It has been reported that castration has been discussed in the Knesset as a solution to the Arab population problem

Israeli-Russian journalist calls for castration as anti-terror step

Your post was that castration had been discussed in the Knesset as a solution to the Arab population problem…

Your proof is an article out of today's Ha’aretz, which states that an Israeli-Russian journalist calls for castration as anti-terror step.

I’ll point out the inconsistencies for you…

An Israeli-Russian journalist writing an article in a newspaper is not the Knesset discussing it… You do see that don’t you.

Furthermore, you reported that the Knesset was discussing it as an answer to the Arab population problem. The journalist was discussing it as a way to stop terror.

Now, did the Knesset discuss it? If they did, could you provide proof of the discussion and the result of the discussion?

Excerpts:

Israeli law-makers, intellectuals and even government officials are becoming increasingly open about exploring "prospective solutions" for Palestinian demographic growth in Israel and the occupied territories, with the suggested solutions ranging from collective deportation to institutionalised apartheid.


The number of Jews, he added, would grow to 6.4 million in 2020, with the corresponding figure for non-Jews topping 8.8 million.

Arab Knesset members denounced the meeting as "naked racism," and a " big scandal in a state that claims to be civilised and democratic. It is racist, just racist, there is no other name for it," said Arab Knesset member Hashem Mohamed, who boycotted the meeting.

Knesset member Isam Makhoul of the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality also castigated the meeting. "If anything like this were discussed anywhere in the world, it would be condemned as brash racism, but here, in a state that claims to be the only democracy in the Middle East, we see dignified lawmakers candidly discussing ways and means to curb the birth rate of a given segment of society on the grounds that they don't have the right race and religion. It's racism, it's disgusting."
