Betraying Israel's Arabs
(Gatestone Institute) Khaled Abu Toameh - In meeting with families of Palestinians who carried out attacks against Israelis, three Israeli Arab Knesset Members acted against the interests of 1.5 million Arab citizens of Israel. Such actions have one clear result: colossal injury to Arab citizens' efforts for full equality. These parliamentarians work harder for Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza who are not citizens of Israel than for their own Israeli constituents. Their spare moments are spent vying for the distinction of being the most vitriolic provocateur against their country. Arab Knesset members could have used the meeting to issue a call for an end to the current wave of stabbing attacks. They could have demanded that Palestinian leaders, factions and media outlets cease brainwashing young men and women, and cease urging them to murder Jews - any Jews.
