NEW WEST BANK settlements rebuked.

The White House said Friday it regretted Israel's reported plans to build new settlements, calling it "inconsistent" with its international commitments to the peace process.
"We regret the reports of Israel's plans to approve additional settlement construction," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said in a statement.
"Continued settlement activity is inconsistent with Israel's commitment under the Roadmap," he said, referring to the blueprint for a permanent two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"As the president has said before, the United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued settlement expansion and we urge that it stop," Gibbs said. LinkHere
