Times of Israel ^ | 9th May 2022

Posted on 05/19/2022 8:36:09 AM PDT by Cronos

Former Tel Aviv District Court vice president sworn into post Judge Khaled Kabub on Monday became the first Muslim appointed to Israel’s Supreme Court. All previous Arab Israeli justices on the 15-member court have been Christians.

Kabub entered the post alongside some 81 other judges who were sworn in to various court positions at a special ceremony at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem, attended by President Isaac Herzog, Supreme Court President Esther Hayut, and Justice Minister Gideon Sa’ar.

The 64-year-old Kabub, who until now served as vice president of the Tel Aviv District Court, will take the place of retiring justice Neal Hendel.

In September 1997, Kabub was appointed as a judge to the Netanya Magistrate’s Court. In June 2003, he was appointed a judge of the Tel Aviv District Court, and in September 2017 was appointed as vice president.

His most significant ruling was the 2016 conviction of former billionaire Nochi Dankner for manipulating shares in his company.

I’d be happy if all 9 of our justices were Christians.

How many Christians functioning in the Arab court system I wonder.

I’m guessing it’s less than one.

Also, considering what muslims re attempting to do within our own political system IMO it’s a terrible mistake to put a muslim in a position like this.

Israel felt compelled to put a Muslim on their Supreme Court because they felt embarrassed about all the Muslim countries that have Jews serving on their Supreme Courts and in other high-ranking official positions. Bwahahahahahaha!

He will be used as a precedent for more of them, allowing them to eventually control Israeli policies, and they won't be beneficial to Jews. There is only one Israel, and these fools are too busy trying to keep up with the latest idiocies, like being "woke" to see consequences.

Sad but true.

Israel’s Leftists are determined to secularize Israel to the point where it will no longer be the place of refuge for persecuted Jews.
