    Default New law destroys image of Israel as a democracy

    Bill Calls to Suspend Lawmakers From Knesset for Denying Israel as Jewish, Democratic State

    New version of bill replaces 'unbecoming behavior' with three new criteria for suspension from Knesset to win support of the ultra-Orthodox UTJ faction.

    http://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-1.702166

    For starters- this bill is anti- freedom of speech.
    Secondly it is crafted to support two flagrant lies.

    It intends to penalise politicians who criticise Israel's portrayal of itself as a democracy. What sort of a democracy does not permit criticism of itself ? What sort of a democracy denies its elected members freedom of speech ?

    It intends to penalise politicians who deny that Israel is a Jewish state. This amounts to imposing a penalty upon anybody who does not support a lie. Israel is NOT a Jewish state. 25% of Israeli citizens are NOT Jewish and no country in the world recognises Israel as being exclusively Jewish. Even president Truman rejected the concept of Israel as a ' Jewish state '. It is a dream of extremist Zionists and it is unreal. Nevertheless, this bill intends to remove elected officials from the parliament if they do not support the lie. How democratic is that ?

    Now, there are, doubtless, many Americans who will say ' so what- it's none of our business what a bunch of totalitarian Jews get up to in their own country '. However, Americans are in the process of handing this wannabe fascist regime 50 billion dollars . That's 50 billion doillars of US taxpayers money given to a state which suppresses democracy and victimises its minorities. What is this ? Alabama 1960 ?

    Israel cannot be excluvely Jewish and a democracy simultaneously- and those that wish to perform this sleight-of-hand should not be receiving one cent in aid towards it.

    Yes, and Israel's tentative hold on democracy will be terminated once they pass it.

    Why don't you actually apply yourself to defending democracy for its own sake ? You're not stupid. Why would you want to support an anti-democratic and totalitarian regime ?

    Oh wait- I've just seen your gutless reference to antisemitism. You're stupid after all. A fascist-sucking mongrel.

    I can't help but notice you get a little defensive at the antisemitism charge.

    It's just a bill at this point. There are any number of asinine bills that come before our own legislative bodies that never pass because *they are voted down*.

    If the Knesset votes the bill down democractically, I'll be looking for your concession that Israel is a functioning democracy.

    Charges of antisemitism as an execuse for Israeli criminality are inadmissible. It is the preserve of dopes.

    Its hold on democracy is tentative- and other racist laws have already been approved. The failure of this bill will be a temporary victory for justice and equality- not an endorsement of Israel as a democratic state. Its passage , on the other hand, will destroy its image as a democracy- which is the topic you've failed to grasp in your fervor to slander .

    PLENTY new here, new day , new crimes- but stale attempts at dismissal.

    It's neoZionist Jews, incidentally, in this instance. I wouldn't call you anti-Christian if you castigated some mall-murdering white evangelical extremist.

    Israeli bill targeting leftwing NGOs passes first hurdle

    The legislation has been criticised as it would only affect leftwing Israeli organisations, many of which are funded by EU countries, and not rightwing NGOs, which are supported by private donations from wealthy supporters of Israel. MPs who oppose the legislation described it as “political persecution” and an erosion of Israeli democracy.

    The opposition leader, Isaac Herzog, said the law would damage Israel’s standing among its friends abroad. Last month, the US ambassador to Israel, Dan Shapiro, said: “Governments must protect free expression and peaceful dissent and create an atmosphere where all voices can be heard.”

    What percentage of Israelis would have to be gentile in order for it to be a Jewish state? 24%, 15%, 1%?

    If you think that Israeli fascists are going to get away with what they've done to Palestinians then you're out of your tree. Sure , this is only one tiny corner of the Internet- but it's a small part of a political holocaust for neoZionism.

    A pointless speculation- as 25% of Israelis are not Jewish and that number is rising. Let's deal with the reality. Any attempt by Israeli fascists to forcibly lessen that percentage would signal the termination of US financial aid and blanket political support. Or they would have attempted it already. Currently they just murder and ethnically cleanse as many as they can get away with. The advent of the Internet and the video camera has severely curtailed that number.

    Habayit Hayehudi Backtracks, Will Support Knesset Suspension Bill

    Right wing party demands 'incitement to racism' be replaced with 'incitement to terror' as grounds for suspension of an MK 'thereby making it applicable, in practice, only to Arab MKs.'

    http://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-1.702352
    Just fancy that- the bill is supported by Israeli racists !
