and in which Area of the West Bank ?????

Do me a favor please and read all of this :

Yes, take away our ice cream

Of course I want to live in a reality where Israelis recognize and work to end the occupation. But we don't, so we need companies like Ben & Jerry's to scoop up our Chunky Monkey.

The answer is no. The residents of Humsa do not have Ben & Jerry’s ice cream in their freezers. In fact, they don’t have freezers or refrigerators. Their village doesn’t even have electricity. Like most of the shepherding communities in Area C of the West Bank — under full Israeli military control — and like many other Palestinian communities across the occupied territories living in what the IDF has declared “live-fire zones,” the residents of Humsa have no option of connecting to an electricity grid. They cannot build homes or tents or use the water infrastructure, because Israel rejects 98.6 percent of Palestinians’ requests for building permits on their land.
