The victim of propaganda

Dear Michael!

I must say that a fundamental mistake crept into your article about Irteniev's emigration, which allows you to understand the “kitchen” of anti -Israeli propaganda. You write about the Arabs that the police pulled out of the Jerusalem bus, and from your material it follows that Israel is a racist state, from where it is necessary to “bring down”.

I admit that I did not see the report of my colleague Mikhail Dzhaginov, but I know the story itself well. A group of Palestinian activists who do not have the right to stay in Israel (in fact - visas) tried to get to Israel on Israeli public transport. When landing on the bus, no one asked them for documents - it was enough to take a ticket. The rest of the passengers - and these are “terrible” settlers - calmly reacted to such a neighborhood.

But when the bus reached the checkpoint, everyone demanded documents, which the inhabitants of the Palestinian autonomy did not. When they were landed from the bus, they arranged a “buch”, for which, in fact, everything was started. Judging by the fact that even you came across this fishing rod - the calculation turned out to be true. Israel once again demonstrated its "racist" essence.

In fact, Israeli Arabs enjoy all civil rights in the country. It is they who are the loudest against proposals to conclude peace with the Palestinian autonomy on the basis of the principle of exchange of territories, according to which large Jewish settlements on the western bank will move to Israel, and the Arab enclaves located on the border with autonomy will be part of the future Palestinian state.

You concluded that Israeli Arabs are forbidden to use Jerusalem public transport. Of course, this is not so. Even at the beginning of the al-axa intifada, when Arab suicide bombers were torn in Israeli buses, there was no question of not letting the Arabs into them. And when in fairly warm weather a young Arab entered the transport in a jacket and a bag (that is, potentially - with a suicide belt and with an explosive charge), the passengers quietly read “Shma Israel”, praying to carry.

Nevertheless, when the construction of a tram began in Jerusalem several years ago, it was decided to lay its route through the Arabic district of Shuafat. A new vehicle is designed to bring the north closer to the center of the capital for Israel, and the North is not only Jewish, but also the Arab areas, including those from which sucks were sent to the past.

Of course, there are discrimination cases. But the Arabs encountered with them appeal to Israeli courts, Israeli media and Israeli human rights activists. The courts have repeatedly decided to move the already built “security wall”, the task of which is to prevent Palestinian militants to prevent Israeli. This means that, unlike you, even the inhabitants of the Arab territories are convinced of the democratic nature of the Jewish state.
