Israel dismantles Dutch-funded West Bank farming project

The Israeli army dismantled a Dutch-funded project on the West Bank of the Jordan river. The project is an agricultural project in which the Netherlands put 10 million euros, Israel correspondent Jan Franke told BNR.

The project involved teaching Palestinians how to use the land for growing their crops. The entire project, including tools and sheds, was dismantled. According to diplomats, the dismantling was done as revenge – Israel is upset that the EU wants to put special labels on products from Israeli settlements.

Not much can be done against the Israeli’s decision to dismantle the project, Franke said to the broadcaster. “There are many EU aid projects on the West Bank.” he said. “And essentially all the projects and and initiatives exist at the mercy of the Israeli army. They have the control there. If they say: ‘We are going to dismantle, this is not allowed’, then you stand there empty handed.”

Oh yes, seen that, amazing how they don't get touched in an area where everyone else does and with Hamas fighting ISIS is Yarmouk.

In late October an Iranian news agency, quoting a senior Iraqi intelligence officer, reported the capture of an Israeli army colonel, named Yusi Oulen Shahak, reportedly related to the ISIS Golani Battalion operating in Iraq in the Salahuddin front. In a statement to Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency a Commander of the Iraqi Army stated, “The security and popular forces have held captive an Israeli colonel.”

He added that the IDF colonel “had participated in the Takfiri ISIL group’s terrorist operations.” He said the colonel was arrested together with a number of ISIL or IS terrorists, giving the details: “The Israeli colonel’s name is Yusi Oulen Shahak and is ranked colonel in Golani Brigade… with the security and military code of Re34356578765az231434.”

An Overview

Israel dismantles Dutch-funded West Bank farming project Asylum_seeker_protesting

Israel is a reluctant host to 46,437 African asylum seekers predominantly from Eritrea (73%) and Sudan (19%) and a small minority (8%) arriving from several other African countries. The state policy toward asylum seekers (particularly Eritreans and Sudanese) is one of temporary non-deportation, officially referred to as “group protection.” Asylum seekers in Israel are denied basic rights and access to social services and the government of Israel has employed various policies to pressure asylum seekers to leave – including indefinite arbitrary detention, refusal to accept and review asylum claims, limitation of access to basic state-sponsored services, incitement and coerced repatriation. The Supreme Court of Israel has, in two distinct decisions, affirmed that the State’s treatment of African asylum seekers is unacceptable and violates fundamental laws concerning human dignity and liberty. The Court insisted on a comprehensive policy that seriously tackles this issue, but the government remains noncompliant.

Prevention of Infiltration Law

The Prevention of Infiltration Law was passed and implemented in the 1950s, to address Palestinian refugees who re-entered Israel after the establishment of the state of Israel. Whether seeking to return to their homes or to commit terrorist attacks, these individuals were identified as “infiltrators,” highlighting the illegal nature of their border-crossing and the perceived danger they posed to national security. Since 2008, the government of Israel began to apply this term to African asylum seekers and actively sought to utilize the Law against them. In the subsequent years, the Israeli Knesset worked diligently to draft a new amendment to the Law that would officially include African asylum seekers. In 2011 the Knesset successfully passed Amendment III (Amendment I and II referred to Palestinian populations) and implemented it in 2012.

Timeline
Amendment III

Amendment III is the first amendment to the Prevention of Infiltration Law relevant to asylum seekers. It allowed for administrative detention of individuals crossing the border with Egypt “illegally” for up to 3 years and for those coming from “enemy states” for up to 7 years. The Israeli Supreme Court voided Amendment III and ordered the State to release some 2,000 men, women and children from prison, and to review all of their asylum claims within 90 days. The State did not fully comply, releasing only women and children and a small number of humanitarian cases without reviewing their refugee claims, and then passing Amendment IV that became effective immediately.

Amendment IV

Israel dismantles Dutch-funded West Bank farming project Holot

Amendment IV allowed for administrative detention of anyone crossing the border with Egypt “illegally” for 1 year and interminable administrative detention in Holot of individuals who cannot be deported. The State’s explicit intention was to prevent asylum seekers from settling in Israeli cities, although it is clear that it wanted to break the spirit of asylum seekers and to coerce them to sign “voluntary returns” and thereby self-deport. The Israeli Supreme Court voided Amendment IV and ordered for immediate closure of Holot detention center, reduction of daily roll-calls from three to one, and release of asylum seekers held in Saharonim prison. The State did not fully comply, reducing roll calls to one per day and then proceeding to pass Amendment V that became effective immediately.

Amendment V

Amendment V allows for administrative detention of anyone crossing the border with Egypt “illegally” for up to 18 months. The Israeli Supreme Court is expected to rule on its legality in May of 2015.

