(IsraelNN.com) Gazan Arabs who were employed by Israeli farmers in Gush Katif until the 2005 eviction of Jews from the region are seeking ways to sue their former employers for "wrongful dismissal" and other employee benefits.
The uprooting of the vibrant Jewish communities and economy of Gush Katif during the Sharon Administration's "disengagement" from Gaza led to the instant unemployment of about 10,000 people who worked in agriculture and related industries, including 5,000 Arabs from the Palestinian Authority. As of June 2008, over 50 percent of former Gush Katif residents still find themselves unemployed.
According to an Israel TV Channel One report, the SELA Administration, which was set up to assist Disengagement evictees to rebuild their lives and communities, told former Gush Katif residents, employers and businessmen that the Arab claims are "your problem."
The government has claimed that compensation funds paid to former Gush Katif residents included a fund to be used for former employees of the Jewish industries kicked out of Gaza. However, compensation payments thus far have not covered the basic needs of the evictees themselves, Gush Katif activists say.
Yossi Schwartz, a former owner of a clothing factory interviewed for the Channel One report, said that former workers' claims could be more than one million NIS in his case alone. Mr. Schwartz, like so many of his former neighbors, is still unemployed.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
The Arabs have never lacked for sheer chutzpah.
LOL. And they’re serious.
This is forcing a talented, productive citizen to be come a leech in self-defense. He daren't have two shekels of his own to rub together.
PA worker to his jihadist brother:
“Murder all the Jews you want, just not the ones I work for—got bills to pay you know.”

West Bank and Gaza are not now and will never be independent. Articles like this only demonstrate what is already only obvious.
Granted, Gaza has a seacoast. If Gazans were French or Italians you’d have a thriving colony there, and people would be arriving in droves. But they aren’t, they are arabs and absolutely no one wants to live among them, no one wants to visit them, no one wants to do business with them, and its hard to imagine anyone ever will.
It gets to be like beating a drum, but Gaza and the West Bank are doomed to be what they are, lawless enclaves ruled by outlaws. Separate from Israel, and separate from their mother countries Jordan and Egypt they have no future at all.
Here’s a “peace plan” that thinking outside the box.
Depose the Gang of Saud (they can retire to their estates on the Riviera) and return the kingdom to its rightful owners: the Hashemite clan.
Make Jordan the Palestinian state.
Of course wherever the Palestinians go they will turn into a crap hole, but at least Israel will have defensible borders.
Everybody wins.
Pay them in lead..
Why do these people remind me of our inner city folks???
Crank up a Cat. Pay em bountifully
For lack of a better word, “Sharptonism..
Give them a 10 second head start..
