Israeli home demolition in Negev 'leaves 6 homeless'
http://www.maannews.net/eng/ViewDetails.aspx?ID=698291BEERSHEBA (Ma'an) -- Israeli bulldozers on Sunday demolished a house in a Bedouin village in the Negev desert, witnesses said.
Locals told Ma'an that Israeli bulldozers demolished the house in the unrecognized village of Wadi al-Niam under the pretext that it was built without a license.
The demolition left a woman and five children homeless, the head of of Wadi al-Niam's village council said.
"These children are like orphans -- their mom is raising them alone because their father is in jail," Labbad Abu Afasha told Ma'an.

The apartheid picnic doesn't stop, day or night, in destroying the futures of ahem... outsiders. But on a brighter note there is one less Bedouin home in the way of the new Illegal settlement sure to pop up soon: along with all the necessary permits.
