Unfortunately this bill is in a long line of such discriminatory practices, which are inevitable in a state which is 'Jewish'. The key question is whether Israel is to be a state of its own citizens, a democratic state, or a Jewish state, i.e. a state of only some of its citizens.

I support this petition. To evict a student and subject him to this kind of harassment because he refused to shake the President's hand shows, more convincingly than anything else, that Israel is not a democracy in any meaningful sense.

I support this petition. Zionism is a form of Apartheid. International solidarity with the Palestinians demands a Boycott of the Israeli economy, divestment and sanctions. I am proud to say that my own union, the local government workers UNISON, has just such a position. Tony Greenstein Brighton & Hove UNISON Unitary Branch & Brighton & Hove District Trades Council, UK
