In the PA (Palestinian Authority), it is a capital offense to sell homes and land to Israelis and the PA has arrested the brother and a son of a man who recently sold two homes to Jews in Hebron. According to an Arutz-7 News report, when the PA was contacted regarding the arrests the person was told the 17-year-old and his uncle in custody would not see the light of day until such time the man who actualized the sales turns himself over to authorities.
Ironically, last week, Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon ordered the eviction of the residents of these buildings and his move was backed by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
At that time, the Jewish community leaders announced that the homes were purchased legally and there was no cause for the eviction, adding that instead of worrying about evicting the Jews, the government should protect the man who sold the homes so not harm comes to him.

interesting that the human rights groups don’t jump on this; a man sells his house to a Jew and is thrown in jail and a price on his head!
So we know what kind of government to expect from a Palestinian government in the WB
Just think about the positive side of the family arrests.
Two (2) less Arabs out there with a knife, a gun, or a bomb looking to kill a Jewish person.
Waiting for international outcry.
Waiting.
Waiting.
