Palestinians Are Destroying King Herod's Palace in Jericho
(Israel Hayom) Nadav Shragai - The Palestinians received the excavated site of King Herod's Third Palace near Jericho as part of the Oslo Accords. Recently it was discovered that the Palestinians had built housing around it, with some of the homes constructed on the grounds of the palace itself. The remains of the palace are being systematically demolished to construct a road. The historic edifice is being stripped of its stone, and the supporting pillars and arches have been defaced. Most of Herod's palace lies within Area A of the West Bank, where the Palestinian Authority has exclusive control.
