The Editor,
The Globe and Mail.
Dear Editor:
In your editorial :["End Illegal settlements" March
11], you quite rightly call for ending the illegal unauthorized settlements. It
has to be remembered that not only the hundreds of 'outposts', that have been
built on strategic hills, are illegal. All settlements, authorised or otherwise
by the the Israeli government, built in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip
are illegal, as defined by Security Council resolution and the Fourth Geneva
Convention, and must all be dismantled, if there is going to be peace in
this tortured land.
Yours sincerely,
Ismail Zayid
