British Jewish groups slam Bedouin settlement bill ahead of discussions | | Edna Adato and `Israel Hayom` Staff - "As Jewish representative
organizations speaking on behalf of a large cross-section of Anglo-
Jewry, committed to the State of Israel and our Jewish heritage, we
believe advancing this bill in the Knesset defies the Jewish religious

justice," the groups wrote.
The British groups as well as Israeli rights organizations say the
Bedouin settlement law would unjustly displace thousands, opposing to
what they called the "expulsion of 40,000 Bedouin," and said they
supported Bedouin rights to their "ancestral lands."
In addition, the groups demanded that the government work closely with
the Bedouin community to devise a plan to regulate settlement, and
called for the recognition of "all existing villages." bz
