Property Is A Crime?

"According to a report by the Israel Police, drug trafficking, trafficking of women for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation, illicit gambling, pirate filling stations, and real estate are the major forms of crime in the country." This sentence cites "real estate" as a crime. Can someone clarify what is being done illegally with said real estate? Tiger Khan (talk) 19:46, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is saying "pirate filling stations and real estate", not "pirate filling stations, and real estate". This means pirate filling stations and pirate real estate. I have removed the comma you added which makes a different meaning. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 20:02, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What is pirate real estate? Like docks for the Jolly Roger to sail out of or something? Seriously, that's no help at all. Can you give me a specific crime, i.e. extortion, etc. that is known as "pirate real estate"? Also, how does a pirate filling station work? Does it secret tap into a gas line or something?
