The Israeli left has condemned the proposed ban
By Caroline Hawley
BBC Jerusalem Correspondent
Human rights groups in Israel are vowing to fight a government decision that
would bar Israeli Arabs from living in Jewish communities.
Seventeen cabinet ministers voted on Sunday to support a bill brought by a
right-wing MP in response to a high court ruling that would have allowed an
Arab nurse to move into a Jewish village.
No other government in the democratic world would have adopted such a law
Yossi Sarid, Israel opposition leader
The proposed law aims to preserve the character of existing Jewish communities
by not allowing any non-Jew to live there.
The man behind it, Haim Druckman, has described the cabinet's support for it as
one of the government's finest hours, a decision that he said put colour back
into the cheeks of Zionism.
But civil rights activists and left-wing politicians have reacted with horror.
Yossi Sarid, the opposition leader in parliament, and several Arab MPs have
condemned the cabinet's decision, with Mr Sarid telling the BBC that the
decision was shameful, racist and totally unacceptable.
Government backing
The controversial bill has its origins in an attempt by Arab Adel Kaadanan and
his family from northern Israel to move into a nearby Jewish village,
established on state land in the 1980s.
The proposed ban has already embittered Israeli-Arab relations
Israel's Supreme Court ruled two years ago that the family should be allowed to
live there.
But the community of Katzir refused to admit them, and now the government has
backed its decision.
The Association for Civil Rights in Israel has described the cabinet vote as
alarming and unconstitutional, because it contradicted the basic right of
equality.
The law, which would officially bar Arabs from living in Jewish communities,
still has to be passed by parliament.
But it has already further embittered relations between Israel's Jewish and
Arab populations, which have been badly soured by the current climate of
mistrust in the Middle East.
Matali si cei ca mata nu avetii monopol pe baloane de test
timpite pentru timpitii.
Se apropie alegerile.
Dar Israelul este stat democrat , in afara a face o timpenie
propagandistica legea este moarta si chiar daca printr-o minora
sansa va trece cele trei voturi ale knesetului mai mult ca sigur
ca va fi abolita de tribunalul suprem.
Vezi daca nu ai inteles pina acuma intr-o democratie puternica poti
spune aproape orice timpenie vrei ,in cele din urma implementarea timpeniei
este oprita de rotile sistemului democratic (nu exact cea ce le place celor
ca matali).