Refugee Protest Movement

In 2014, African asylum-seekers in Israel came out with a clear voice and asserted themselves as lead players in the process of securing their own rights. A strong cadre of leaders surfaced from within the community and assumed key roles in community mobilization, awareness raising and advocacy. The movement inspired and instilled hope among asylum seekers in spite of the dire situation and brought awareness to Israeli society. For the first time, asylum-seekers were given a face and a name. Key leaders stated their goals and objectives in Hebrew to the local media. Their demands were reasonable, and their approach was orderly and nonviolent, contrary to popular stereotypes. The movement put asylum-seekers on the agenda and generated sympathy among the general public, key decision-makers and stakeholders. At its height, the movement generated participation of 20,000+ asylums seekers and their supporters.

So treating the Africans like shit and none from Syria then.

Last summer in the occupied Golan Heights, an Israeli military ambulance ferrying wounded fighters from across the border in Syria came under attack by Druze.
Rebel fighters had been inadvertently straying into Israeli-held territory for years. But these fighters in the ambulance were different: they were members of the Al Qaeda-linked Jabhat Al Nusra, which has been fighting Bashar Al Assad’s forces with varying degrees of success.
As the chaos of the Syrian civil war deepened, Al Nusra and other extremist groups have taken advantage of the security vacuum to rally support from external governments, reportedly including Turkey and the United States. Israel’s role in aiding these fighters, however, had been shrouded in secrecy until the episode on the Golan Heights.
As the Israeli ambulance sped towards a field hospital with two wounded Al Nusra fighters, it encountered a large group of Druze blocking the road. The Druze, a small Muslim sect who live in Syria, Israel and Lebanon, have been largely on the sidelines of the Syrian war but have remained loyal to Bashar Al Assad's government. Recently there has been sporadic fighting between the Druze and extremist groups like Al Nusra inside Syria.
In June, Druze in Syria alerted their brethren on the other side of the border that the Israeli army was treating Al Nusra fighters who had been wounded fighting the Druze. On the Golan Heights, Druze attacked the Israeli ambulance convoy with stones, eventually attacking the wounded fighters. When the dust settled, one Nusra fighter was killed and another was unconscious from the blows of the mob.
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu then held a special meeting with Druze leaders to keep the situation under control. Despite the fact that this episode was reported extensively in local and foreign press, the Israeli army continues to deny its links to Al Nusra.
When Hizbollah operative Samir Kuntar was killed in an Israeli targeted assassination in Syria two weeks ago, Tel Aviv’s foothold in the conflict came under renewed inspection. Hafez Al Assad, who ruled Syria before his son, often joked that the Syrian-Israeli border in the Golan Heights was the quietest in the Middle East, but since the outbreak of civil war in 2011, things have steadily heated up.
While Israel has tried to keep its involvement in the Syrian war under wraps, there are several things we know about its participation. First and foremost, Israel has been carrying out air strikes against Hizbollah targets throughout Syria. Ostensibly, these air strikes are tailored to keep Hizbollah from obtaining Syrian chemical weapons.
In the 2006 Lebanon war, the Iranian-backed militia became the only Arab fighting force to unconditionally force Israel to retreat from Arab land occupied in the course of battle. Hizbollah has an extensive rockets cache that can reach any part of Israeli territory, as well as an elaborate network of underground bunkers in southern Lebanon that the Israeli military has never succeeded in fully destroying. It makes sense that Israel would want to keep Assad's chemical weapons out of Hizbollah's hands.
In Syria, Hizbollah has endured heavy losses; it is operating outside its normal strongholds in a country where it doesn’t have the support it enjoys in Lebanon, and the war appears to be wearing the group’s resources thin. In a sign of its dwindling human capital, the group has recently ratcheted up recruitment with promises of cash for new fighters.
For decades, Iran and its proxies have been Israel's primary enemies. Now that those groups are fighting a draining war in Syria, Israel is taking the opportunity to hit them with air strikes. An uneasy alliance between Israel and radical extremist groups fighting in the region – as last summer's episode on the Golan seemed to confirm – is not beyond comprehension.

So much for him being good at anything. He has a severe case, and I'm not joking, of narcissistic personality disorder. He works in cycles, gets more and more wound up until he becomes totally out of control and very abusive and normally sexually abusive, then comes the arse licking stage, then he calms down a bit and pretends it was all an aberration. I have him on ignore as it gets very wearying.

It alsi proves how desperate she is to deflect this debate after I exposed yet more bull from one of her articles

Yes Nems has comentted on israel in the past, so sassy lies

She forgets they made up, lying again

Nems is who you are so stop trying to kid yourself, yes I have had some fights with you Nems and always made up, which sassy eludes to or how she has wished me dead and plenty of other nasty things all water under the bridge until sassy in her desperation tries to start and stir between posters

She certainly made up with sassy

Of course i wont do as sassy did and state the many things she has said about posters as you are already know anyway Nems

I mean you already know what she said about my late father which would eradicate two of my sisters and myself from existing, right?

You both thought it was hilarious

You are also not kidding anyone either, as its clear to me you are Nems

Nice to have you back

Of course you can see for yourself and who was the targets back then with sassy lol
