‘Help the Bedouin Go Back Where They Came From’ Says Rabbi Lior
Arutz Sheva ^ | 26/4/11 | Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

Posted on 07/22/2011 8:45:56 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

"Israel should help pay the Bedouin to move back where they came from – Libya and Saudi Arabia", said Kiryat Arba-Hevron Rabbi Dov Lior at the fourth annual Ramle Conference Tuesday.

"There is land available in Saudi Arabia and Libya. They have enough land. But if we leave them here, where they work against the People and State of Israel, we are creating a problem with no solution”, according to Rabbi Lior.

The Bedouin population in the Negev, aided by Israel’s relaxation of laws against polygamy in favor of Bedouins, has shot up from slightly more than 10,000 in 1948 to well over 125,000 today. Bedouin youth traditionally served in the IDF until recent years, when increasingly larger numbers of potential soldiers have begun rejecting volunteering for the army, preferring to cooperate with Hamas terrorists to steal and smuggle weapons and to attack Jews.

A 10-year-old survey reported that 42 percent of the Bedouin reject Israel’s right to exist, and the number has grown since then.

Rabbi Lior said he favors a humanitarian solution which includes giving the Bedouin financial aid to relocate, unlike the government expulsion of Jews from Gush Katif in Gaza nearly five years ago. The Katif expulsion victims sued the government through the High Court, which advised officials that the aid offered to them did not even come close to the sum that would satisfy the Israeli Basic Law’s definition of Human Rights and Dignity.

Great minds think alike. I'd also say permit polygamy within Israel for all Jews, not just Bedouins, and have a rabbinical court formally nullify Rabeinu Gershon's decree against it. And offer financial aid to all Arabs to leave, not just Bedouins; something comparable to the immigration package offered Jews.

It’s funny - everywhere there are Muslims, there is trouble.

Wonder if there is a correlation?

I thought the bedouins in Israel were pretty decent folk.

It’s the arabs from Eqypt/Syrida/Jordan that are the problem.

Used to be. I thought the worst they were doing was land and livestock theft in the Negev and the Galil, but apparently they’ve moved on to the hard stuff.

Everywhere Muslims have EVER BEEN there is trouble.

Ihsmael’s people are a pain in the ass.

As it is written in Genesis: And he shall be a wild ass of a man: his hand shall be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the face of all his brethren.’

Yup, sounds about right.

all arabs should go to their ancestral homeland in Saudi. There, their brother Muslims will give them the hospitality for which they’re famous.

No. Diversity is our strength. The federal government has mandated it this way.

Whenever Muslims get close to success in expelling or annihilating all Christians and Jews in their midst, they soon resort to killing each other for not being Islamic enough.

Since Genesis 4, the Torah has taught the people of Israel the need to maintain and respect a vital culture of pastoral nomadic tribes. The sooner they establish one, the sooner they can actually begin to observe Shemitta as originally intended in Ex. 23:11.

Yes, but in Saudi arabia. Non-jewish arabs need to leave the land God promised to abraham.

Outsiders may be bringing the problem political philosophies and political agendas to the youth among the Bedouin of the Negev, but the duo of population growth and economics are being exploited to help push the Bedouin youth into those agendas.

I am not justifying what’s happening, nor am I “blaming” the economic prospects of the Bedouin youth. It’s just a fact of life that it is being used as a hook.
