The Prawer plan seems to be dead in the water:
Quote:
Israel is scrapping a controversial draft law to relocate thousands of Bedouin residents of the Negev desert, an official said Thursday.
Benny Begin, tasked with implementing the so-called Prawer Plan, said he had recommended to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "end the debate on the law" in parliament.
"The prime minister accepted this proposal," he said at a Tel Aviv press conference, days after it emerged the governing coalition was divided on the proposed legislation.
