DO NOT LET PRAWER PASS – STOP THE DISPLACEMENT & ISOLATION OF OVER 70,000 INDIGENOUS BEDOUIN IN THE NEGEV/NAQAB
Stop Prawer Plan: Day of Action November 30th (from the Palestinian BDS movement website):
"On 24th of June, the Israeli
Knesset approved the Prawer-Begin plan, which if implemented will result
in the destruction of more than 35 unrecognized villages in Al-Naqab
and the forced expulsion and confinement of more than 70,000 Palestinian
Bedouins. The Prawer plan is the largest Israeli land-grab since 1948.
It epitomizes the nature of Israel’s policy; Israeli-Jewish demographic
expansion and Palestinian-Arab demographic containment."
The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement has put out a call
for a Day of Rage and action against the Prawer Plan and the Jewish
National Fund, a funder and leader in the effort. The Stop the JNF
Campaign supports the call for a Day of Action on November 30th by calling for TWO DAYS OF ACTION on November 29th, called Black Friday in the U.S., and November 30th.
JOIN US IN HANDING OUT THE ATTACHED FLYER TO EDUCATE PEOPLE
ABOUT THE ROLE OF THE JEWISH NATIONAL FUND – U.S. IN THE FORCED
DISPLACEMENT OF THE BEDOUIN AND ATTEMPT TO SETTLE THEIR LAND BY
RELOCATING OVER 250,000 JEWS FROM THE UNITED STATES. ENCOURAGE THEM TO
TAKE ACTION BY SIGNING THE ATTACHED PETITION.
On this day, there are so many reasons to rage.
The
celebration of genocide and colonization of Indigenous people in the
United States with "Thanksgiving," the tremendous and wasteful
consumption of capitalism on "Black Friday,"
and the threat of the continued removal of the Indigenous people of
Palestine with the imminent Prawer Plan. Our rage can immobilize us or
cause us to feel powerless. Or it can bring us together to organize
towards the world we want to build and against the violence, oppression
and exploitation that do so much harm.
Please join us on November 29th and 30th to stop the Prawer Plan.

Petition. Please use these resources in your actions on November 29th and 30th!

Stay tuned for a phone call in December briefing about the
relationship between Blueprint Negev and the JNF, a fact sheet on that
topic, a PowerPoint presentation for educational use, and a postcard to
the IRS that calls for the revoking of the charitable status of the JNF
based on its activity in the Negev.
