    This is from an article on Fox News about the American teen

    who was hurling rocks with a slingshot and was beaten by a police officer which the US State department and the international community condemn severely (how i wish the US had cared as much about Naftali Frenkel another American teen) the AP contributed to the article.

    “Israeli Arabs, unlike Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, hold citizenship rights. But they often face discrimination and many identify with the Palestinians. Even so, violent riots like those that occurred on Saturday are rare”

    1. Most Israeli Arabs face the same sorts of job discriminantion as hareidim (being from a traditional non-western culture and not serving in the army).

    2. They are forced to speak a foreign language in dealing with the government, and are forced to deal with a government consisting almost exclusive of other groups.

    3. Many if not most Israelis wish to get them to leave the country.

    4. As with hareidim, if they give up their religion, culture and lifestyle they will no longer be discrimianted against.

    P.S. The US also disapproved of Hamas kidnapping and murdering the three Jewish boys – butg whereas Hamas is regarded as an enemy force, the Israelis are a client state (a little more independent than Puerto Rico or Guam, but less than being an independent sovereign country that could exist without American support).

    Feeling a little confused, a little surprised, a little scared…

    We have our own homegrown antisemites right here in the CR?

    None other than Noam Chomsky wrote in a recent article (criticizing the BDS movement) that Israeli discrimination against Israeli Arabs, while it exists, is much less worse than American discrimination against minorities. I think this is true — sure, there is probably some employment discrimination against Israeli Arabs and other forms of discrimination, but there’s no way it rises to the level of the massive discrimination that persists in the US criminal justice system (in which blacks are many times more likely to be prosecuted for crimes, such as drug use, that they do at the same rate as whites).

    Actually, if they would know who the real criminals are, they would probably arrest them and leave everyone else alone. So you can’t know who did it and who didn’t except by examining evidence that you have, which is always very little.
