The Israeli "Peace Process" on the Ground

From Rachelle Marshall’s “Israel's Current Demand: Most of the West Bank,” Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, March-April 2012
On Jan. 23, 100 Bedouins in Anata, northeast of Jerusalem, were forced into the cold outdoors just before midnight, when army bulldozers arrived without warning and demolished their entire community, including all their personal belongings. Many of the displaced were children and babies. On Jan. 25 near Hebron, Mohammed Abu Qbeita was building a house on his own land when soldiers came and ordered him to stop. When he refused to move, an army officer truck knocked him to the ground and drove a trailers attached to a tractor over his legs, crushing one of them.
 No one is safe from the random cruelty.
