Arab families in Jewish neighborhoods ► A growing phenomenon in Haifa

More and more Arab families have been buying apartments from Jews in recent years, and are moving into neighborhoods that previously had only a Jewish population. "This is a very sensitive issue," says a veteran Haifa contractor.

"I've been building in Haifa for over 20 years," says a Haifa contractor, "and that's why I prefer to be interviewed without my name being mentioned. "I do construction projects and new projects all over the city, in Carmel, Bat Galim and other neighborhoods. In the last decade, many of my projects also have a family One or two Arabic. Many times these are young families, when the spouses are engaged in liberal professions, and they come from outside Haifa, because they want to live here and raise their children here."

"It has already become normative"

"Sometimes the apartments cost over NIS 2 million, and they pay without any difficulty, even though like many Jews, they also usually have a portion coming from the mortgage. I really don't remember a single case over the years, that there was any problem with such a family in one of my buildings. I also don't remember raising an eyebrow, God forbid, on the part of Jewish families. It clearly became a normative thing, and Arabs today live in every neighborhood in the city, and that's a good thing."

"As for the opposite trend, I know less because I don't build in neighborhoods with an Arab majority, but from what I know there are Jews in Wadi Nisnas, for example, and it has become trendy to live there. The only problem I encounter when a young Arab family is interested in buying an apartment in Carmel, they immediately They ask where there are kindergartens or schools for the Arab population and in neighborhoods with a Jewish majority there are no educational institutions for Arabs. It requires them to drive to a different neighborhood every morning and some of them are reluctant to do so."

Personal security in Haifa, compared to the Arab settlements

"I live in an Arab settlement, and I am very happy here, because I live next to my father-in-law and mother-in-law. My father-in-law built us a private house here and it is very comfortable for us," says N. "My husband also sometimes works night shifts and it's convenient for me that my relatives are next to me. My brother, on the other hand, lives on Einstein Street in Haifa, and when we visit him, I really think that maybe I should also move and live near him. Which really concerns me and my girlfriends who live here as well In other settlements around, it is our personal safety and that of the children. Not long ago there was a young girl who was in her room and a bullet hit her and killed her. After incidents like this I ask myself, am I raising my son in a safe enough place? I feel that Israeli society is not at all interested in what what happens in the Arab settlements. The amount of illegal weapons in our country is crazy. When someone innocent is murdered, for a moment all the beautiful souls are very sorry, but in practice no one goes out and demonstrates and demands the police to enter the Arab settlements and clean the residents here of all their weapons. Why do we have to tolerate this I certainly understand my brother and many others like him, who bought apartments for 1.5 million NIS and sometimes even less, and at least they know they have nothing to worry about being shot in the middle of the street."

Some landlords are reluctant

But not everything is rosy. "My husband and I lived in a small housing unit in Carmel, when our son was born," says the resident of the city in her 30s. "After the child was born, the apartment became too small for us and we looked for a bigger apartment. I was born in Haifa and my Hebrew is very good, but when I called to inquire about an apartment, they heard my accent and my name and I felt hesitation on the part of the apartment owners. What hurt me the most is that in one of the apartments my husband And we came to see and we were very excited, they told us that it was actually not relevant. After some time we saw again, that the apartment was being advertised and we picked up the phone. We said that we would gladly give all the checks and everything that is needed, we have no problem, but still we were told that the apartment is not up for rent. I asked a friend of mine to check for me if it was really not possible to rent the apartment, and it turned out that only we were told that. In the end, we found a much better apartment in the center of Carmel, renovated with new furniture, and they happily rented it to us. It is still very offensive, that some people do not want to rent to Arabs I'm a citizen of the State of Israel just like anyone else, I have no problem paying, I don't make noise or anything, it's ugly racism not to rent me an apartment."

Housing solutions for new couples

Raja Zaatara, chairman of Hadash in the city council: "For more than twenty years now, the Arab residents of Haifa have not only lived in the historic Arab neighborhoods such as Wadi Nisnas, Abbas, Wadi Jamal-Ein Haim or Halisa. These neighborhoods are already crowded and do not offer housing solutions for new couples. That is why they are moving to neighborhoods relatively close to the historic center, such as The French Carmel and Hader Alyon. And also to new neighborhoods such as Neot Peres and Ramat Hanasi. This trend is getting stronger and there are also couples who also live in the prestigious Ridge neighborhoods.

