TEL AVIV, Israel (Ma’an) — Israel has appointed a lawyer paid by settlers to advocate legalizing settler outposts to a government committee examining how to allow unauthorized settlements, Israeli media reported.

Alan Baker, who lives in settlement Har Adar, was hired by an outpost legalization advocacy outfit, and nine days ago issued a legal opinion stating that Israel was authorized to lease Palestinian land deemed ‘abandoned’ to Jewish-only settlements, the Israeli daily Haaretz reported.

The opinion contradicts a legal opinion from Israel’s Justice Ministry 20 years ago, the report said.

Baker will now join two Israeli judges to on the government committee examining the use of Palestinian land for more settlements in the occupied West Bank.

Meanwhile, Israelis living in a settler outpost that was ordered to be dismantled by the High Court plan to flood courts with petitions to demolish Bedouin buildings in the Negev, Haaretz reported.

Moves to take down the Ramallah-district Migron outpost sparked violent clashes between settlers and Israeli forces, and a series of ‘price tag’ attacks on Palestinian and Israeli army property.

Settler attacks in the West Bank against Palestinians increased by more than 50 percent in 2011, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

The international community regards all settlements built on occupied Palestinian land to be illegal, while the Israel government distinguishes between the more than 100 state-sponsored settlements and dozens of unauthorized outposts.
