AN ethnic cleansing campaign underway in Palestine is not driven by rogue extremists but is led and sponsored by the Israeli state, a major new report has said.
The 150-page Amnesty International report, published on Wednesday, argues that Israeli authorities are “committing the crime against humanity of forcible transfer”, specifically through a “state-driven campaign of ethnic cleansing targeting Palestinian Bedouin and herding communities in Area C of the occupied West Bank [which includes about 60% of the total area]”.
