Rubber Bullet.. Cause the child's injury Mohamed Tamimi, severely injured, and bash his skull.

The Tamimi masterclass on media manipulation - Blogs - Jerusalem Post

It is thus hardly surprising that by now, the Tamimis apparently feel free to tell the media any story that suits their purpose. Their complete disregard for facts and the ease with which they fabricate a story to bolster their image as righteous defenders of a noble cause was on full display in the wake of the widely covered recent attempt of an IDF soldier to arrest Bassem Tamimi’s 12-year-old son Mohammad (also known as Abu Yazan) for stone-throwing. As the viral video-clip showed, the fully armed soldier was beaten and bitten by a group consisting mostly of women and girls – prominently including Bassem Tamimi’s daughter Ahed – and the soldier ultimately released the boy from his hold and retreated.

Another Pallywierd disaster.

With the Islamic terrorists in Gaza'istan and Fatah'istan being ignored for calls to Moslem Ragefest 2017, I suppose they thought another staged event starring Shirley Temper would help kick start:

Intifada - The New Beginning.

What a silly waste of time.

Israeli court sentences 68-year-old Bedouin citizen to 10 months in prison – for trespassing his own land

The Bedouin village of Al Araqib in the southern Negev has been demolished for well over 100 times. Its ethnic cleansing follows a similar pattern and logic to that of other Bedouin villages such as Umm Al Hiran, which saw violent ethnic cleansing operations this year, also involving extrajudicial execution of an Israeli Bedouin citizen.

Now the state reaches new heights of Kafkaesque madness: Sheikh Saih Abu Madiam, 68, is sentenced to 10 months in prison, 5 additional months of conditional imprisonment, as well as a fine of 36,000 Shekels (over $10,000), as Haaretz reported (Hebrew).

The offense: Abu Madiam has supposedly trespassed state land – which he claims is his own.

They are unrecognized, because the state expropriated the lands, and refused to recognize the dwelling places of people who have been there long before the state was established.

The Palestinian Authority Security Forces: Whose Security?

From the outset, the Palestinian Authority (PA) security establishment has failed to protect Palestinians from the main source of their insecurity: The Israeli military occupation. Nor has it empowered Palestinians to resist that occupation. Instead, the PA has contributed to a situation in which the Palestinian struggle for freedom has itself been criminalized. Rather than recognize resistance as a natural response to institutionalized oppression, the PA, in tandem with Israel and the international community, characterizes resistance as “insurgency” or “instability.” Such rhetoric, which favors Israeli security at the expense of Palestinians, echoes discourse surrounding the “war on terror” and criminalizes all forms of resistance. 1

This dynamic can be traced back to the 1993 Oslo Accords but it has been galvanized over the last decade through the PA’s evolution as a donor-driven state that espouses neoliberal policies. The donor-driven reform of the security sector has been the lynchpin of the PA’s post-2007 state building project. The enhanced effectiveness of the PA’s security forces as a result of massive donor investment has in turn created additional ways of protecting the Israeli occupier, thus creating spaces that are “securitized” within which the occupier can move freely in the execution of its colonial project.

Noura Erakat: Israel’s Extrajudicial Assassinations

Israel has used extrajudicial assassinations – the taking of someone’s life without a trial to determine guilt – for decades.
3 The government first took public responsibility for these assassinations during the Al-Aqsa Intifada, specifically in November 2000, when it termed them “targeted killings” and created a legal justification for their use against Palestinians. 4

Israel argued that it is engaged in an “armed conflict short of war” with Palestinians in order to define the conflict as one against “terrorists.” This move has permitted Israel to use military force, defined by law, without affording Palestinians the status of combatants or soldiers. Instead, Palestinian use of force is regarded as terroristic regardless of whether it targets civilians or military installations; in effect, all Palestinian use of force is considered illegitimate and illegal.

Israel thus created a legal framework whereby Palestinians do not have the right to use force but Israelis have the right to kill them even when they are posing no threat and without due process. This framework aims to incapacitate any kind of resistance from Palestinians and expand Israel’s right to use force. It is within this context that Israel also changed the terminology of the violence: “assassination” became “targeted killing.”

This practice is illegal, as the arbitrary taking of a life denies the suspect the right to a fair trial as guaranteed by Article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. International law also restricts the use of intentional lethal force “during law enforcement operations to situations necessary to protect life” – that is, police can only shoot to kill when it is clear that the suspect is going to kill someone and there is no other means to detain them. In regard to an occupation, the law is even clearer. Because an occupying power is no longer at war, its force is limited to law enforcement authority. This means that the occupying power cannot use lethal force as a measure of first resort.

Israeli court sentences 68-year-old Bedouin citizen to 10 months in prison – for trespassing his own land

This is entirely an Israeli domestic concern and not part of the Arab/Israeli conflict.

The land in question does not in any way appear to be "his own". The land is not, and never has been privately owned, but is and was owned by the State.

The question, then, is whether or not the families in question had an entitlement to cultivate the land. The courts ruled that they did not and further that they had an obligation to register the land and chose not to.

The main conflict, as I understand it, rests on whether the land was mawat (uncultivated) or miri (cultivated and leased from the sovereign). The court accepted documented proof that the land was not cultivated and therefore established that whether the land was mawat or miri was immaterial since neither imparts private ownership and the lack of cultivation reverts the land to its sovereign.

The Bedouin families appear to be squatters attempting to lay legal claim to land that they have no right to.

It's not at all surprising that the Arabs-Moslems masquerading as "Pal'istanians" would place blame on others for their failures and ineptitudes. Even with a dedicated, UN welfare agency assigned to their exclusive use, abuse and theft, they still can't build a functioning society.

If the land was state land under ottoman ownership, that land was ceded to the state of Palestine. So, how does Israel claim that as Israeli state land. Where is the treaty ceding that land to Israel?

Really? So, your concern over the Bedouin village is not that it has been torn down 120 times, but that it should be the Arab Palestinians tearing it down and not the Israelis?

And, of course, the territory was renounced, not ceded.
