High Court: Ban on students from PA 'unreasonable'
2006-12-19
The High Court of Justice on Monday called a sweeping ban against Palestinian students studying at Israeli universities unreasonable and gave the army 60 days to establish criteria for admitting at least some Palestinians into the country for studies. The court also ordered the state to allow Sawsan Salameh, a Palestinian doctoral student in chemistry who won a full scholarship from the Hebrew University, to continue her studies beyond the six months granted her so far by the state. The interim decision came in the wake of a petition filed on Salameh's behalf by the human rights organization Gisha (Access.)

#6  How many paleos does it take for a "cell"?
I'm guessing that that's how many they have to admit.

#4  I thought that judges were supposed to rule on legal issues, not make determinations of what they think is reasonable or unreasonable. I, for one, don't understand why the Israelis don't drive the "Palestinians" (since they have been in "refugee" camps for almost 60 years, they should be called "the unwanted") across the border into the waiting arms of their Arab brethern and kill any of them attempting to cross back into Israel.

#3  That's only fair. We accepted German students in our physics programs in the 1940s, right?

#2  Let's all hope that Salameh's chemistry studies don't involve high explosive, nuclear or biological applications. Israel continues to slash at its own wrists.
