This is the story of much if Israel's land, which was expropriated under the Absentee Property Laws. Even Present Absentees, as in this case, are not allowed the land back - similar to villages like Lifta, in Jerusalem. These laws confirm the apartheid status of the Israeli State, and the perversity of its planning and land laws, illegal under international law. These laws should be rescinded, and in interests of justice, such land must be returned to its original owners.Abe Hayeem, APJP
