| New law in Israel
I'm quite alarmed at the new law that's just been passed by the Israelis. Basically, it means that a Palestinian/Israeli married couple either has to split up or leave the country.
I understand the reasoning behind it...quite a few of the Palestinian suicide bombers had Israeli citizenship but I still think it's the wrong way to go.
My own background is Scots/Irish (Catholic father, Protestant mother). We all know about the Irish troubles and I've always believed integration to be the best way to solve our racial/religious problems (lets face it, most of us are of mixed descent if we go far enough back in time). Or as our immortal Bard would say 'We're a' Jock Tomson's Bairns'. |
