Israel's fifth column calls for 'Palestinian' unity
Israel's fifth column - its Arab Knesset members - called for 'Palestinian' unity in the fight against Israel today. They also condemned the 'silence' of Arab countries and Fatah's alleged blaming Hamas for the Gaza 'crisis.'The Israeli Arab Higher Monitoring Committee convened for an emergency meeting Sunday to discuss the escalating violence between Israel and the Palestinians in Gaza.Someone please remind me why these people are members of Israel's legislative body.
The committee decided to draft a proposal for national unity between Hamas and Fatah in light of the situation, and plans to hold a mass rally in Umm al-Fahm Tuesday in protest of the operation in the Strip.
Most of the Israeli Arab MKs attended the meeting, and stressed the importance of unity among the Palestinian factions in light of the fighting.
"Israel is using the rift between the Palestinian factions to continue the military operations and torpedo the peace process," Said Committee head Shawki Khatib.
"Only through true Palestinian unity can the Palestinians deal with the Israeli offensive. Our mission, as part of the Palestinian people… is to help our brothers deal with these existential challenges."
MK Jamal Zahalka claimed that "an offensive on Gaza is an offensive on the entire Palestinian Authority, with everything that this entails." Both Zahalka and MK Talab el-Sana (United Arab List-Ta'al) condemned Fatah officials for saying that Hamas was responsible for the escalation in the Strip.
El-Sana's party member MK Ibrahim Sarsour criticized the lack of support for Gaza's plight in the Arab world. "Israel has been committing war crimes for 60 years, and the pain caused by the bloodshed is coupled by the silence of the Arab world."

They are in Israels legislative body for the same reason that Obama, Clinton, Pelosi,Reid,,the list goes on and on, are in ours....To take a great country an "change" it into something less than great so that the world will like us.
You have Arabs calling for Israels advasaries to go up against Israel and we got Mrs. Obama making speeches teling our up and comming generation to not partake in corporate America.
Hence, we both have enemies in our countries positions of power working full steam ahead to weaken us as much as possible.
Hey, any idea when Obama's Islamic milatant brother in Kenya is going to join the fray in Gaza...oh well I suppose we wont find out via the news in any case but if ya spot him, holler out.
I clicked on the comment button to answer your question with: "for the same reason we have democrats in our legislative body."
I notice I was a little slow on the trigger though!
The shame is not that there are obvious anti-factions in either government, the shame is that the major media outlets continue to ignore this fact.
How exactly is Israel an 'apartheid' state if there are enemies, sworn enemies it seems, in government?
Things never change if one leaves an enemy with power.
Exactly. Why such people are not prosecuted for treason and hanged is beyond me. The Arabs owe no loyalty to the State Of Israel when it is under attack. They should be expelled from Israel.
It would help if leaders, ours and Israel's, studied the Islamic Awakening, the different leaders and their writings (such as Preachers, Not Judges, Islamic Awakening Between Rejection and Extremism), to learn that when formally militant groups, such as the Muslim Brotherhood, abandoned violence, they did not abandon their ultimate aims, but just their tactics--politics, education, preaching, for now.
drider,
It's funny. I'm in Boston now and when we arrived the TV was going on customs and I saw Obama and all I heard was "change, change, change." No substance. And then in the taxi home, the driver had the 'news' on (clearly there was a debate tonight, right?) and I hear Obama talking utter nonsense, and the driver asks me who that he is because he sounds very intelligent.
We had an election a couple of years ago in which a party with no positions ran and won. It's leader was Ehud K. Olmert. I don't wish him or his ilk on America. Yuck.
Orde,
It would help, but they will never do it.
