Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman is “enraged” today, according to reports, after the existence of a confidential European Union memo was revealed which noted that Arabs inside Israel face discrimination.
A Foreign Ministry spokesman issued a statement on Lieberman’s behalf condemning the EU and complaining that the memo was written “behind our backs” and without having asked the Israeli government for permission first.
The document focused on a number of measures being pushed in Israel’s parliament limiting criticism of the government and efforts, which are being pushed by Lieberman’s party, to strip Arabs of citizenship if they do not swear a loyalty oath to Israel as a “Jewish” state.
The memo noted that the worst of the excesses in Israel’s far-right coalition have not yet been passed into law, or when they have the courts have severely limited them, but warned that the continuing efforts to push such legislation was harming Jewish-Arab relations inside the nation.
It is the second time in as many weeks that Lieberman has been furious at the European Union, angrily condemning them last week for criticizing the massive expansion of settlements in the occupied West Bank, and warning they are “irrelevant.”
Maybe the EU should note the discrimination being fostered and acted upon by the Orthodox Jews in Israel. Jewish Taliban, indeed.
It is amazing to watch the powerful nation of Israel fall apart because once you get a big military power over the neighbors you still have to live with your fellow citizens. It is only a matter of time till they start a shooting civil war. I cannot imagine a more stupid actions done in 1948 to provide money to a radical group who wanted to be given a free living to stay around reading the bible and making babies. Well now those paid fornicators are a mass number in the nation of Israel and they continue to want to live the good free life. It could not happen to a nicer group. Let them suffer the abuse of an out of control animal packs which the group really are.
The sad thing is our congress gave Israel the money to run separate buses based on the type of religiion you believe. I do not have bus service but our congress feels it more important to give two to a nation well capable of paying for their own bus service. It Israel ran short they could cut a few bucks from their nuclear bomb programs.
It doesn't cease to amaze every time, how authoritarians, tyrants, despots, racists and the like constantly whine when when they are not unconditionally worshiped by everyone at all times. Yo, avi, want Europeans, and everyone else to love you like your mommy didn't? Try to act like a human being, and treat your fellow humans accordingly. It's your actions that make you despised the world over. Want to change your perception? Act differently. As much as you think that everyone else is on this planet is a moron, that may not be the case.

Don'e even have to read the facts hurt.And its as true as anything I've ever heard.
It's no accident that they seem to go out of their way to promote and encourage antisemitism.
As the 51 state, Israel and its big brother fascist amerika; the Truth is suppressed at all costs by the puppet msm.
This false country believes they should be asked for permission before being criticized? Hah!
It's apparent that Israel is becoming more and more persona non grata no matter what Big Sugar Daddy does to protect their crimes against humanity and their terrorism. A sign of the times indeed.
Israel has made itself into an isolated militant supremacist theocracy/ethnocracy with ICBM nukes; a very real and rapidly increasing threat to itself and to the whole world. A pariah among nations. Justice demands that UN and NATO impose resolution just as involuntary, disruptive and humiliating to Israel as Israel has wreaked upon occupied Palestine for generations. The Jewish State must be made to recognize an armed Palestine with externally enforced autonomy, eviction of all settlers, true contiguity encompassing Gaza, the West Bank and Jerusalem together, neither pinched nor parceled, and pay punitive reparations.
