Coalition Chairman MK Ze’ev Elkin reminded the Knesset of past outpost political support. “The Ulpena neighborhood was promoted during the previous Netanyahu administration. Ehud Barak, as PM, provided residents with financial encouragement to purchase homes there, and Opposition Chairman Shaul Mofaz, as IDF CoS signed all the approvals. This government was elected for its policies, and we must support the residents who settled the land based on those policies.”
