Israeli Arabs Protest Against Housing and Employment Situation

Lesson Brief NRG
On April 28th, NRG reported on Arab Israeli's protesting the destruction of their homes that have been ruled illegal by Israeli courts. Theט claim that they are not being given means of obtaining legal housing permits and blame the government for the lack of response to initiatives by the heads of local authorities to deal with the matter. A "truce" was called for by Knesset Member Zohir Bahlol during which Israel would not destroy more houses until the end of some constructive litigation was reached. This set deals with some legal, social, and economic issues in Israel. Watch out for the phrase תכנית מתאר - "an overall plan, or master plan" and the word שטח שיפוט - "jurisdiction".
