Bulldozes from the Jewish National Fund demolished the Bedouin village for
Al-Arakib for the ninth time yesterday and today. They also demolished the
village’s olive groves the week of Tu Bshvat, which celebrates the flowering
of trees so they can grow a forest named after a Fundamentalist Christian TV
channel and foreign ambassadors. The visitors were held in the village’s grav-
eyard while the demolition took place, with much more force than usual.
The Only Democracy? spoke with Roii Ball, an Israeli activist with the joint
groupTarabut-Hithabrut: Arab–Jewish Movement for Social & Political Change,
who has visited Al-Arakib several times.
