Film: From Al-Araqib to Susiya: Forced displacement on both sides of the Green Line

15/05/2013

In a new film, Adalah captures the stories of two Palestinian villages, Al-Araqib and Susiya – one in Israel, one in the West Bank – that share a single story of struggle against forced displacement.

The film documents a journey between the two villages and two communities, whose very existence on their land is under threat today. It also demonstrates how, in the face of a single Israeli policy to forcibly displace Palestinians on both sides of the Green Line, the people are drawing on deep reserves of courage and steadfastness to remain on their land.

Take Action against the Prawer Plan

The Israeli government is trying to legitimize the forced displacement of Palestinian Bedouin citizens of Israel living in the Naqab (Negev) through the Prawer-Begin Plan, currently put before the Knesset.

Join Adalah and the Arab Bedouin community in opposing this racist plan, which threatens to displace up to 70,000 people from their land, in the largest single confiscation of Palestinian-owned land since the establishment of Israel.

Sign a petition to halt the plan that will be delivered to members of the Israeli government and Knesset as well as international policy-makers on the occasion of the bill’s first reading.
