AFRICANGLOBE - Israel has struck a deal to expel thousands of African migrants to an unnamed African country in return for supplying it with military aid, the Yediot Aharonot newspaper said on Wednesday.
The paper said that, under an agreement in principle, the country will take 1,500-2,000 Eritreans currently in Israel in exchange for military, technological and agricultural aid.
On Monday, a high-ranking Israeli official told the Supreme Court an agreement was about to be reached with the country in question for the deportation of Eritrean immigrants.
While the country was not named, Yediot said the understandings were cobbled together by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s special envoy, Haggai Hadas, after he visited a number of countries in the past two months, including Ghana, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria and Uganda.
Of some 60,000 African immigrants in Israel — more than half of whom are from Eritrea — around 2,000 are being held in a prison camp. They have applied for refugee status, but their requests have yet to be processed.
Rising anti-African sentiments exploded into violence last year when a Tel Aviv protest turned ugly. Jewish rioters smashed African-run shops and property, and there was a worrying number of attacks against innocent African.
In a bid to stop African migrants from entering Israel, the country has erected a barrier along its border with Egypt. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has crediting it for a dramatic fall in the numbers of people crossing from Egypt, with only two “infiltrators” entering this month.
Under Israeli law, asylum seekers can be detained for up to three years.
The deal to ship immigrants to a third country has prompted concern among rights groups, with the Association for Civil Rights in Israel saying their rights must be protected.
“In order to repatriate or resettle refugees or asylum seekers, there are certain standards that have to be met,” ACRI’s Marc Grey told reporters.
“They have to go voluntarily to a third country,” he stressed.
“And that third country needs to provide assurances they will get refugee status.”
There’s one african immigrant I’d like to expel.
I’m guessing it’s not Eritrea.
Why can’t we do the same???? Send our illegal aliens to some African nation and South American nations in exchange for military aid? Send them by boat.
Seeing this, can someone tell me WHY so many Jews here in the USA play a leading role in ASSURING that parasites openly hostile to limited government settle here and import all their relatives?
I don’t get it —this makes them seem bursting with common sense.
And YET...?
Works for me...
I’m Jewish and America should copy what Isreal is doing...But yes too many Jews are open borders oriented with billionaire facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg (liberal) paying for all those Marco Rubio amnesty adverts heard on radio and TV
Shades of Abe Lincoln.
Aside from the turd you referenced, I am happy with the Africans around Dallas. Their pants are not around their knees, they try to speak good English and they appear to be hard working businessmen/businesswomen with good Christian family values. I think most of the ones I have met are from Ethiopia and Nigeria. Normal folks.
I’ve heard it only takes 3 generations to turn a hard working immigrant’s descendants into worthless creeps on welfare. Less than one gen if the progenitors start out as communist activist richardheads, apparently. Hint hint.
I’m guessing the unfortunate thing is this is that the African illegals may be Christians. Hopefully they’ll be resettled to a more or less Christian nation.
The assumption that he's from Africa may turn out to be wrong.
Stop it. There are many many Jews, myself included, who are Comservatives. Getting tired of this old mantra.
I just can't take listening to those lies anymore!
Had I known Ryan was such a panty waist liberal, I would have had a worse time voting for the Mittster.
Good plan.
Stop what Hildy?
The truth
How Jews in Israel feel about illegals is the opposite of how a vast majority feel here.
I’ve always felt more in common with Israelis...even kibbutz raised bohos
Are we because of past bigotry and genocide supposed to stay silent of inconvenient facts?
Trust me....insisting Jews be spared criticism because they are Jewish will in the long run not have the effect you desire
In fact the opposite unfortunately
Any group is open to criticism when merited...or should be
If you see any hillbillies trumpeting amnesty...you let me know where they are
And I’ll do the same for you
That Zukerberg funded Marco Rubio ad drives me crazy to. It is so full of lies because the enforcement will never come after tens of millions get legal status. The history of illegal immigration here is the illegal gets to slide and the enforcement never comes. I know someone who just got full legal status here after sneaking across Mexican border 13 years ago. This person is from El Salvador. Person has had non-deportation status for years, got over that hurdle. But now with full legal status he can now visit back home in El Salvador without fears of being hassled upon re-entry to the USA
Zuckie is funding more pro-amnesty ads than just Rubio’s
Obama and Moochelle both said he was born in Kenya. Kenya is in Africa. I take their word for it.
The only thing we know for sure.... is that we don't know for sure. At least yet. You may be right. I sure would like to know what Mike Zullo said at the Missouri Sheriff's Convention.
