Reuters re settlements: "most of the world views them as illegal under intl law.
"Israel disputes this, citing security needs, biblical/ historical ties"
Nonsense. The legality of settlements under intl law is upheld by erudite legal authorities
and
by "minor" documents such as the UN's own charter (article 80) which is a leading instrument of int'l law.
So this article teaches not Israeli legality, but rather Reuters' unprofessionalism.
