      Sure WJ, I am sure that is an “honest” request, and there is more where this came from – THE ARAB ASSOCIATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS, ASSOCIATION IS SERVICE OF PALESTINIAN ARAB MINORITY INSIDE ISRAEL (in fact, there is more than you can swallow here):

      THE STATE OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN ISRAEL AND THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES

      The report was done in 2007, immaculately documented, and it has done nothing but grow worse since then. There is a special section speaking about employment.

      Now, if you really want a treat WJ, here is the entire site of the Arab HRA, which is recognized internationally as authoritative, and whose reports have been used by other international human rights organization –

      ARAB HRA INSIDE ISRAEL

      See, for instance, this story, in which Arab workers were dismissed by Israel Railways after the terms of employment were changed to require employees to be army veterans.

      Since the State requires Jews to perform army service but does not make the same requirement of Arabs, this amounts discrimination against the Arab community.

    When any person (or group or country) is above the law, has absolute power, has immunity from prosecution (before the act) and impunity from punishment (after the act) — then there is absolute corruption.

    Thus Israel goes from a three-day-old fish to a ten-days-old fish and stinks worse every day.

    The USA might have been a power to enforce INTERNATIONAL LAW but has chosen not to. The USA becomes, similarly, a ten-days-old fish, and a glance (but pinch your nose) into the Congress or MSM is enough to see what happens when PRESERVATION OF POWER becomes the goal, and not RULE OF LAW, GOOD GOVERNMENT, HUMAN RIGHTS, or any other such thing.

    Those who HAVE BEEN supporting this fishy Israel find themselves trapped by their CO-OPTing behavior, because they are already guilty of ignoring law, ignoring human rights, protecting the powerful (presumably to maintain their own membership in some kind of “Good Old Boys and Girls” network which benefits themselves).

    Who’re in this smelly network? See, for example: link to infoisrael.net
    rel=”nofollow”>this list of authors propagandising for Israel.

    The only way out for those who can WAKE UP AND SMELL THE FISH is the BDS movement, open in principle to anyone but attractive only to those who are not afraid to be thrown out of the network.
