“The days of ‘48 have come again.” 15 minutes from Tel Aviv, Israel creates a new refugee camp

In the end, 74 people were left homeless, including 54 children, forced to sleep under the open sky during the coldest period of the year. No government social workers arrived with assistance, nor did the state offer any temporary aid. The families gathered whatever belongings they could, pitched tents like so many Palestinian refugees have done in the past, and placed a sign over their land plot that read, “Abu Eid Refugee Camp.”



For years, the Abu Eid family applied for permits to allow them to renovate their homes to accommodate their growing family. But the state zoned their neighborhood as agricultural land and refused their requests (for obvious reasons, applications for renovation and building permits are almost always denied to the Arabs inside Israel). Finally, the state ordered them to seek residency elsewhere because their homes were slated for demolition.




“This place was here before 1948,” he said. “They destroyed it because they said we had no permit. But we can’t get permits because we are ‘48 Arabs. We asked many times and were denied every time. They say we are terrorists. But look around, this is the real terror. Throwing children into the street on the coldest day of the year — that is terror.”

The police supposedly beat an a family of Israeli citizens who were whose home was destroyed while shouting "Go to Gaza" at them during the beating.

Max Blumenthal is a crazed, egotistical, hypocrite, and liar with no credibility whatsoever. He is another one of those "as a Jew" folks who think that means something. He feeds on the publicity he gets by saying "I am a Jew and I hate Israel."


Also, what about the 9000 refugees from Gush Katif that are still living in trailer parks?

Some attempts at research of finding the demolished homes.

Nothing interesting seeing as found nothing, but a littler further research led me to this...

The Lyd thing tripped me out and I thought I was onto something fishy when I saw that but then I saw Lod later and chalked up Lyd to Arabic pronunciation. Anyways...


Members of the Abu Eid family told Ma'an that they had "paid rent for decades to a state-owned company to use the land, but [were] only allowed to build up to 100 square meter homes since it was zoned as agricultural ... As the family grew, it requested but was declined approval to expand their houses." After they lost a series of appeals, the family was told by the local court to expect demolitions.


Rented land. State owned and zoning? Stupid, but the TRUTH is ABSOLUTE.

Max Blumenthal steals a story and doesn't care to tell the whole story...

Video of Hamza Abu Eid...

Notice how he looks up and left for the story when he was at school, but for the story of when he came to his house, he looks up and right, aka lying about something.

You're seriously wanting people to feel sorry for former occupiers of Gaza who were removed from stolen lands? Plenty of folks in the US live in trailers parks, I don't find that a tragedy.

And please, Blumenthal has FAR more credibility on this subject than you do.

New Forum members hate Max Blumenthal..

Sorry if the truth is absolute to me, sorry that you are a moron who allows everything everyone tells you on here that you agree with to go by and accept as the absolute truth.

The fact of the matter is that Max Blumenthal doesn't ever say in his article anything about it being rented land, he was a wolf and you are a sheep and you were slaughtered with your own stupidity. Challenge my CLAIMS and stop being a SHEEP.

Good a place as any for this.

You do realize that calling names is against forum guidelines, don't you?

And you failed to notice the rest of the article you posted, which showed how Israel has had an ongoing campaign of demolishing homes for any reason whatsoever, making it impossible for Arabs to live on the land that they've been on prior to 1948. That, and your ridiculous claim to know that the guy in the video was lying b/c of how he was looking are hardly "absolute" truth. You had a conclusion already, and you desperately looked for any supporting evidence, no matter how weak.

You can take your "sheep" rhetoric and cram it up your ass, your argument was one of the lamest I've seen in a long time. Now go be a good boy, and scour the 'net for Zionist propaganda that justifies kicking families out into the street and destroying everything they have.
