Det er næppe kommet ret mange danskere for øre, men de israelske myndigheder har netop jævnet landsbyen Al-Araqeeb med jorden.
40 familier, 300 menneskers livsgrundlag ødelagt af israelske buldozere, fordi staten har bestemt, at netop denne del af Negev-ørkenen skal være araberfrit.
Ødelæggelsen af landsbyen fandt ovenikøbet sted på trods af, at landsbyboerne havde fået medhold i den israelske højesteret. Israel, et demokrati og en retsstat... min bare røv.

What gives Israel the right to do this? What gives Israel the right to determine that these native people who’ve lived in this precise spot since before the existence of the State, must leave simply because the State determines that this area much be Arab-rein? Yes, the government has decreed that only Jews can live in this part of the Negev. In fact, the JNF plans to aid and abet this ethnic cleansing by planting one of its famous forests where the village stood. It must hope that it can eradicate all traces of the place, just as it has done with hundreds of similar Arab villages which were emptied and destroyed during the Nakba.
