Israel’s Knesset disqualified a bill that called for all citizens to be treated equally, rejecting the argument it must recognise the rights of its Arab minority as equal to the Jewish majority.

The text of the bill stated its objective was “to anchor in constitutional law the principle of equal citizenship while recognising the existence and rights of the two, Jewish and Arab, national groups living within the country”.

The bill was sponsored by Balad, an Arab political faction and member of the Joint List – an alliance of four predominantly Arab parties – in the parliament.

The Knesset Speaker had some very harsh words for the proposal. He basically said that anybody who supported it was an idiot.

Speaker Yuli Yoel Edelstein denounced the bill in a statement on the Knesset website on Tuesday.

“This is a preposterous bill that any intelligent individual can see must be blocked immediately. A bill that aims to gnaw at the foundations of the state must not be allowed in the Knesset,” Edelstein said.

“This is the first time since my appointment as Knesset speaker five years ago that I am recommending that the presidium disqualify a bill.”

Once again, this is another example of hypocrisy from Jews on racial issues. Jews will actively promote the concept of racial equality in every country except for Israel.

This is from al jezera. @DenilsonTheReturn you need to put Israel on your hate list or maybe u hate Arabs
