(Times of Israel) Dov Lieber - At a conference on human rights Sunday, Deputy Minister of Regional Cooperation Ayoub Kara, a Druze citizen of Israel, said, "Israel is a paradise....In no other place in the Middle East are minorities growing." Father Gabriel Naddaf, who in recent years has campaigned for Christians in Israel to join the Israeli army, read a letter from a Christian girl from the Arab town of Nazareth who wanted to enlist. "If they claim that Israel is an occupier, then its occupation in contrast to other occupations is paradise....I will fight for [Israel's] sake, because I would like that the land of our forefathers will once again be liberated from the real occupiers."
