Some recent headlines from Israel/Palestine

From The National: "Israel’s treatment of Ethiopians ‘racist’":

Health officials in Israel are subjecting many female Ethiopian immigrants to a controversial long-term birth control drug in what Israeli women’s groups allege is a racist policy to reduce the number of black babies.

The contraceptive, known as Depo Provera, which is given by injection every three months, is considered by many doctors as a birth control method of last resort because of problems treating its side effects.

However, according to a report published last week, use of the contraceptive by Israeli doctors has risen threefold over the past few years. Figures show that 57 per cent of Depo Provera users in Israel are Ethiopian, even though the community accounts for less than two per cent of the total population . . .

“This is about reducing the number of births in a community that is black and mostly poor,” said Hedva Eyal, the author of the report by Woman to Woman, a feminist organisation based in Haifa, in northern Israel. “The unspoken policy is that only children who are white and Ashkenazi are wanted in Israel,” she said, referring to the term for European Jews who founded Israel and continue to dominate its institutions.

From Haaretz: "Knesset rejects bill for equal Arab-Jewish land distribution":

The Knesset on Wednesday rejected by a majority vote a bill proposed by Israeli Arab MK Ahmed Tibi (Ra’am Ta’al) which would enforce equal distribution of land between Jewish and Arab citizens. . .

Tibi’s proposal was intended to counter a bill passed two weeks ago which states that reception committees of Israeli communities can decide who will reside in their towns. One consequence of that bill is that Israeli Arabs would not be able to live in those towns if the reception committees decide so.

On Sunday, Tibi lambasted the ministerial panel as proving that Israel had proven "yet again" that it preferred to "avoid the principle of civil equality."

And in the JTA: "Survey: Israel has ‘severe’ image problem"

I wonder why?

    Someone is proposing that Israeli tourists should act as PR agents abroad to burnish Israel’s reputation. Whoever had this idea hasn’t watched the Israeli tourist in action.

  3. radii says:

    If the allegation is true that the israeli regime is compelling Ethiopian immigrant females to take Depo Provera to reduce the number of black babies then I must point out that Josef Mengele would approve

    Well, you can count on the USA black caucus and Obama to tell it like it is. No? LOL.

  5. Elisabeth says:

    During the Apartheid era, white mistresses would coerce their black maids to take such three-monthly injections to ‘help’ them. But is was well known that their real motive was to keep the black birthrate down.

    MMM, what white groups actually support in a practical way more white kids per nuclear family, the Mormons, the PA Amish, the David Duke followers? Meanwhile, cable TV reality programs support the contrary, and much more effectively. Is the future of
    the diminishing world white population an issue that can be addressed anywhere? Just curious since I live in the age of identity politics. It’s especially interesting to address the issue on this blog since the defender of Jewish continuity, Dick Witty, has such power to defend any action advocated to maintain such continuity.

    • Citizen says:

      I guess my real core question is, does Israel represent core white values? Mooser would think so, I imagine. How about Dick W? Gee, maybe the USA at the macro level
      is the same as former Nazi Germany and current Israeli Ashkanazi level? Hitler must be entertained in his grave by what’s happening now. Seriously, is this a long term good thing for the USA or Israel? If so, how so?
