In any case, and even in this the most important thing. As detailed above, from the testimony of Mr. Sidon, as well as from his conversation with the Goren Hearing Authority, which took place during the months of March-April 2013 (the transcript of the conversation was attached as Appendix A/5 to the evidence), it clearly appears, in contrast to the plaintiffs' version in their affidavits, that the plaintiffs knew that "the lands belong to the Administration" (p. 29 of the transcript of Q. 27-28). Mr. Zidon even testified that "a few months to a year after the transaction" (paragraph 18 of his affidavit), he warned his friends "that there is a chance that we ate it and that the manager may make use of his right to return the land to himself. I shared this information with my friends but they rejected it outright...(paragraph 18 of his affidavit; See also: his interrogation at p. 1203 of Prov. S. 16; Ibid., p. 1207, paras. 24-26; Ibid., p. 1208, paras. 4-7). We have already clarified that the lack of action on the part of the plaintiffs at the time, in relation to the issue related to their claim in the heart of the engagement, shows that at the time they knew that a lease contract had been signed with the manager and were even aware of the provision of section 15, but nevertheless chose to ignore it.
This is especially true when even after the clarification conversation that Mr. Shimoni had with Mr. Dahari, Mr. Zidon testified that "I did not buy" Mr. Dahari's claim "that there is no chance and that the manager will never use it" (ibid., at p. 1208, paras. 17-23). Mr. Zidon added that his friends "bought it" (ibid., ibid.) and "they were pretty much not bothered by it" (ibid., p. 1210, s. 26 to p. 1211, s. 1), while thinking "that I was babbling" (ibid., p. 1209, s. 24). However, he said, "all along," he remained steadfast in his position "that there is a very good chance that we ate it. I spoke with the friends" (ibid., p. 1210, paras. 2-4).
