CAIRO (Marwa Awad)
Israel plans to allocate the money over the next two years, with the vast majority of it, $125 million, to be used for security expenses and most of the rest for housing construction, army radio said, basing its report on the 2009-2010 budget that has yet to be approved by the Knesset.
Razing shacks and shelters to the ground is a familiar sight to Palestinian Bedouins of the West Bank, dozens of whom have been displaced as Israeli bulldozers destroy homes and livelihoods in a matter of minutes, putting in force the Israeli government's plans to expand existing settlements at the expense of Palestinian land.

Transcripts - Larry King Live June 21 2009 - "I remember when Israel went into Lebanon. President Reagan was in office."
ROGER COHEN, "NEW YORK TIMES" (via telephone): Well, extreme tension in the city, Wolf. I was in the downtown area around Revolution Street; clusters of militia and of police in camouflage, in green uniforms, in black uniforms, in plain clothes, many of them wielding clubs, some with rifles.
And the killings of at least a dozen people the previous night kept most people off the street. But you can feel there are protesters as soon as it gets dark. The cry of "Allahu Akbar" God is Great goes-up.
"PAUL WOLFOWITZ, (now a) VISITING SCHOLAR, AMERICAN ENTERPRISE INSTITUTE"
GERGEN: ... I remember when Israel went into Lebanon. President Reagan was in office. And there was a huge pressure on him not to say anything about the Israeli presence there.
And then those pictures came back from Beirut. And Mike Beaver took those pictures in the President Reagan and showed him these kids were being shut up and the president sort of said, "I cannot say something."
And he called the Israeli prime minister and said call it off and it ended. But there are times when even they're best friends like Israel, the United States has to stand up for a more humane set of principles.

Al Arabiya's Tehran bureau closed indefinitely
![]() | |
Nabil Khatib said Al Arabiya would continue reporting on Iran even after its Tehran bureau was closed (File) |
DUBAI (Courtney C. Radsch)
"The authorities accuse Al Arabiya of diffusing news that is not necessarily fair from their point of view," said channel's executive news manager, Nabil al-Khatib, adding that the channel had not done anything that was in violation of Iranian law and had appealed to the government about what it saw as a campaign against the station in the official Iranian media.
The move followed a decision by the Ministry of Information to shut Al Arabiya's Tehran bureau last Sunday for a week just as the protests over disputed presidential elections were getting underway.
Khatib said Al Arabiya had hoped the Iranian authorities would reverse their decision last Sunday to close the bureau for a week and was “surprised” when he was informed that it would be closed indefinitely.
Nonetheless, he said, the station would continue covering Iran from its headquarters in Dubai.
“It makes the original reporting, using our resources in Tehran, being close to the real story, impossible and we will need to continue covering Iran,” he said, explaining that. Like other foreing media barred from reporting in Iran, the station would have to rely on its sources inside Iran and rely on eye witnesses as well as videos posted online by Iranian activists and journalists.
Iran’s decision came as officials gave the BBC’s Tehran bureau chief 24 hours to leave the country after he was accused of "supporting the rioters."
