Settlers cite legality when it suits them

In this Jerusalem Post story, Benzi Lieberman, chairman of the Council of Jewish Communities in Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip, comments on the disengagement bill currently under debate:

"The law is manifestly illegal," he charged. "It has a black flag flying over it."

Excuse me, Mr. Lieberman, but what about those illegal settlement outposts in the West Bank? Or do those not count?
