U.S. buyer of controversial Hebron house moves in ahead of eviction threat

The Jewish-American man who says he purchased the House of Contention in Hebron moved in to live there yesterday, joining the 16 Jewish families already residing in the building and hundreds of rightist activists who have come to prevent security forces from evicting the tenants.

A High Court of Justice ruling last week gave the settlers three days to evacuate, but a loophole was found allowing them to remain for a full 30 days before any force could be taken.

Morris Abraham claims he legally purchased the property from a Palestinian, but the alleged seller says he changed his mind and that the deal was never finalized.
