Dear Sir;
I am referring to your article about the Arabs
in Israel published today. Unfortunately a few facts are missing. You were correct in stating that most Arabs in the Islamic World do not have
the freedom exercised by the Arabs in Israel. Unfortunately, The Israeli
Arabs have a leadership. This leadership assumingly expresses the opinion
of its congregants. No democracy would tolerate the behavior and attitude
of the Arab leaders in Israel, as Israel does.. Ahmad Tibi [a member of
Knesset who acted as an adviser [for full consideration] to Israel's arch
enemy – at the time Yasser Arafat while chairing a meeting of the Knesset
refused to read a letter signed by the Speaker of the Knesset [whose place he
temporarily took] as a the letter consisted of words of solidarity with
The Israeli Army. Ralb Majela, an Arab who is a member of the Government
in Israel refuses to stand up when the hatikva the
National hymn is sang in public. In Um el Fachem an Arab
city in the Galili you cannot find one Israeli flag but dozens of flags of the
PLO. Arab youth is not obligated to go to the army but it was suggested
that they do communal work. No - according to the leadership of
Israeli Arabs – as this will deny them their "national identity". A debate in the Israeli parliament took place about the living condition
of Israeli Arabs. A very important issue. All Arab members of
Knesset participated in the debate. All spoke about the
struggle of the Palestinians against Israel [favoring the Palestinian
side] Only one member of Knesset made a short statement about the Arabs
living in Israel. As this leadership do not have their congregants at
heart but the making of political fortune in the other side. Chaque Ra'ad
Salach who heads the Northern element of The Islamic movement of Israel will
not say a single word of condemnation about Shderoth, but will accuse the
Israeli of trying to conquered the Temple Mount. After the last tragedy
in Beth Hanum where a mother and four children were killed, an Arab member of
Knesset accused The Israeli Army of being [and not for the first time]
Nazis. When it was found that the mother and children were killed as an
error of one of the terrorist standing next to them arm with ammunition, when
he was blown, and that Z.H.L was not responsible, there was silence by this
leadership. Never, did Israeli Arab leaders condemn terrorist attack
against Israel without, in the same statement condemning Israel. And the
findings of Dr. Basam Bashara, an Arab member of Knesset who delivered
information to the Hizzbullah during the last war in Lebanon did not meet
any condemnation by his peers.

The Jews in Israel know what the Israeli Arabs think by witnessing their leaders.This leadership never expressed
loyalty to Israel, never supported Israel, always were at the front of
condemning Israel and are promoting the Nakba, the
"tragedy" as the Arabs in Israel see the independence of Israel.
This is a Jewish state. The US belong to the
Americans. Those of other origin [Latin, Jews from Europe, Irish
Catholics Arabs, etc. are all welcomed as equal citizens. But
it is the USA. The Muslims leaving in England so not say that England
does not belong to the British. The Arab are equal citizens.
They have more freedom here then in most Arab states. But unlike the Jews
in new York, and many Muslims in England, they never expressed their
solidarity. They always prove that they are a fifth column. This is
the real Nakba of the Arabs in the streets of Israel and he has his leaders to
blame.