"Haifa is the Tel Aviv of Arab society"

"Usually these are middle-class academics, doctors, engineers, etc., with an above-average income who can afford it. Some of them improve housing from the old neighborhoods but also new residents who come and settle in the city because of work or studies. There is positive immigration also as a result of the state of the Arab settlements and the inequality in resources and development in those settlements. Haifa is also a center of cultural activity with a secular character and this attracts quite a few young people. In this context, it can be said that Haifa is the Tel Aviv of Arab society."

"There are no services for the Arab residents in the mixed neighborhoods"

"I think that for the most part the neighborly relations between Jews and Arabs are quite good," says Zaatra. "However, the main problem lies with the municipality: in these neighborhoods there are no cultural, educational and community services for the Arab residents, so most of them send their children to the old schools in Abbas and Wadi Nisnas. When the municipality plans, it thinks only of Jews and does not think, for example, of kindergartens or day care centers for Arab children. We saw it in the new southern neighborhoods, and also recently in Stella Maris's project in the plenary of the local planning and construction committee. The planners talk about a synagogue, a Jewish school, but there is no thought or planning for Arab residents. Although in this case it is land that belonged to the monastery and is located In an area relevant to Arabs because it is close to the Abbas neighborhood and the French Carmel.

As part of our activity in the city council, we demand, for example, the establishment of an Arab state school in the west of the city, which will serve the residents of the French Carmel, Wadi Jamal-Ein Hayam. We demand that community and cultural services be taken care of in such areas. The residents pay full property taxes but receive only partial services. Unfortunately, Klish scattered quite a few promises in this direction, but in the test of the result, nothing was done."

Selling to those who pay more

"When we sold our apartment in the new Rommah," says Sharon, in her early 40s, "many couples came to us, most of them Jewish but there were also quite a few Arabs. It really didn't matter to us. When we put the apartment up for sale, there was already one neighbor Arab. For us, we wanted to sell to whoever would pay the most, what does it matter to me if I sell to a Jew or a Muslim? In the end, we sold to a young Muslim couple who wanted to live in Haifa so that the children could study at the nuns' school. A lovely couple, we had no problem selling to them The apartment. On the other hand, we bought the apartment ourselves from a Jewish couple who caused us a lot of problems and in the end we had to sue them. You have to sell an apartment to decent people, Jews or Muslims, it really doesn't matter."

The Jewish character was preserved

It is important to emphasize that even in neighborhoods where a relatively large number of Arab families live, such as Carmel Sarfati, Hadar and Sderot Hanasi, the Jewish identity is preserved. The Jewish holidays are observed, whether it is the quiet of Yom Kippur or the Sukkot holiday, which Sukkots are visible throughout the neighborhood. Neighbor disputes also exist, often to the point of mutual abuse or violence and sometimes even end up in courts, but this is not necessarily related to Jews and Arabs and most of them are actually between Jewish neighbors who cannot tolerate living side by side. The only place, or at least the main one, where there is tension between Jews and Arabs is the German colony. Pro-Palestinian demonstrations are often held there, Palestinian flags are raised, and often times hard-to-hear calls for inclusion are heard, which also sometimes results in reactions from opposing groups who come to respond and make their voices heard in the face of these demonstrations.

Adv Osher Takatash (private album)

"a premeditated act"

Usher Takatash, attorney from the Likud in Haifa: "This is not a matter of chance, but of a pre-planned act that I call the 'quiet occupation.' years. The state and the municipality gave up on Haifa. Instead of trying to strengthen the city mainly economically, they decided to form a "change" coalition - in the Knesset with Abbas and in Haifa with Zatra. Instead of tens of thousands of young residents who grew up in the city and leave for the center, Kiryat and the Carmel Castle, we receive Arabs from the Galilee whose goal to conquer and take over the city. It's even weirder to hear that they buy the houses with cash while our young people have to wait for a cynical lottery after donating their blood to the state. Today they demand a kindergarten and a school in the Jewish neighborhood and tomorrow they will demand a mosque and an imam from the Islamic movement."

