WHO PRACTICES APARTHEID?

MIDDLE EAST APARTHEID by Judith Klinghoffer (Political Mavens)

Mike Perloff clearly had enough of the fashionable, if baseless, reference to Israel as an Apartheid state. So, he left this post on my History News Network site. I thought it is worthy of sharing:

Which group being compared in the chart below appears to be engaged in the practice of Apartheid?Read the chart and reach your own conclusions.

The identity of each group appears at the end.
# Official languages -Group 1: Arabic & Hebrew Group 2: Arabic
# Religious minorities - Group 1: Growing Group 2: Shrinking
# Both Mosques and Synagogues allowed - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Education/Medical care for all - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Arab & Jewish judges - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Arabs & Jews in government - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Arabs & Jews in diplomatic corps - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Arabs & Jews on sports teams - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Arabs & Jews can serve in army and police Group 1: Yes Group 2: No

# Arab & Jewish civilian killings condemned - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No

# Arabs & Jews allowed to buy homes - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# People are killed for selling homes or property to members of the other group - Group 1: No Group 2: Yes
# Children taught respect for life - Group 1: Yes Group 2: No
# Children taught martyrdom & hate - Group 1: No group 2: Yes ====================================== Notes:a) The last two items on the chart (What children are taught) may appear to be subjective but a reading of translations of schoolbooks and children’s TV programs clearly support the information as presented.

b) Group 1 has been under siege and threatened by wars and terrorism since before its independence. Twenty percent of its citizens share the same culture and religion as Group 2.

c) Group 2 kills or commits ethnic cleansing of any members of Group 1 under its jurisdiction. They demand no members of Group 1 be allowed to live in areas in which they may become sovereign. They also accuse Group 1 of practicing Apartheid

Prepare yourself.

Group 1 - ISRAELIS

Group 2 - ARABS

If the information in the chart is correct,it would appear that while Israel is accused of Apartheid,it is the Arabs who practice it. ========================================================

Don’t trust any of this information! Do your own research.

It’s easy and not a matter of interpretation or bias. For example:

Either Arab Israeli citizens are increasing in number and serve as Israeli diplomats, judges, and government ministers, or they don’t! & Either the Arab leadership demands the removal of Jewish communities from areas they hope to eventually govern, or they don’t!
