Absurdities of Israeli liberalism

Look at this report (more extensive in the Hebrew edition I am told):  "The Israel Lands Administration is transferring properties in the Silwan neighborhood and the Old City of Jerusalem to right-wing groups Elad and Ateret Cohanim for low prices, without issuing a tender as required by law, a Haaretz investigation has found."  What got my attention is not the typical theft of land but the phrase "without issuing a tender as required by law". The entire country was stolen by force and Haaretz really thinks that there are legal procedures when it comes to land in Israel? (thanks Bakria)
