Arab MK: We Won’t Recognize Jewish Israel

Reported: 23:28 PM - May/27/09

(IsraelNN.com) Arab Knesset member Ahmed Tibi said on Wednesday that "we won't recognize a Jewish and Zionist Israel despite [MK Zevulun] Orlev's law, even if we pay a personal price." His comments came in response to a bill proposed by Orlev which would mandate jail time for anyone calling for the end of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state.

"This coalition will end up proposing the Bill Against Being Shocked by the Occupation, which will carry a prison term of five years for anyone who expresses such shock," Tibi said.



Years ago Israel should have killed Tibi, when he was an Israeli citizen giving advice to Arafat he should have been killed
