So not to be cynical here, but unfortunately, the likely result of the land registry is that they're going to say, oh, all of this land belongs to these Jewish organizations because they're not going to take any of our documents into consideration. But that means that there's going to be another campaign and there's going to be a long-winded fight. And we'll see what happens. But that's the fear.

I always make a joke that being in an Israeli court is like playing a game of broken telephone, because everybody's speaking in Hebrew, and then your lawyer says something to your dad, and your dad says something to your mom, and your mom whispers it in your ear, and then you say it to your cousin, and your cousin has a completely different idea of the verdict than what the verdict is, but that's really the reality.

No, it's like groups. So like in our case, it's like four houses, every four houses. But again, it happens in a language we do not speak. And a lot of the time our strategy is buying time and, you know, building a global campaign. Like we know that there is no recourse in the Israeli courts.

Yeah, I mean, in our case, it was the international community, but in our case also, it wasn't just the international community. It was the hundreds of thousands of people in Palestine and abroad who were marching on the streets, getting beaten and brutalized in Jerusalem. And I don't know, sometimes arrested in places like Germany and so on and so forth.
