The Meshutefet (Joint List) is a combined Arab party that stands practically for the dissolution of Israel as a Jewish, democratic state. It also is a communist party seeking to oppose the West as a whole. Arabs have served in parliament within several parties, including Labor, and an Arab was #2 on the list of one of the right-wing parties (which failed to cross threshold). An Arab party already served in a ruling coalition. And an Arab party that seeks the betterment of Arab populations is not a problem. But this is a party that embraces the most extreme Arab nationalism, as well as equally dangerous communism (Hadash branch). It U.S. the embodiment of the Red-Green axis attacking and seeking to destroy Israel and Western civilization as a whole. While some may even argue parties in Israel’s parliament should to take an oath of office to uphold the core founding documents, structures and institutions of the state, which is fairly common in democracies (even our own), Israel has chosen to allow such parties to sit in parliament unconditionally with full rights of parliament. But there is NO democracy in the world that has an obligation to place in the executive branch of government itself clearly subversive, hostile parties which seek to destroy the state. No democracy, simply, is obligated to commit suicide. To accuse Israel of racism for demurring on bringing in an Islamo-fascist-communist movement into the center of power of the state says more about the low quality of your mind, morals and knowledge than it says about Israel.
