Israel to forcibly evict 40,000 Bedouins from ancestral land

Vatic Note:  Well, lets stop and think for a moment.  Regular readers here know that we are no friend of the khazars, even though we are friends of the Jewish arabs of the Bible.   Further, think about the fact that the Negev Desert is where the underground facilities for nukes, bioweapons and chemical warfare research is all housed and conducted.   Think also about the nuke hardened bunkers we showed you pictures of from a write up by and Israeli that had to seek asylum outside of Israel and he did so in Canada.  He showed the underground bases in the Negev and the nuke harded fronts of the entrances.   One does not build nuke hardened facilities if one is not expecting a nuke attack.  Well, given no one else has nukes in the middle unless Israel gave them to them, then who will be nuking Israel in the future???  Certainly not Turkey who has no nukes, nor Iran who has no nukes, nor any of the middle east countries, so WHO do they believe will be nuking them and how do they know??? 

Just questions that need answering because it fits these questions when you also ask "Why are the relocating these bedoin tribes?"  The answer becomes almost obvious.  Could there be a smiggen of humanity in these crisis creating, unimaginative and anal retentive Khazars???  Do they relate to the bedoins since they were once roving, and migrant travelers themselves?  But unlike the Bedoins,  they were looking for victims to rob in Mongolia.  This doesn't seem as clear cut as it should.  I am not into giving the Khazars a break, but in this case, it might well be for the Bedoins own good, to protect them from whatever loony horrors the Khazars have planned down the road.  If that is the case, then we must be getting close to time for the final curtain.   Time to get them away from our military and armaments and sent back to their own country before they can use us to do more damage to others.

The Israel government is preparing to evict as many as 40,000 Indigenous Bedouins from their ancestral lands in the Negev desert.

Israel's adoption of the controversial "Prawer Plan" earlier this month has set the stage for the seizure of more than two-thirds of the Bedouin's total land base in Beer Sheva, an area that the Bedouin have inhabited for more than a thousand years.

Calling the "Prawer Plan" controversial is, perhaps, an understatement, since it includes not only the destruction of 37 Bedouin villages; but also the forced relocation of indigenous peoples to an area beside a garbage dump.

"According to Israeli human rights group B’Tselem, the first phase is planned to begin as early as January 2012, and would forcibly evict approximately 2,300 persons — who are currently living in about twenty communities near the Israeli settlement of Maale Adumim — and transfer them to a new location near the Abu Dis garbage dump, just east of Jerusalem," reports IPS News.

The United Nations' Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) recently stated that carrying out such a relocation without Bedouin consent is a violation of international law. "As an occupying power, Israel has an obligation to protect the Palestinian civilian population and to administer the territory for the benefit of that population. Any voluntary move or transfer of civilians must meet international standards, including relating to a free and informed choice."

OCHA also said that the proposed relocation site will put at risk the Bedouin peoples' health and way of life. "The proposed site does not meet minimum standards in terms of distance from the municipal dumping grounds, which is likely to pose a health hazard to the communities, and provides limited access to grazing lands. Previously relocated families report negative consequences, including health concerns, loss of livelihood, deteriorated living conditions, loss of tribal cohesion and erosion of traditional lifestyles."

It goes without saying, Israel needs to abandon this malicious plan to quite literally throw the Bedouin into the garbage. Of course, it never should have adopted it in the first place; but then, when have we ever been able to rely on a colonial government for acting in the best interests of Indigenous Peoples? They never do it on their own.

What You Can Do

Please sign this petition and join the international call to:

1. Stop funding and participating in the forestation and development of any area that is the site of an existing or demolished Bedouin village. Stop all development of lands for which Bedouin have made legal claims of ownership until their cases have been fully adjudicated in Israeli courts or a mutually agreeable just settlement is reached.

2. Submit JNF’s development plans for the Negev to independent scrutiny by environmental, human rights and social justice organizations to work toward truly sustainable development of the Negev for ALL its inhabitants, Jews and Arabs alike.

3. Fund projects for Israel’s Bedouin citizens and communities at levels that are proportional to the size of this population in the Negev—nearly 30%—recognizing the contribution of the Bedouin to the flourishing of the Negev.

4. Join with human rights organizations in Israel to allow the Bedouin to live on their traditional lands, as they have for many generations.
