I strongly support Senator Gavan's comments on the village of Khan al-Ahmar. It is a Bedouin village I visited two weeks ago with my former partner, Ezra Yizhak Nawi, a very strong defender of Palestinian human rights. It is proposed that this village will be demolished illegally. The people there were removed from their homes 70 years ago and they formed this village, which is a pathetic construction. A school has been built on motor car tyres. It is proposed to demolish the village and move the people either to a garbage dump or a sewage facility.
