You make my point. I, intentionally, didn't differentiate between Arab and Jewish Israeli citizens, the keywords being "Israeli citizens." My question was facetious and should have been addressed to #1. Maybe I should have put it more bluntly: Why does someone, who, based on his/ her s/n appears not to be an Israeli citizen, rail against the Israeli system that's, basically, none of his/her business? Why doesn't that person complain about the lousy situations brought on by his/her own government and demand changes from it? If things in Israel are so incorrigibly bad for some people, why don't they pack up and leave? I could be wrong, but I don't believe Israel keeps anyone's feet nailed to the ground. In terms not limited to money, it might be a lot cheaper in the long run for Israel to spring for the tickets or mode of transportation to wherever.
