A group of Zionist activists are planning ways to resist the building freeze in Judea and Samaria announced this week by the Prime Minister's Office. The activists call themselves the Task Force in the Struggle against Pharaoh's Decrees, explaining Thursday night that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's declarations on the area's Jewish communities recall in many ways the decrees of Pharaoh against the Jewish people in the Biblical book of Exodus. They added that this week's declarations appear intended to prevent a new generation of community residents.
The group proposed the enclosing of porches, among other methods of increasing the number of housing units in the region. They also proposed the training of local Jewish labor.
