A lesser-known Israeli population—the Palestinian Bedouin of Al-Naqab (Negev)—Dispossessed Citizens of Israel
The Arab Center-Washington D.C. held a webinar last week about how Israel continues its policy of dispossession of Palestinians, in this case, the Bedouin of Al-Naqab or Negev, who are citizens of Israel. One of the most striking messages made by the webinar discussants was that the state of Israel is treating its Bedouin citizens as if they were “enemies.” Contributing writer, John Mason, reports on recent demonstrations in Al-Naqab which have brought the policy of dispossession to a boil.
