NCF in the media

Last Monday, Ha’aretz published a story about the UN committee of Elimination of Racial Discrimination concerns due to Prawer Plan, and its recommendation to withdrawal the plan:

UN panel urges Israel to shelve ‘racist’ Bedouin relocation plan (Ha’aretz, March 26^th, 2012)

“In January the committee received a report from the Negev Coexistence Forum For Civil Equality that presumably influenced its position.
A representative of the forum said the bill would be deleterious to the Negev Bedouin and called on the government to withdraw the draft law”.
