I’m part of a project called Collapsing Scenery. Our song and video ‘Sisyphus of the Negev’ from a few years back might be of interest to you as they relate to the harrowing experiences of the Bedouin villagers of Al-Arakib, and their daily resilience and resistance.

Thank you for the post, this is an extremely underreported aspect of the Israeli and Palestinian national stories as it doesn’t fit neatly into the divides of occupied/unoccupied. The untenable situation of Arab Palestinian citizens of Israel in general and the Bedouins in particular need far more consideration than most pundits are willing to give before forming their underbaked opinions on long term solutions.

Thank you for reporting this. I have been thinking of the Bedouins since reading of the young girl's injuries in the Iran attack. Such a tragic story! I hope a future Israeli government I have no hope for the current one) can work with Bedouin people to settle the issue in a fair and sustainable manner.
