Were any of the illegal settlements on the West Bank there before 1967?

Oh sure, plenty of the settlements were there before 1948, when the Jordanians did a thorough Jew-clearance of the land. Do you count the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem or Hebron, where Jews have lived for thousands of years, as "illegal settlements", btw? Then there was Gilo in Jerusalem, mostly Jewish owned, and the entire Kfar Etzion block of settlements south of Jerusalem. All Jewish owned land, all cleared of Jews in 1948.

Next question?
