The Nationality Bill
A few days ago Knesset Members passed, after a very long deliberation,
the Nationality Bill, which says that the state of Israel is the state of the
Jewish people. For the coalition, this is a big achievement, but for the
opposition it really isn’t. After (they) voted on the bill members of the
opposition were angry, yelled and left the hall. They said that the bill isn’t
democratic and doesn’t accept the Druze, the Bedouins and Israeli Arabs
who live in Israel. When Netanyahu gave a speech after the bill passed he
said that finally after a hundred and twenty two years, Israeli law says that
Israel is the national state of the Jewish people.
