    En pleine discussion sur le projet de #loi_immigration, le Sénat a non seulement supprimé l’aide médicale d’Etat (#AME) pour les #étrangers extra-européens mais adopté le 8 novembre deux amendements qui leur imposent cinq ans de « présence stable et régulière » en France pour percevoir l’allocation personnalisée au logement et les allocations familiales, mais aussi la prestation de compensation du handicap et le droit au logement opposable.

    L’économiste Antoine Math, chercheur à l’Institut de recherches économiques et sociales (Ires) et spécialiste des politiques sociales, revient sur ces décisions « qui viennent de très loin »...

    • Depuis des années, que ce soit dans les programmes des partis de droite et d’extrême droite ou dans certaines politiques publiques, notamment imposées à Mayotte et en Guyane, de telles mesures sont promues. Elles viennent de très loin, et dans le climat actuel d’#extrême-droitisation qui va bien au-delà des partis appartenant à ce spectre de l’échiquier politique, cela ne m’étonne pas qu’elles rencontrent un franc succès.
      Un détour par l’histoire n’est pas inutile. Pendant longtemps, il y avait une #condition_de_nationalité pour l’accès à certaines prestations sociales non contributives. Il fallait être Français ou Européen ou ressortissant d’un pays ayant signé telle ou telle convention avec la France. Les étrangers étaient ainsi exclus du minimum vieillesse, du minimum invalidité et de l’allocation aux adultes handicapés jusqu’en 1998.
      Pendant les années 1980, le Front national, aujourd’hui Rassemblement national, défendait ce qu’il appelait « la préférence nationale ». C’était sa mesure phare.

      [...]

      Une autre condition est rapidement venue combler l’impossibilité de la condition de nationalité pour restreindre l’accès des étrangers à certaines prestations. C’est la condition d’#antériorité_de_titre_de_séjour autorisant à travailler.
      Attention ! Ce n’est pas la condition d’ancienneté de présence ou de résidence, dite aussi de résidence stable, qui existe par exemple en matière de protection maladie, assurance maladie ou d’Aide médicale d’Etat. Elle est beaucoup plus restrictive.
      C’est une arme de guerre massive contre les étrangers. Elle ne permet pas d’exclure tous les étrangers comme le ferait la condition de nationalité jugée contraire à la Constitution et aux normes internationales, mais elle s’en approche par ses effets, en excluant une proportion d’autant plus importante que l’antériorité exigée est longue.
      Mais même lorsqu’on remplit en pratique cette condition draconienne, faire valoir ses droits n’a rien d’évident. Pour deux raisons. D’abord, il faut pouvoir le prouver. Or lorsqu’on renouvelle son titre de séjour, on rend l’ancien. Il faut donc être très prudent, avoir fait des scans ou des photocopies de ces titres de séjour précédents sur cinq, dix ou quinze ans, et ne pas les avoir perdus.
      Ensuite, lors des renouvellements de titres, il arrive fréquemment qu’il y ait une rupture de la continuité, parfois de quelques jours seulement, souvent du fait des préfectures qui tardent à fixer un rendez-vous ou délivrer le bon document.
      Du strict point de vue du droit, cela remet les compteurs à zéro. Les administrations sociales ne font pas toujours preuve de bienveillance à cet égard. L’étranger se trouve alors irrémédiablement pénalisé.
      Avec ces amendements, on s’oriente vers l’exclusion de nombreuses personnes étrangères résidant régulièrement en France.

  • Une nouvelle preuve, s’il en est besoin, de l’impunité israélienne :

    « New Israeli Escalation against the Gaza Strip, 7 Palestinians, Including 3 Children, Killed and 52 Others, Including 6 Women and 12 Children, Wounded » (Palestinian Center for Human Rights, [PCHR], 11 novembre)
    http://www.pchrgaza.org/portal/en/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=8969:new-israeli-escalation-a

    Over the past 72 hours, the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) have escalated their aerial and ground attacks against the Gaza Strip. Five Palestinian civilians, including 3 children, have been killed, and 52 others, including 6 women and 12 children, have been wounded . Four of these deaths and 38 of the injuries resulted from an Israeli attack on a football playground in al-Shoja’iya neighborhood east of Gaza City. Additionally, 2 members of the Palestinian resistance were killed, and some civilian facilities were destroyed or damaged. (...)

    Moreover, the IOF have launched several attacks against Palestinian civilian property , as follows:

    At approximately 17:00 on Saturday, 10 November 2012, the IOF, positioned at the border between the Gaza Strip and Israel, east of Khan Yunis, fired 2 artillery shells at the water tank of the Khuza’a Municipality, nearly 800 meters away from the border. Shrapnel from the shells hit 11 Palestinian civilians, including 5 women and 2 children, while they were inside their houses or in nearby streets.

    At the same time, the IOF, positioned at the border between the Gaza Strip and Israel, fired an artillery shell at the office of the Gaza Electricity Distribution Company in al-Sha’af neighborhood east of Gaza City. The office was heavily damaged, but no casualties were reported. (...)

  • La société #PCH, qui gère plusieurs points d’échange (et qui avait beaucoup aidé celui d’#Haïti, avant et après le tremblement de terre), vient de sortir une excellente étude sur les accords de #peering (traduction française souhaitée) entre les opérateurs Internet.

    https://pch.net/resources/papers/peering-survey/PCH-Peering-Survey-2011.pdf

    On y apprend notamment que, contrairement à ce qui avait toujours été dit, le peering multilatéral est très fréquent.
