Former Yesha Council Chairman Pinchas Wallerstein said Sunday that while the eviction of families from Migron was a terrible event, he was positive it would be a springboard to even greater accomplishments in the Jewish settlement of Judea and Samaria. In an interview with Arutz Sheva, Wallerstein said that “we have to take the sweet from every bitter event. Like Elon Moreh, which was dismantled and rebuilt, Migron will become a significant milestone in the settlement movement.”

Wallerstein, along with several other Yesha leaders, established Migron 13 years ago.
