The Law of Acquisition of Absentee Property

The Law of Acquisition of Absentee Property

The Law of Acquisition of Absentee Property gave the Israeli state the legal right to confiscate all Arab land unless the owners could produce documentary evidence showing they owned that land and also providing they had not left their residence between September 29, 1947 and September 1 1948 to go anywhere outside Jewish control. It was often impossible for many Arabs to prove land ownership as most land was never registered but had passed on through hereditary right.

Wonderful example of the Zio-Nazi tolerance! Don't you think the gas chamber is too good for them?
