Israeli ID order set to criminalize Palestinians

Thousands of Palestinians living in the West Bank may soon be evicted or face criminal charges by Israeli authorities, the Israeli daily Haaretz has said.

An amendment to an Israeli military order on "preventing infiltration" could soon stipulate that residents of the West Bank without ID cards may now need one issued by the occupying authorities.

Anyone without such a document could either be expelled or jailed.

Haaretz said the new order would likely be used first against Palestinians in the West Bank with Gaza ID cards and the foreign spouses of Palestinians living in the territory.

Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland explains.

  1. This is just insane, to say the least. Just as Norman Finkelstein implies with his refusal to accept the Holocaust card - it is sad that in this light, the people who have been victimized by cleansing and genocide, are themselves committing that grave error in this day and age, when they should have the most compassion. Did Nelson Mandela encourage the blacks of South Africa to inflict the same derogatory behavior on those that had imprisoned him for 27 years? Do descendent's of slaves in the US want to enslave the Caucasian population?

    As another, just posted Al Jazeera report mentions (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdb9SY8WrPY), this is nothing less the the start of ethnic cleansing.
