The Labor MKs appealed Lieberman’s bill, which would slap Nakba demonstrators with up to three years in prison.
On the day when Jews celebrate independence, Israeli Arabs, naturally, commemorate Nakba, the day of national catastrophe. Never mind that they did not think of themselves as a nation then.
The Laborites, including Welfare Minister Herzog and a former Ben Gurion University dean, say the ban violates the Arabs’ freedom of speech. By that token, we should allow Neo-Nazi propaganda, as well.
