Thread: Use a Palestinian Car Mechanic, Go To Prison

Use a Palestinian Car Mechanic, Go To Prison

For 3 Years!

On Monday, the Israeli Knesset passed a law imposing a penalty of three years imprisonment on Israeli vehicle-owners who take their vehicles to mechanics in the West Bank.

I cannot even guess at the justification.

The first comment seems to address my feelings quite well:

Maybe they are worried the Palestinian “mechanic” will put a bomb in the car?? More likely, they are trying to starve the palestinians out of “Their Land”. If you think that the NO merchanics law is bad, LOOK AT THIS!!! Rabbi issues fatwa? Al-Ahram Weekly | Region | Genocide announced or I guess they call it something else in Israel; To wit Israeli Jews should kill all the palestinians. When you read it, think if this sounds like what the nazis did to the Jews….

Well, Rosen is a kook. Taking his position as indicative of general Isreali sentiments is not unlike taking an AQ rant as the position of Arabs.

The law regarding mechanics would seem to be consistent with broader attempts to isolate and impoverish the collective people of the West Bank for the crime of democratically electing a government Isreal doesn't like.

But not outside Isreal's rights.

The israeli Apartheid policies aim at chasing the remaining palestinians off their remaining homelands, as has been often confirmed by israeli officials or influential jewish figures. Apartheid is a crime against humanity, and without the constant american veto, the UNSC would launch sanctions against Israel tomorrow considering Israel has disobeyed 67 UN resolutions and didnt sign up to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty.
