Object: New Israeli Law Bars Palestinians Who Marry Israelis From Living In Israel
Sounds like a law out of Nazi Germany. I doubt it will gain any
sympathy for Israel...
JERUSALEM - Israel's parliament passed a measure Thursday that would
force Palestinians who marry Israelis to live separate lives or move
out of Israel. The government said the law was necessary to prevent
terror attacks, but critics called it racist.
The law, to be in effect for one year, would prevent Palestinians from
the West Bank and Gaza Strip (news - web sites) who marry Israeli
Arabs from obtaining residency permits in Israel.
In pushing the measure, Israel's government cited instances in which
Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza have exploited their
residency permits — which grant them freedom of movement in Israel —
to carry out terror attacks.
"This law comes to address a security issue," Cabinet Minister Gideon
Ezra told Israel Radio. "Since September 2000 we have seen a
significant connection, in terror attacks, between Arabs from the West
Bank and Gaza and Israeli Arabs."
The vote was 53 in favor, 25 against and one abstention[... ]

That's nonsense. The law applies to Israeli citizen's who marry
Palestinians. The comparison is apt and true.

It's racistic indeed because it concerns just palestinians.

True, but than again, the Palestinians are the ones who have long called
for the extinction of Israel. I don't recall the Italians, Brits, or
French, for example calling for the aniahation of Israel. It is very
reasonable for Israel to tread carefully in allowing its sworn enemy's
people to live to live there.

Thsi is very simply Apartheid as Israel is saying that some of it's
citizen's have less rights than others. An Israeli Arab should have the same
rights as an Israeli Jew. They are both Israelis. But this law says that
one group (Israeli Jews) can marry anyone they choose and continue to live
in Israel, whilst the other (Israeli Arabs) must immigrate if they don't
marry other Israelis.
To see the people who suffered the Holocaust engaging in these Nazi policies
is truly appalling. Israel needs to wake up. She's a pariah, not because the
world is anti-Semetic, but because Israel behaves in a way that goes against
all the principles, not only of Judaism, but of any decent society.

Not true. This law applies both to Jewish and Arab citizens of Israel
equally. Do you have to lie to strengthen your argument?

Is it "racistic" that US allows its citizens to come and go as they
please, lets Europeans come without visas, but requires a lengthy
process including an interview with a consular official to get a
visa for everyone else?
No country in the world allows unchecked immigration. Palestinians were
immigrating into Israel using fictitious marriages. Israel has stopped
it. Get a clue.

The tradition in Arab world is that the wife moves to the husband's house.
In overwhelming majority of cases, when a Palestinian Arab non-citizen
marries an Israeli Arab woman, he moves to her house. Why do you think
that is?

I don't know, you tell me what's the problem. When did people lose the
right to break with tradition? After all the world is pushing the
Arabs to break with tradition and adopt a western lifestyle.

You're being deliberately obtuse. I can't help that.

Wrong.

The law is designed to discourage marriage between Israelis (Israeli
Arabs possibly) and Palestinians.

The marriage is fine. The immigration to Israel using the marriage
as a tool is not.

It absolutely is. People have the right to marry and live were they
choose. Making the choice to immigrate to Israel is absolutely
legitimate. If an Israeli Jew has the right to move his/her spouce to
Israel why shouldn't Israeli arabs be allowed to do so too? It would
be downright stupid of them if they did not make this choice. Israel
is where the jobs and the opportunity to make a better living are. And
no government should deny it's people the right to a better life.

Not quite. The article clearly states that since 1993 out of a 100,000
who married Israeli spouces only 20 were involved in terrorist
attacks.
This is clearly not a group of Palestinians bent on attacking Israel.

United States - if the INS thinks that the marriage was conducted
with the sole purpose of getting the spouse residency in the U.S.
Which is exactly the reason for the law in Israel.

Now who is obtuse. The US does not ban ALL americans from bringing in
the countriy their spouces if said spouces are of a certain
nationality. The US bans it's citizens from marrying foreigners solely
for the purpose of gaining entry into the US and the US law is
certainly it's not directed at a specific ethnic group.

I wonder if these people really understand the laws in America.
Marriage to an American citizen is *not* necessarily a free ticket to
citizenship. It's not prohibited, but the marriage is investigated.
If the marriage seems contrived (but whatever standards they use),
citizenship can be withheld.

Yes, but these Israeli Arab marriages aren't tested to see if they are sham
mariages, the law simply states that alll Israeli Arabs who marry
non-Israeli's cannot live in Israel. The same does not apply to Jewish
Israelis who it would seem are free to marry any nationality of their
choosing.

The law applies to those Palestinians who have Israeli spouces.


It applies to non-citizen Arabs who marry Israeli Arab women.
What part of non-citizen do you not understand?


I wonder if these people really understand the laws in America.
Marriage to an American citizen is *not* necessarily a free ticket to
citizenship. It's not prohibited, but the marriage is investigated.
If the marriage seems contrived (but whatever standards they use),
citizenship can be withheld.

This law is not about finding out which marriages are shams. It's a
blanket policy removing free choice from a minority.
