MK Zahalka: Yishai's proposal is racist and anti-democratic

Published: 06.03.09, 21:54 / Israel News

Balad Chairman MK Jamal Zahalka said that a bill Interior Minister Eli Yishai plans to propose granting him the right to revoke citizenship is "racist and anti-democratic".

 

"The aim is to revoke citizenship from Arabs alone, not Jews – not even Yigal Amir. Yishai wants to cancel legal orders and take control of matters of political vengeance. Revoking of citizenship is prohibited by international law – our citizenship is not a gift but derives from our being people of this land," he said. (Sharon Roffe-Ofir)
