Israel adopts divisive Jewish nation-state law
By Maayan Lubell

Israel passed a law on Thursday to declare that only Jews have the right of self-determination in the country, something members of the Arab minority called racist and verging on apartheid.

The "nation-state" law, backed by the right-wing government, passed by a vote of 62-55 and two abstentions in the 120-member parliament after months of political argument. Some Arab lawmakers shouted and ripped up papers after the vote.

"This is a defining moment in the annals of Zionism and the history of the state of Israel," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Knesset after the vote.

Some left-wing and perhaps, right-wing news sources are really going to town over this bill, talking it down.  I looked to find a basically, neutral article. Big story.

Let the Arab minority call it whatever they wish.
I call it common sense, to preserve and protect Israel's ethnicity and Jewish culture.

We need a similar law here to protect Euro-Americans... ;)

Not divisive...it's their right.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

Republicans Don't Need A Back Bench...They Need a BACKBONE!
