Israel's dismantling of outposts nothing more than media event - 24 May 09

Outposts are often built on hilltops by Israeli settlers without their government's approval, notwithstanding international law.

Despite promises from Israel to dismantle the outposts they consider illegal, they still allow settlers to continue building and some even receive infrastructure support.

Al Jazeera's Nour Odeh reports from the West Bank where human rights groups say dismantling outposts is nothing more than a media event.
