Last week, the Ra'am party presented draft legislation that would approve the connection of tens of thousands of illegally built homes in the Arab sector to the electricity grid. > Image
According to @GLZRadio, the gov’t is seeking to make a deal with the Joint List: in return for the coalition passing the “Electricity Law” in the Knesset’s next session, the Joint List will either vote in favor of the state budget, or absent itself from the vote. >
This is not a new law; it was first passed in the 90s as a ‘temporary order’ for two years. It was extended on an annual basis, creating de facto approval of thousands of illegal construction projects in the Arab sector; but in 2007, the law was finally allowed to lapse. >

¹According to our friends @NGOmonitor, the UK government has given almost $13 million to the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), an NGO that works tirelessly to undermine Israel’s legal rights in Judea & Samaria. Image
²As part of #BattleforAreaC, PA is coordinating a legal campaign against Israel. PA creates facts on the grounds, builds without permits on lands under Israeli jurisdiction, then drags out & exploits the Israeli legal process to prevent demolition orders from being executed. Image
³But in order to wage a legal battle, you need $$$. That’s where NGOs such as @NRC_Norway
come in. Under guise of “humanitarian aid”, these NGOs provide legal counselling & assistance to Palestinians squatting on Israeli state lands, in defiance of int'l law & Oslo Accords.

Why does Abu Talul, a Bedouin town in the Negev recognized by the Israeli gov't in 2006, still look like an illegal squatters’ camp?

▶️🔊 Find out in this short video.
In a comprehensive report in 2017, Regavim outlined a Plan for the Regulation of Bedouin settlement in the Negev. Read it here: bit.ly/35YWI8J
#ProtectingTheNegev

Solutions include: >
A) To utilize land resources better in already-existing communities. Ridiculous that sometimes ⅔ of legal settlements are empty because of land ownership claims! Disputes must be solved by reducing compensation packages & initiating ownership clarification procedures in court.

#BattleforAreaC in numbers
:::::

Illegal Palestinian structures, built in Area C without permits:
2009: 29,784
2018: 58,435
2020: 65,572 Image
According to official data, every year Civil Administration tears down between 200-250 structures. So even if you hear of the odd demolition, it’s like a drop in the sea. PA is carrying out mass, rapid, illegal construction, changing the map by creating facts on the ground.
Looking at the number of illegal structures doesn’t tell the full story, however. While Israeli-Jewish construction is often ‘upwards’, the Palestinian-Arab construction tends to be ‘sideways’ – in other words, spreading over huge swathes of land.

Today, we held a field tour in Judea & Samaria with Likud MK @ArielKallner. The tour focused on the PA’s main project in the last decade: land grabs in Area C. We discussed challenges in #BattleforAreaC, particularly the #EU🇪🇺 backing of the PA’s illegal efforts.
After the tour, MK Kallner said: “The mass take-over of Area C is planned, and purposely carried out by people who want this land for themselves. >
> As someone who has pledged to stand up for the Land of #Israel, I cannot accept this reality, and the State should not accept it either. The Civil Administration is incapable of doing its job. We have to act with full strength – this is a national mission.” >

Key numbers in the #BattleforAreaC:

🟥In 2009, Jews populated 47,000 dunams of built-up space in Area C compared to 46,000 for Palestinians.

🟥By 2019, Palestinians held 79,000 dunams compared to 57,000 inhabited by Jews. Image
We are losing the battle. Time to wake up & stop the incessant, EU-funded, PA-orchestrated push to grab more & more Israeli land! ⏰

"But the Palestinians have nowhere to build!"
Wrong! ❌

We mapped out over 60% of available land reserves in Areas A & B, which are under #PA control. They can build there without Israeli permits. Image
