“Israeli” Knesset to Debate Homeland Bill
Local Editor
"Israel's" parliament (Knesset) is set to debate a bill that defines "Israel" as the homeland of the Jewish people, which has been criticized by some of the lawmakers as "racist."
If approved, the bill would indentify Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people, make Hebrew its official language and give Arabic a "special status."
Currently, both Hebrew and Arabic are official languages in "Israel".
The bill was submitted by "Israeli" lawmakers Avi Dichter and Zeev Elkin in August, but Leftist and Palestinian members of the parliament have described it as "racist."
Knesset member Mohammed Barakeh asked the parliament speaker Reuven Rivlin to reject the bill. However, Rivlin denied Barakeh's petition, stating that he does "not believe that we must prevent the submission."
The proposed bill will be debated by the Knesset's Legislative Affairs Committee later this week.
