| Israeli border policewoman arrested on suspicion of shooting Palestinian for fun | | Josh Breiner - Haaretz - The incident occurred in May, when the policewoman, who is around 20, was on duty near the Al-Zaim checkpoint outside of Jerusalem. She allegedly shot the Palestinian for no apparent reason and seriously wounded him. The policewoman was arrested along with four colleagues who were with her at the time of the incident. At Monday`s bail hearing at the Jerusalem Magistrate`s Court, Judge Elad Persky said the suspect apparently shot the Palestinian "as a dubious form of entertainment." He ordered her held for another three days, while the other suspects were released with restrictions. One of the policemen in the unit had filmed the incident on his phone. [bz] | 16/10/2018 |

"Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman’s recent op-ed in the Jerusalem
Post – designed to whitewash the war crime of the destruction of an
entire Palestinian community in the occupied West Bank – is riddled
with lies and distortions...contrary to Liberman’s hollow claims,
this is a question neither of “the rule of law” nor of “the well-
being of these people themselves.” The rule of law, in any
meaningful sense, has been absent from Palestinians’ lives in the
occupied territories ever since 1967." ca | 13/10/2018 |

Mondoweiss
"A tiny Palestinian Bedouin town located in the West Bank hills outside
of Jerusalem is bracing for an impending eviction to make way for plans
to expand an Israeli settlement. The case reached its endpoint on
Monday when the deadline ordered by Israel’s high court expired on the
community of Khan al-Ahmar to vacate and demolish their own homes and
an elementary school.The ruling comes after a lengthy court battle that
began in 2009, where Israel seeks to transfer the Bedouin community to
a nearby reservation of apartment units adjacent to an unofficial
municipal dump. For the Bedouins, the move would devastate the herding
community, making it impossible to bring along their main source of
income, their grazing animals." ca
