Western Galilee kibbutz closes its pool to Israeli Arab swimmers

But the Israelis wouldn't do something like that, would they?

GENEVA - An attempt to end Israel's long isolation from the Red Cross humanitarian movement hit a snag Tuesday as Muslim opponents used procedural moves to block progress at a decisive international conference, delegates said.

The International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, which opened Tuesday and is expected to conclude Wednesday, is being asked to approve changes to meet Israeli demands of almost six decades that it be granted full membership without using the cross or crescent to identify itself.

But Red Cross officials hosting the conference confirmed that the meeting's validity had been challenged. They declined to identify the delegation that filed the motion because the session was being held behind closed doors.

"At the moment we've hit a rock, so things have ground to a halt," said Ian Piper, spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross.

Racism is ugly, no matter the victim or the perpetrator!

...then run whimpering to the UN when they got their asses kicked, in order to garner international opinion against Israel.

Perhaps it would have been better to write out all of the Arab nations that has/have attacked her? Would that appease you?!

On edit: Perhaps you should read the post I was responding to, and be sure to educate him as well. :eyes:

Activists say settlers sabotaged efforts to assist Palestinians

<snip>

"Three Israeli peace activists claimed on Saturday they were assaulted by a group of Jewish settlers at the village of Hirbat Tuwana near the West Bank city of Hebron.

The peace activists say 15 masked settlers tried to prevent them from delivering water to the local Palestinian residents.

"Some 15 masked youths suddenly appeared just as I was finishing to fill the well. They threw the hose out of the well, closed it and claimed the water was theirs alone," Yoel Maharshak, a top peace activist, said.

Maharshak said their activities were coordinated with the IDF which sent 10 soldiers to escort them.

He complained, however, that the allocated soldiers did nothing to stop the settlers and were allegedly seen conversing with them."

but what does this have to do with the I/P conflict?

As to yr question, Israeli Arabs aren't part of the I/P conflict, like Israeli Jews and Palestinians are? Of course, next time one of those articles about an Antisemitic incident anywhere else in the world appears, I expect you to be there asking 'what does this have to do with the I/P conflict?' ;)
