also says the article, which then quotes some pissed off Likudnik.

So, there are new Jewish housing units and new Arab housing units in East Jerusalem. Everyone gets more housing.

Hooray! It's a win-win situation.

Unless one doesn't care about improving Palestinian lives, only about harming Israel. Then the Arab housing is no gain but the Jewish housing is a loss, so the net is a negative.