  1. He walked over to us.
    The nation of Israel is disappearing.
    And I would say what I think about those who sell to them, but oh well! ,,,,,,

  2. I'm in favor of mixing populations, but this guarantee should be complete: we don't need Jewish and Arab schools and thieves, but we need to adapt a curriculum that suits and respects both Jewish and Muslim culture, and even Christian culture.
    We need to build an infrastructure for a truly shared life, and not just at launch points

    • Tired of all the requests, the Ministry of Education dropped all kinds of projects that were important to the Jews. He prayed to him with 'let him go to my heart. Private book. Tired of folding and accommodated everyone's wishes. Just not what belongs to the Jewish people. There are schools intended for the Arab population, the contents of the Koran, and the Christians have enough to think about the other, and in the end we were left without any memory of the Jewish people's past, except for Tanach and Hebrew studies
      What the Minister of Education decided today. Those who do not care about our past will not be able to hold on to this land because what holds us together and connect together they will understand. Independence Day How much we fought and how many attacks we went through in the West. Live with us
      And immediately there are shortages and they don't stop, we know that they want Jews to flee the country and they will rule here. There was a time in the past when Jews left the country because of riots by the Arabs and were afraid.
      Because the Arabs are not ready to give up and thus hurt
      our need. And the number of Jews will decrease in this country
      Thanks to time, they continue to harm the Jews and harm our symbols.

  3. It makes sense that they don't want to sell or rent to the Arabs that the Palestinian flag is their flag and are sure that the Jews are only here temporarily.
    If the Arabs behaved like ordinary citizens then there would be no problem with them.

    • It's really naive of each of you to go after the religious. And what Rabbi Neharedim who live among us proves, many of them enlisted and volunteered for the community
      Let it be known to you that they know that they donate transplants to people who need transplants, shame on you Jews
      Whoever killed the king of the land, an ultra-Orthodox Jew, enough to go against them racist Jews!!!

  4. I don't understand what the noise is about. Haifa has been a mixed city since its founding and it is clear that its Arab residents have to live somewhere. And whoever finds it as a surprise, has a problem. It was completely expected and seems natural to me. It's a move that will continue and expand, and that's fine. Those who do not get along with this will have to leave Haifa.
    (By the way, the high price tactic was used a long time ago by the religious population in the Neve Sha'anan neighborhood. As a resident of the neighborhood for 53 years, I see quite a few streets that have become inhabited purely by the religious population, by the rabbi's mitzvot, so I heard).

  5. You Haifaites claim a garden of existence, so there is nothing to complain about. A day will come and Haifa will be a city with a Muslim majority and then coexistence will disappear because they know how to control their public. Good luck Haifaim

  6. Haifa has always been a place where coexistence and harmony between Jews and Arabs have been established
    The fact that you say occupation is not true at all, occupation is occupying free houses, but these are buyers and as they said before, they pay and have no problem
    I have Jewish girlfriends who are more important to me than sisters, we are one family
    The residents of Haifa participate together whether it is in joy or in mourning
    One disturbed family is not an example for the Arabs.. these are all the participants who came from the territories and know how to live at the state's expense more than the residents
    I have four sons who have been married for over 14 years and are unable to buy apartments because the mortgage makes it difficult for them
    The natives of Haifa have the first right
    And I think that new tenants should be asked to contact each other before selling to them, no matter if they are Arab or Jewish

  7. I want to live in Sakhnin! So will they give it to me? The state annexes Haifa and the north. Only the state of Tel Aviv will remain - shame!

  8. I prefer Arab families who want to raise their children in a good and normative neighborhood than ultra-Orthodox families who try to take over our lives!!!!!!!!!!

    • You are absolutely right. The day of road closures on Saturdays is not far away...

  9. As a Jewish resident of Wadi Nis Nas, I wonder how I would react to the opposite sentence: Jews in Arab neighborhoods - a growing phenomenon. The choice of the word "phenomenon" does not bring the reader to happy news. The very fact that according to the author of the article this is considered a "phenomenon" speaks volumes. jarring and painful.

