From Reuters: Egyptian authorities demolished 20 illegally built homes in the Sharm el Sheikh area and plan to raze 1,500 more.
The NGO silence is deafening. According to Israeli Committee Against Home Demolitions’ own statistics, “about 1900 Palestinian homes have been demolished by the Civil Administration for lack of proper permits” between Sept. 2000-May 2007.
It would take Israel years to demolish same number of homes Egypt intends to destroy. So why is the world’s outrage against the destruction of illegally built homes reserved for Israel?
