Znet article on discriminatory new Israeli law

[Kaiynne]

Here is the article

This should stand as a perfect example of how "security" can be used to control a populations.

my favourite quote is:

Gideon Ezra, a cabinet minister, said: "This law comes to address a security issue. Since September 2000 we have seen a significant connection, in terror attacks, between Arabs from the West Bank and Gaza and Israeli Arabs." Since 1993, more than 100,000 Palestinians have become Israeli citizens through marriage, Mr Ezra said. But B'Tselem pointed out that only 20 of those 100,000 have been involved in suicide bombings or other militant attacks.

Forget 20, even if one had been involved it would have been enough to pass this law in the eyes of the Israelis. This law is more to protect the Jewishness of Israel than for legitamite security concerns, the fact is that Arabs just have more kids, and those kids will one day vote.
