The Knesset Interior Committee headed by MK Dudu Amsalem held a wide-ranging discussion about violence among the Arab population.
"There have been 13 murders in a single place in Beit Jann. The police are powerless to prevent it or do find the guilty parties," according to Bayan Qabalan, Head of the Beit Jann Local Council. "13 murders with nobody held to account. This intolerable situation will ultimately turn on you. If nothing is done you will suffer as we do." Beit Jann is a Druze village in northern Israel.
The discussion was held at the request of MKs Osama Saadi, Mickey Levy and Issawi Frej.
Mazin G'Nayem, mayor of Sakhnin said, "1,165 Arab citizens have been murdered since 2000. [The government] acts as though the local mayors are not cooperating. This is simply not true. We reach out to you [to help us]. In a recent discussion held in Modi'in, one of the police heads claimed that in a single Arab village there were more than 20,000 firearms.
"We expect the police to treat us like all other citizens. Parents do not allow their children to leave home after 4 pm. If we do not work together to stop the next killing the numbers will continue to increase. In any other country, ministers would have resigned over such numbers."
Kamal Riyan, vice president of the Center for Local Government, told the lawmakers, "I lost my son in 2009. At his graveside, I placed his file in the hands of the police. I will not give up until I know who killed my son. There are almost 300 murderers and over 100,000 firearms among us. My 13-year-old son was killed. I thought the State of Israel would have an 'intifada' over the murder of children.

If the account is true, that's only approx. 73 per year..........Maybe they would feel safer in Chicago.....
The Druze may be Arabs, but they are not Muslims. Muslims will kill them as readily as any other Infidel.
Chicago would not even notice 73 extra murders a year.
Dang, you beat me to it, Chicago was the first thing I thought of. I think they’re running at about 100 a month or so.
That total would be but a fraction of the number of murders in American cities with the same population as Israeli Arabs.
Dudu ??
For point of comparison, how many Jews are murdered in Israel each year (excluding terrorism)?
