the distinction is in the timing, who started first? it wasn't his statement that triggered her, he came up with it when the water was on his face! big difference .

I support you 1000000% You were probably the only one with bollocks attending the comittee.

This woman is so disgusting. Do we see this behaviour in other democratic countries. Get her out of our Knesset and send her back to Russia.

It's already been indicated the video picks up AFTER he told her to shut up and AFTER he called her a fascist. and it's clear from watching. What's wrong with you t.b'ers. Even the party faction said "we condemn ..Majadele's statements which triggered MK Michaeli's outburst.

"Trying to link the behaviour to religion and place of birth has a name,[racism]" excuse me but racism is about race, I think you should use a dictionary before confusing religious and ethnic bigotry with racial bigotry.

I agree he shouldn't insult a lady but she is no lady

#11 asked 3 questions as to where Mrs. Michaeli learned her behavior. Not a single one of the TBers who took offense at the 3rd question Emily asked took offense at the first 2 questions she asked. What does that say about the TBers attitude? Why are they so sensitive about the 3rd question and not commenting on the behaviors questioned in Emily's points 1 and 2?

Just turn the other cheek,right Lawrence..is that it? When one turns the other cheek,they usually get smacked on the other cheek...she did just fine,don't blame her at all.

...her name sounds more Italian to me.

both are not an example for behavior in the knesset.

"Israel is a Jewish state and it does not require external affirmation to prove its Jewishness. Any such request could only weaken the state." and it was onto the face of the speaker of these words that Mrs. Michaeli threw water! Mrs. Michaeli you shot yourself and your party in the foot.

What a load crap you write on your post!!! If someone raises their voice on you then you get physical? Is that what you teach your kids? This is not shook a carmal, you know. She could have waited for him to finish and then responded in the same manner he spoke if she wanted to. But this princess feels extra special. She must act like she in a bar getting hit on by a stranger. Zaobi also did the same while back, and it was wrong. Remember that? This is how adults behave, dear. Violence in any form is wrong. She accomplished nothing by throwing water. She proved that she is willing to stoop lower than Zaobi.

or maybe Emily's first two questions were obvious. Emily's 3rd question is where she stepped over the line and therefore drew condemnation. Atleast pretend to have some intelligence to perform mild extrapolation.

she threw it because she felt empowered as a woman, and as such, believes she will be vindicated for behavior unbecoming of an MK. There is a big push for women's rights in Israel, in addition to the many rights already possessed by this demographic, mostly brought by issues in the IDF and the Haradim community, and some people are trying to take advantage of it. MK Michaeli is one of them.

Abort ship now before its too late.

No, my friends. Israel is well alive, and she is defended not only by Jewish people, but, also, by all decent and conscious citizens around the world. Incidents like the refered, into Knesset, and worst ones, have occurred several times, in my country and many others. Democracy has a price, but it is always better than dictatorial forced silence. Salutes.

Arabs in Government is the same as" the fox guarding the hen house" Israel WAKE UP!!!
