[Here we see once more the similarity between Israeli Jews and Whites in Africa in terms of their situation and their problem, and also that Israelis are portrayed as “racist”. Jan]

Sixty-three percent of Jews in Israel view Israeli Arabs as both a demographic threat and a security hazard, results published Wednesday in a survey conducted at the Geocartography Institute showed.

Some 70% of those asked said that they would refuse to live in Arab neighborhoods, while 40% believed that Israel needed to encourage the emigration of its Arab citizens. An identical percentage expressed its support for separation between Jews and Arabs in places of recreation.

Furthermore, one out of three Jews surveyed were of the opinion that Arab culture was ‘inferior.’

The Israeli Arab Monitoring Committee reacted to the findings with fury. “The existing racist culture in Israel is a direct result of Israel being the only country in the world that defines itself by ethnic separation,” a spokesman for the committee said.

Shuli Dichter, co-director of ‘Sikkuy’ (chance), a joint Israeli Jewish and Arab organization working for equality, claimed that the Jews in Israel needed to begin a process of education. “It is up to the Education Ministry and the government to assume a central role in this process,” Dichter concluded.
