Here I was almost believing what my betters in the Liberal party and NDP have been telling me, that the Israelis are racist Jews who hate Arabs and oppress them. I am shocked to find that Arab Israelis (Arab Israelis?? There are Arab Israelis!) will soon lose their exemption from being drafted into the army. So the racist Jews are going to force poor Arab Israelis into the army now? Dear god, that's terrible! Making citizens of Israel help in the common defence! And Orthodox Jews, too!
Ok, so that's just a bit of sarcasm but I do wonder how our left-of-centre friends square that circle. There are Arab members of the Knesset, Arabs in the Israeli military, Arabs with all the rights of Jews. What's up with that, lefties?
