stolen from them.
Hebron Jewish leaders said the arrest, while despicable and racist in nature, provides ample evidence that they are indeed the rightful owners of the property.
Israel ought to be intervening on these men's behalf. But of course...Olmert doesn't even truly intervene on the behalf of Israeli soldiers kidnapped by the 'Palestinian government.' Sick freak.
