Revava

This page is subject to the extended confirmed restriction related to the Arab-Israeli conflict.Revava (Hebrew: רְבָבָה), is an Orthodox Jewish Israeli settlement in the West Bank.

Built over land confiscated from the nearby Palestinian cities of Deir Istiya[2] and Haris,[3] it falls under the jurisdiction of Shomron Regional Council.

At a celebration rally, residents released 2,000 blue and white balloons, the colors of the Israeli flag, to symbolize a new wave of housing construction.

[citation needed] According to Zionist Organization of America, in 2008, the Israeli courts found Peace Now guilty of publishing false statements regarding ownership of the land.

When the organization refused to abide by the court order to apologize, the fund that purchased the property sued, charging Peace Now and the authors of the false report for slander.

[10][11] ZOA National President, Morton Klein called on Jewish organizations, the Israeli government and journalists to publicly condemn Peace Now for promoting lies and falsehoods.