  10. Yesterday an article was published in Hai Pa about Arab families coming to live in Jewish neighborhoods in Haifa.
    I don't think there was any bad intention behind Michal Yaron's words, but as a slightly more critical reader I had a feeling of racism towards the Arab group in Haifa. I have many Arab friends in Haifa. They live in all kinds of neighborhoods in the city, I have Arab friends who live in Tivon. Both of them want to live their lives more comfortably. just like us
    The article provoked reactions bordering on incitement towards Arabs. This is exactly what is happening to Jews around the world. then and now
    I think that as a newspaper whose name lives on in the Internet mouth of the residents of Haifa, you should represent all the residents of Haifa. This is a newspaper not only for Jews to stimulate the feeling of common life and not polarized life.

  11. Adv. Osher Taketesh is right, everything is aimed at conquering Haifa.
    The city is lost. Arab crime is rampant, massacres like in the village.
    Too bad

  12. Ugh, I don't want to live with Jews. What racists. Dark reactions like anti-Semitism in Europe.

  13. In which Arab settlement do you agree that a Jew will build a villa or that a Jewish neighborhood will be built?
    Do Dalia and Usafia agree? Can a Jew live in Shafaram and have a synagogue there?
    I don't think the reverse situation should be allowed to the same extent.
    If there is no symmetry, then there is no need for one-way asymmetry only.
    This is my answer to the contractor and to the comments here.
    The cultural mentality and extreme nationalism do not allow for coexistence, this is clear after the events of May 2021 for all of us.

  14. Woe betide the lawyer who does not differentiate between a legal civil action of buying an apartment and a military action of occupation. How did you get a lawyer's certificate?

  15. As part of the transformation of Haifa into the pig capital. It works out well that the stupid left is giving up on Haifa

    • Just like that. The groups of Bir Zeit University on Carmel and Bir Zeit Ramat Aviv..
      Encouraging defeatism, alienation, disengagement, escape, departure, peace camp and bye.

  16. The government does not care about the pollution in Haifa and the tens of thousands of residents who have died as a result over the years. So why would you care to take care of a foreign foot trampling the delicate nature of the city? Haifa is Israel's backyard, the slums, sell your apartments and move to the center, or to more normal settlements with acceptance committees, the city of Ladavoni is and will remain dysfunctional until some breaking point.

  17. In 1933 in Germany there were those who said the same thing as in this racist article about the Jews in Aryan neighborhoods

  18. for peace
    But as soon as there is combat such as Wall Guard we will be in trouble.
    Look what is happening in Lod / Ramla

  19. Do they want to move forward? They want housing solutions in a comfortable and patient environment, the way the environment is going to change, that's natural, the Jews are going to the fence and here in Haifa they will speak less and less Hebrew and smoke more and more hookahs, there will be almost no Jews here. You just have to remember that a Muslim mayor will not allow pigs (pig in their language) to roam freely right between the houses and in the streets - there will be far fewer pigs here... So how long do you give the pigs, 5 years? At most 10 years?

  20. Build a new neighborhood for Arabs in Haifa and anywhere in the country. They could not live in Jewish neighborhoods for Jews to build anywhere in the country. Israel is not a democratic country, it is a country of nose and mouth, this is the reality, so stop complaining

    • Gilly, you think they are dangerous. Their houses are mostly villas. They have no awareness of the cultivation and ornamentation in the yard, nor do they have a garden. sewerage. Everything is a choice. But they choose to breed within us so that Jews will run away from them and this is what we call occupation. In fact, look at how people walk around today with the flags and say few, but their behavior is as if millions are doing it. Because they all do and are not beautiful everyone who thought that most of them want peace. How naive

  21. Shame of a title! You should be ashamed! I live in Wadi Nis Nas - what would you say if another newspaper said "Jews in an Arab neighborhood - a growing phenomenon?" Or in Europe a similar headline: "More and more Jews are moving to this or that city?" Why is it even an issue to treat him? Who are you telling this to? For the residents of Haifa? provoke another provocation? shame! It is a shame that the Haifa newspaper does not faithfully represent all the residents of the city.

