    Israel says it will deport South Sudanese

    JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel's Interior Ministry says thousands of people from South Sudan must leave or face deportation.

    Spokeswoman Sabine Haddad says since the Southern Sudanese have an independent state, they will no longer be given protected status in Israel. The country gained independence from Sudan in July.

    Some 7,000 South Sudanese are believed to be in Israel, part of a larger influx of African migrants who have poured into the country in recent years. Some are refugees, while others are seeking employment.

    Israel is trying to stop the wave of arrivals, building a barrier along the border with Egypt and pledging tough punishments to people who assist them.

    Speaking Tuesday, Haddad said the South Sudanese will be offered voluntary deportation and around $1,300. After March 31, Haddad says they will be deported.

      Illegals should leave or face deportation... That's what I want our limp-wristed government to say.

      Every country does that sometimes to immigrants. Israel sheltered the Sudanese until now that Southern Sudan has an independent state, which is more than any country in the region was willing to do. I hope those guys return home safe and sound.

      a small country cannot take in africa's millions. even a big country like france can't afford that. wish the us would start telling illegal aliens to go home. but here they get on welfare, get to vote and free education and medical care . its nice they consider the us and israel as desirable and safe places and an escape from their crud awful countries but nobody can absorb that many dirt poor, illiterate, disease ridden, unskilled peasants. soon it would be just like where they came from.

      They can ask for help and collaboration with the west to develop their new country…instead of running out.

      @ " Name-Changed .... " On this comical notion of boycotting Israel, Israeli's and Israeli products Did you know that computers these days are just LOADED with advanced Israeli technology ? Doesn't that scare the crap from you ? Think of the danger, the risk, the possibilities...... at this very moment, as you work over your keyboard, secret invisible Israeli cooties might be wafting out, like an undetectable mist, crawling ALL over you, getting in your pores, your blood stream, taking over your MIND ..... O,,, well, On second thought, maybe you don't have to worry so much. ... On a more serious note, I travel constantly and everywhere I go the grocery stores are stocking Israeli goods and they are wonderful, high quality, great prices, and more every week. I am eating a delicious Israeli Tea Bisquit right now, yum yum !! In my travels, I always share these goods and encourage everyone to try them, I buy the Tea Bisquits by the case ..... must be why the grocery store people tell me the stuff just flies off the shelf !!! And the Chicken Soup ..... is superb, try it, you'll never go back, there are these sort of snack puffs made from p-nuts ... fantastic !!! Wow, I'm hungry, I must hit the next grocery store and stock up on great high quality Israeli food, right way !!!

      How can the Jewish state state deport refugees when American jews are first in line calling for maasive third world immigration into the U.S.?
    • Hadi Akmal  •  3 mths ago
      The South Sudanese immigrants should just start a settlement there.

      Since the Ashkenazi Jews can migrate to Palestine and start the land grabbing I think the immigrants should just follow the Zionist good example.

      Ah yes I forgot the South Sudanese already have a country. Well the South Sudanese can claimed the settlement as "undisputed capital" of South Sudan.

      While they there, they can also build settlement, setup checkpoint, build 20 feet wall, and also Israelis is required a permit to build in Israel and tell the world that Israel refuse to negotiate peace.

      Lets see how Israel gonna react.

      p/s: Please turn on yours sarcasm meter.

      Before anyone yells racism, remember that the Israelis risked life and limb to BRING Ethiopian Jews to Israel when they were threatened. No one is saying that they should leave.

      Israel is exercising humane and more than fair treatment toward these illegal immigrants. Israel cannot support these people and it is not their responsibility to do so.
      These 7,000 illegal Sudanese (mostly men) are NOT entitled to Israeli Citizenship as they are not of Jewish parentage, period.
      Let's not forget, Israel is a JEWISH State, founded, declared and legally recognized in 1948 as a State and a Jewish Homeland.
      Israel is the size of New Jersey! 7,000 illegal immigrants will only multiply over time. This will have a negative consequences on not only the Jewish culture, but the balance of a Jewish majority which is the very basis for the State of Israel.
      Israel is being kind and generous by offering them $1,300.00 with the option to leave voluntarily.

      Israel is the most racist country in the world, they are going to keep buiding barriers until they are living in a box...they dont want anyone to come to into israel or live there, or work there..they just want the free handouts from america so they can keep bullying their neighbors with force...I cant for israel to finally get what they have coming to them, maybe then they will treat the rest of the world with some respect..
