True. On the other hand, we aren't talking about a thoroughly developed community here. This sort of exacting law enforcement has its costs, and the balance of those costs should be evaluated in context. Given the limited industrial resources of this particular community I would be inclined to promote the retention of local infrastructure regardless of legal niceties.

It's also true that Israel has a history of limiting Palestinian development, of course. Sometimes for good reasons, sometimes not.

All in all I disagree that it's not relevant here. Maybe inflammatory, though.
