Professor: Arabs don't want to talk

As part of the Hebrew University's research on conflicts, they held an academic course focusing on the dialogue between Jews and Arabs in Israel. The course was intended for both Israeli and Arab university students.

However, not a single Arab student was interested in the course, and none signed up for it.

Last year, the course opened with 22 Israeli students and not a single Arab. Dr. Maya Kahanov was forced to personally search out and invite Arab students, finally ending up with a class total of 22 Israeli students and 11 Arab students.

"Once there was a will to meet, but today most of the Israeli Arabs don't have any motivation to talk," Dr. Kahanov explained in an interview with the Yediot Yerushalayim newspaper. "Arab students are sick of being the good, nice Arab when they see how much their nation is suffering.

"I've come to the conclusion we have to work with the Jewish students separately, on an 'inner dialogue.' It would be much simpler if you could invite them to create something together with you, but the end result is that they don't come, and I'm exhausted. I give up. We need to move on, and continue to search for the dialogue," she added.

Arabs in Israel are afraid. They are afraid of seeming weak to other Arabs while at the same time fearful of seeming threatening to Jews. Better to be nothing.

A people and culture that creates stuff and another that does almost nothing but violently steals stuff. I can’t see the two ever having much to talk about.
