Israeli Law Declares The Country The ‘Nation-state Of The Jewish People’ by Nobody: 3:47am On Jul 20, 2018 |
JERUSALEM — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel has long demanded that the Palestinians acknowledge his country’s existence as the “nation-state of the Jewish people.” On Thursday, his governing coalition stopped waiting around and pushed through a law that made it a fact. In an incendiary move hailed as historic by Mr. Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition but denounced by centrists and leftists as racist and anti-democratic, Israel’s Parliament enacted a law that enshrines the right of national self-determination as “unique to the Jewish people” — not all citizens. The legislation, a “basic law” — giving it the weight of a constitutional amendment — omits any mention of democracy or the principle of equality, in what critics called a betrayal of Israel’s 1948 Declaration of Independence, which ensured “complete equality of social and political rights” for “all its inhabitants” no matter their religion, race or sex. The new law promotes the development of Jewish communities, possibly aiding those who would seek to advance discriminatory land-allocation policies. And it downgrades Arabic from an official language to one with a “special status.” https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/19/world/middleeast/israel-law-jews-arabic.html |

Isreal....that racist country that looks down on blacks like no other. It's only in Nigeria here that people sees Israelis as friends and "Godly" people. They are the most stupid and arrogant set of humans on earth with supremacist instinct. No wonder they killed their brother Jesus "the Christ" because he differed from their Jewish ways.
