Call Number: CE 347Format: 1/4 3 3/4 ipsProducers: Colin EdwardsCollection: Colin Edwards Collection
Israeli-Arab Economist Elias Toma explains the situation of Palestinian citizens of Israel. He laments their minority status; living under military rule; discrimination in education, employment; and land confiscation since 1948. He exposes Israeli expropriation of Arab land for Jewish-only settlements. He also blames the Arab regimes as well as the Jewish militias for creating the refugee problem. He explains that the return of refugees to their homes is impractical and argues for their resettlement to non-Arab countries. The Israeli-Arabs connections to other Arabs are threatened by the racism of the Israeli state. He also expresses the desire of Israeli-Arabs to be equal citizens in Israel while not challenging its basic existence.
Toma discusses Arab-Israeli participation in Israeli politics including their criticisms of the State. He also argues that Arabs need to recognize the state of Israel. He argues for Jerusalem to be under international control given Israel’s discrimination towards Palestinians and other Arabs.
