Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh
has urged families from the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh
Jarrah to reject a compromise that would allow them to remain in their
homes for 15 years.
Earlier
this month, the High Court of Justice presented the compromise to four
Palestinian families facing possible eviction from their homes, which
were owned by Jews before 1948.
According to the proposed compromise,
during the time that the families remain in their homes, the issue of
land ownership could be adjudicated, but in the interim, the court would
recognize them as protected tenants and the Jewish Nahalat Shimon
Company as the owners of the property.
And who would pay rent? Because that's one of the reasons this whole thing started - the tenants felt they didn't have to pay anything.
