B.Burston cosa c'è di sbagliato in uno stato ebraico

-

Rabbis in the West Bank give Israel's enemies new ammunition week to week, by condoning killings of Palestinians.

And, in a reference to Israeli Arabs, ultra-Orthodox Housing Minister Ariel Atias this month chose the Bar Association, of all venues, to declare that he saw it as "a national duty to prevent the spread of a population that, to say the least, does not love the state of Israel." He went on to explicitly argue for segregation, not only between Jews and Arabs, but between ultra-Orthodox and secular Jews.Whether all this is done in the service of patriotism or in the service of Jewish tradition, its effect is disservice to both.

The most racist Knesset in Israel's history

        The most racist Knesset in Israel's history - Opinion The current Knesset appears to be the most racist in the history of the legislature. It is also the most boorish and mediocre. Scandal follows scandal, MKs vie with each other to see who will lead the assembly to its nadir. Wednesday’s pick was the new deputy interior minister, MK Yaron Mazuz (Likud,) who told his Arab colleagues “we’re doing you a favor that you’re sitting here,” and called on them to return their identity cards. The most ludicrous moment was when he told them: “ You’re in a democratic country, respect it .” The right response to these contemptible words may have been to ignore them completely. A lawmaker and deputy minister who shows this level of ignorance, lack of basic understanding o...

Akiva Eldar : Netanyahu’s real crime: plundering land for settlers

Netanyahu’s real crime: plundering land for settlers In response to the Feb. 13 police announcement of  sufficient evidence to indict Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on charges of bribery and breach of trust, Education Minister Naftali Bennett said, “Receiving gifts so extensively for so long does not meet the expectations of the citizenry of the State of Israel.” Polls conducted since then suggest that Bennett is wrong. According to a survey by the pollster Yossi Sarid for Reshet TV, although only 29% of Israelis surveyed believe the prime minister is innocent, more Israelis  want him to stay  in office than want him to resign or take time off, 49% versus 43% respectively. An advance copy of Bennett’s speech distributed to reporters accused Netanyahu of accepting gifts from billionaires. “This is not the way to instill values in the young generation, and this is not the way we were taught,”...

Mariam Barghouti :No, non puoi essere una femminista e una sionista

sintesi personale Visualizza traduzione No, You Can’t Be a Feminist And a Zionist Zionism, as currently expressed in Palestine, contradicts feminism in its oppressive policies and the privileges it gives to a select group of people. forward.com   MI sento tradita come donna. Ho affrontato le donne soldato  da donna a donna, pensando ingenuamente che dovevamo essere uniti nella lotta contro il patriarcato. Come nota l'autrice femminista Bell Hooks, il patriarcato è un sistema completo di dominazione. La lotta femminista è contro non solo il sessismo allarmante del patriarcato, ma anche contro tutte le forme di oppressione. È un messaggio che ho assorbito attraverso gli insegnamenti di mia madre, che mi ha guidato costantemente a praticare un femminismo inclusivo .   Mi ha spesso avvertito che devo riconoscere i poteri di dominio in tutte le sue manifestazioni, anche all'interno della società pa...

Bradley Burston: No, Gesù non sarebbe stato un colono ebreo. Sarebbe stato un rabbino per i diritti umani

Bradley Burston : No, Jesus was not a Jewish settler. He was a rabbi for human rights Sintesi personale Se Gesù fosse vivo oggi in Terra Santa dove potremmo cercarlo? Sollevo la questione  dopo l'intervento di  Oren , un membro della   Knesset   in Christian Allies Caucus:   se Gesù fosse  vivo oggi, sarebbe stato visto come un colono ebreo in Cisgiordania .     Infatti Oren ha detto in un discorso citato dal Jerusalem Post .   "Gesù, Maria e Giovanni Battista sarebbero  oggi  considerati coloni ebrei a Betlemme. La nostra missione sacra è garantire che  lo  Stato ebraico rimanga forte ed amato." Io credo che se Gesù vivesse qui, si sentirebbe a casa con noi. Non comodamente . Niente affatto in pace  ,ma a suo agio. Sarebbe un uomo   nato in una Terra Santa  dominata dalla  violenza, dalla  ribellione ,dall'ingiusti...