    • What's wrong with the title? Why should be ashamed? Freedom of speech and freedom of the press don't seem right to you? What title do you want, do you want no articles that interest the public? If you lived in another settlement, then there might have been other articles there, for example, Jewish families return to the Jewish settlement in Sakhnin or Jewish families return to the Jewish settlement Majd al-Khrum, everything can be legitimate, even headlines and articles that interest the public. You can simply have a dialogue about the matters at hand.

    • My response to Ruti Almog. Dear Mrs. Hanava, you are a wonderful writer. Dear Madam, after the occupation, the Jews lived there. So the Arabs didn't live there in the lower city, there were Jews, we lived on Caesarea St. And my cousins ​​lived there.
      In Wadi even before the establishment of the state and very few neighbors were Arabs. So that's it. There was a time when the Jews left their homes in the lower city and went up to normalize. There remained houses that the Jews left behind. And what happened in 1990, you will start to flood the lower city with Arabs who came from the villages. They entered the apartments that were closed, in short they invaded the apartments. Then the municipality suddenly e
      They were required to support and help these families. Many budgets began to be transferred to welfare and it became increasingly difficult to support them. Then the mayor found out that they were here because they had invaded and evicted them. The families are distressed families and have returned to their villages. And in recent years, Einat Klish Dov was cold and did not respond, so recently there have been shootings and criminals in the neighborhood. So anyone who ignored it will understand that we ate it, the shots went to Jewish cities.

    • Gitas? you are sane? The one who inhabits the universities of the United States, drives around and points to our haters, the Gazans, the Lebanese, dies before we fly out of here, does not do military service, and lives in huge castles with the moneylenders living in ghettos?

    • So it is that we have a quality of living, gardens, grasses and well-kept people, what sane Jew would dare to go to the wretched places in their cities and villages? Ugly houses, blocks of blocks and concrete without color, without urban planning, without trees, parks and nature... but hey, it's good that they rattle off the never-ending mantra about the 'land' which is soooooo important...

    • Then and always Jews also lived in Wadi Nisnas. I lived in Haifa and Jews lived there, but over time only more Arabs joined the rebels from their villages.

  22. Now you got an answer as to why Haifa became the main crime city in the country.

  23. Amazing. A whole article about how the Arabs dare to leave their ghettos. Soon they will also demand the right to vote

    • Arabs do not live in ghettos. Those who cannot live anywhere in Israel are the Jews. The Jews, most of whom serve in the IDF regularly and in the reserves for decades, are the ones who live in ghettos and are discriminated against compared to those who do not serve in the IDF and do not even volunteer for national service, most of them are Arabs. Jewish Israel is soon going to concentrate between its fence and its room, so according to the Defense Minister, Haifa is not in this area, someone here is waking up too late and soon there will be no Jews left here, someone in the leadership has forgotten that the Jews need to be taken care of as well.

    • Gitas? you are sane? The one who inhabits the universities of the United States, drives around and points to our haters, the Gazans, the Lebanese, dies before we fly out of here, does not do military service, and lives in huge castles with the moneylenders living in ghettos?

    • Nonsense are pointers. Those who have no right are those who are not citizens of Israel. They are beyond the green line and in Jerusalem. Don't be surprised one debate will be a Muslim mayor in Jerusalem because 400 thousand Arabs annexed. But they have no right. Already in the previous elections, they made all kinds of comments about not being allowed to vote. The left will deal another blow to us

  24. How naive and stupid we Jews can be. Another family and another. Where will our grandchildren grow up. Don't be surprised that the descendants of Hassan Shukri and Abdel Rahman will manage the city in Hassan Shukri's offices in 15-20 years. We probably don't deserve a state, if we sell our property at a high price, as a resident of Neve Shanan said. Where will your grandchildren grow up ma'am???

  25. In the next step they will start shooting at each other and at the Jews and then we will have to run. A house with Arab neighbors directly processes a price because they smoke hookahs.

    • What a collection of nonsense... what does hookah have to do with it? Do the cigarette smoking neighbors not bother you? Of course it is. from experience. The smoke reaches all the neighbors.

