| 1,500 Arab-Israelis, MKs protest Lebanon campaign |
| 2006-07-15 |
| Some 1,500 Arab Israelis, including Knesset members protested in Nazereth on Saturday against the campaign in Lebanon. A pamphlet distributed at the scene called on the government to "end the war crimes" and the "killing of children" that the writers alleged that Israel was performing in Lebanon. MK Wasal Taha (Balad), who also participated in the rally, told Army Radio that "undoubtedly the State of Israel is committing crimes in Lebanon: killing children, killing civilians." |

| #9 I've been to both places (Bethlehem and Nazareth), but can't say I'm all that knowledgeable except for a couple main cities. Here's a map I use from time to time to interpret news stories... |

| #7 No, it's in the northern part of the country not too far from Tiberias and the Sea of Galilee = Lake Kinneret. Bethlehem is on the west bank, though. |

| #6 nice that they went to Nazareth to do it? Isn't that in the WB proper? |

| #5 These are Israeli citizens, they have a right to protest. Even if they are completely wrong and wrong-headed. Even if they're sympathetic to the other side. Even if they'd be treasonous if given the right opportunity. And it's better to have them in the open so that the Mossad knows exactly who they are. |
