Where is the Bedouin Intifada?

19. The settlements will indeed be Jewish only...

Much, if not most of the relevant land is "owned" by the JNF, and the policy of the JNF is not to sell or lease to Arabs, nor does it permit its lessees to sublet to Arabs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jnf#Jewish_ownership_clause

The JNF stipulates that only Jews can buy, mortgage or lease JNF land. Article 23 of the JNF lease states that the lessee must pay compensation to the JNF if this stipulation is violated.

Blueprint Negev is a Jewish National Fund (JNF) project to develop the Negev region of Israel.
The project aims to increase the Negev's population by 250,000 new residents, improving transportation infrastructure, adding businesses and employment opportunities, preserving water resources and protecting its environment.[1] The project aims to reduce the strain on Israel's coastal strip, which is suffering from overdevelopment and overpopulation. 92% of Israel's population resides on 40% of Israel's land, while only 8% of its population lives in the Negev, which represents 60% of Israel's landmass.

There is some doubt over whether legally the JNF will be able to refuse Arab buyers given recent Israeli supreme court decisions that have said it is unlawful to refuse Arab tenders for the sale of any ILA-administered land. However, it is likely that the JNF will do its best to get around this by marketing land exclusively to Jews, and doing its best to fuck off Arab buyers whenever one of them actually has the temerity to put in an offer for a particular block.

Technically, it is possible for an Arab buyer to approach a subsequent purchaser of settlement land, if not the JNF itself. However, due to the passage of the reception committee law, it is possible for a community to elect not to allow people of a particular character to reside in a particular community, meaning that it is likely that Arabs would be prevented from living in these towns anyway.

"There's nothing stopping other Israeli bedouins or any other Israeli Arabs from moving into those areas with - OMG - the Jews. Housing costs in the Negev will surely be cheaper than up north in Israel where the cost is astronomical. I'd be shocked if the non-Jews of Israel don't take advantage of moving down south where housing costs are better."

This statement is categorically false. There is plenty to stop bedouins or any other non-Jews from being permitted to buy or move into these areas.
