Arab Knesset Member Petitions Court Over Anti-Israel Incitement Speech

Gary Fitleberg, December 30, 2004

In Israel, the only beacon of democracy and freedom and Jewish state in a sea of twenty-two corrupt dictatorships, human rights violators, ruthless repressive regimes, state supporters of terrorism and tyrannies that comprise the bad neighborhood known as the Middle East allows its Arab population including those so-called "Palestinains"

Arab nations do not allow freedom of speech to anyone, Arabs and Jews, but would never ever allow any Jew to hold a public position. Only in Israel. Arabs are allowed to have diplomatic immunity and freedom of speech and are appointed to hold public office and positions in the Israeli Knesset (Parliament) and Supreme Court.

Hadash MK Issam Makhoul petitioned the High Court yesterday to nullify a Knesset Ethics Committee decision to revoke his speaking privileges for 10 days. The committee's decision was approved Wednesday by a 41-13 majority. Makhoul was punished following a June Knesset hearing on the reduction of the number of lifeguards along Israel's beaches, in which Makhoul said that "government policy is encouraging death by drowning" and that it is "a government of blood and of death."

Arabs should not use their democracy and freedom, which they use as a guise to "aid and abet a p"erpetual polical propaganda ploy and bloody campaign of hatred, incitement, terrorism and violence to annihilate the only state that allows them rights. That would be a shameful terrible trajedy.
