Israeli Arabs Call to Replace Extremist Knesset Members
(Jerusalem Post) - Rifat Assadi, a folklore poet from the Galilee village of Deir al-Assad, told a rally of young academics Monday that some of Israel's current Arab MKs were destroying the Arab minority's relations with the Jewish state through incitement and identification with Syria, the Palestinian Authority, Hamas, Osama bin Laden, and Hizballah. Many Arabs are now blaming their representatives in the Knesset for increased tension with the state and for alienating their Jewish neighbors. They believe the actions and statements of the Arab MKs over the past few years have seriously hampered Arab endeavors to achieve full equality with Jews.
