Awful. I wonder why they chose to do this now, and what the implications are (if any) for Ulpana.

I don’t know anything about when Ramat Migron was established, and how big it is. Do you know background on this community?

It was established decades ago with active government encouragement, but an Arab one day made a claim of ownership to Begatz (SCOI), and without investigation or evidence, they granted judgment in favor of the Arab, who withdrew his claim when asked for proof of his ownership. But because it wasn’t part of the National Jewish Fund, Judge Beinish decreed that it is privately-owned Arab land, notwithstanding the lack of an identifiable owner, and Migron was ordered demolished. National Jewish Fund lands were a posthumous grant of properties that the Baron Edmond Benjamin de Rotschilde purchased, and are located not only in Israel, but also in Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. So those in Judah and Samaria were re-settled by Jews after 1967, but Migron wasn’t a part of the NJF.

Perhaps not as "nice" as other settlements, but still home to a number of families whose crime is to believe that God gave that land to the descendants of Isaac (not Ishmael).

This outpost has been destroyed before, hasn't it Eleutheria5? All I can say is that the fools in Jerusalem are as isolated from the regular people as the ones in Washington DC. I'm in prayer for the residents of Ramat Migron.
