Defense Official: Joseph's Tomb Should Be on Agenda with Palestinians

[Ha'aretz ] Nadav Shragai - Israeli negotiators should tell the Palestinians that Jews should be able to return to Joseph's Tomb in Nablus, Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai told the Knesset on Wednesday. With the outbreak of the second intifada, in September 2000, the Palestinians demolished and looted the site, removing any sign of Jewish presence and turning it into a refuse dump.
