Arab MK: Jews have no right to self-determination [Zoabi]
INN ^ | 10/13/17 15:29 | Chana Roberts

Speaking at The Jerusalem Fund and Palestine Center in Dallas last week, Arab MK Hanin Zoabi (Joint Arab List) openly admitted that Jews do not have a right to self-determination, and that Israel should not exist as a Jewish state.

“It’s an equality which challenges the definition of Israel as a Jewish state,” Zoabi said. “We use this democracy — of course, there is a question of why you…give legitimacy to Israel when you are within the Knesset. This is true. So remember, I am telling you now that now we have the ability to use these tools, the democratic tools, for our own interests, for our own national approaching [sic]. The military regime (i.e., Israel — C.R.) tried to be more liberal, more sophisticated with us, and again more to negate our identity… It is not enough that Israel should exit, should leave Gaza and the West Bank. Zionism should leave also, from the whole area… There are articles in Haaretz, you can read. Israel now resembles Germany in the thirties… We also within this vision define the matter of self-determination, not for the Jews — for the Israelis.”

Zoabi then said that the Jewish people are not a nationality, but admitted Israel has a right to self-determination. “The answer we give is that the Jews are not (a) nationality, so we cannot talk about self-determination for the Jewish people,” Zoabi said. “But for the Israelis, they can have self-determination. But not as a Jewish state — within a secular democratic state.” …

Never mind the fact that Israel was in existence for over 3 thousand years before Islam was even thought of.

So the reason the Israeli Left supports the Muslims is to eradicate any religious identity as Jews or a Jewish State.

Got it. No thanks.

This is rubbish. A nation state can decide for itself whether it will be secular, have a state established religion, or some combination. Many European nations have established churches (England, for example) yet do not prevent its citizens from practicing the faiths they choose.

Under Islam, NO ONE has the right of self-determination, not even Muslims...there is only unchangeable Sharia Law. Musings regarding cause and effect are not allowed. In particular, the entire West avoids this certain reality and is melting in the face of the greatest Jihad in world history, ongoing every second. As Erdogan of Turkey states, there is only Islam, making the point that Western imaginations of “extreme”, “devout”, “moderate” Islam are just imaginings...in the end there is only Islam. The West does not get it.

You know, there’s a website called Stormfront where views like that are welcomed more. This site is for allies of Israel.

So if a Jewish state is forbidden, then so are all the Muslim states forbidden.