    • In 1936 Arabs and Jews lived here. It was fine until the mufti decided to expel the Jews. In the mosques they talked about incitement. My grandmother was born in Israel and is the mother of 9 children. Lives in Wadi Rushmia surrounded by Arab neighbors. Because of a children's argument, her neighbor murdered her. It was in the Haifa wilds. The first woman murdered in 1936. So those who are willing to believe them will think twice. Neighbors shoot at their daughter.
      Wake up Jews who believe in coexistence. They are what they are doing today when they enter Haifa, it is called an occupation for them.. They are not today. They are ashamed to say this, Ahmed Tibi also said in the Knesset. Do not want occupation. They want peace, so there is no occupation. I prefer that all the Jews return to their country from where they came, he told them. Idiots prefer to forget that we once again passed an example at the gates of the Walls in May. I really felt my grandmother's time.

  26. There is no strength for the endless complaints, it's exhausting. First, they attack policemen who enter the villages because they don't want, God forbid, the Israel Police to interfere in the lives of the Arabs, then they cry, why don't the police enter
    First they educate for violence, then they are surprised why there is violence
    First you make problems, then you cry why there are problems. How long is this mentality. Why did Jews come out to protest about what is happening to Arabs in the Arab backwaters...we lack trouble? What are we related to? When will you take responsibility for something.. anything. It will be much more productive

    • Have you forgotten that in the October riots they didn't let the police in????
      Today they are begging.
      It's a people who only blame, they are always right...

  27. I agree with every word you say, Attorney Ofer Tkach. As someone who lives in a very mixed neighborhood and in an area where there were riots and clashes during the Wall Guard operation a year ago, I know what you are talking about. A city of coexistence is already a concept that is unfortunately losing its meaning, even if Undoubtedly, the majority of the population in the city wants to live in coexistence and enjoy the quality of life that a beautiful city like Haifa offers.

    • We vowed that their face was for peace and partnership in the construction of the homeland, although we believed them, perhaps the art of our ears, and we did not want to believe them either. In the innocence that spared them in everything, they won rights and without any obligations today, rights are enough, there is no one who does not contribute, those who destroy. place of the motherland
      not ours. They have done it with contempt since the establishment of this government. Everything in the scam was revealed. They don't want a Jewish state, they want a Palestinian state. We will fight until the last drop of blood that the government will fall and changes will be applied. in all districts

    • Say it, keep believing it, and Ototo will have to fly abroad because they come not out of love for Mordechai, but out of hatred for the Jews.. Oh, what idiots live among us..

    • Shut up Bloom in brown, wait for them to come visit them from the village and then you will understand what an Arab is who doesn't care who you are and when you want silence....

    • Your old age puts your girls to shame, you need some manly son to sort things out

  28. There is an Arab neighbor and we live in a wonderful neighborhood
    And I really love them?

  29. As long as the Israeli Arabs do not openly condemn any killing, especially of Jews, they have no right to come up with claims that they are disadvantaged, everything is clear and well known, they smile at you and are ready for any nonsense to stick a knife in the back as soon as they feel weak.

  30. In the seam between Ramat Shaul and Carmel Sarfati, many apartments were sold to Arabs. Our lives have become a nightmare. They make noise, do endless renovations. In one building here, there are more Arabs than Jews because people run away from here...and they sometimes buy blood 3-4 apartments for the rest of the family in 8-tenant flats!

  31. This is nothing compared to the ultra-Orthodox takeover of the Neve-Shaanan neighborhood.

    • All the governments do not care at all about Haifa and in general about the north and the Negev. It is clear and completely predictable that in the end the Jews will only be left with the state of Tel Aviv. There is no employment in Haifa, no entertainment in Haifa, lousy transportation, only a lovely sea.

    • Very true. At least half of the number are ultra-Orthodox. Kudos to the residents of old Romema who managed to prevent the Haredim from taking over the neighborhood. If they hadn't forced the rest of the neighborhood to behave like them, there wouldn't have been a problem at all. The problem is that the ultra-orthodox force their way of life on their environment and those who want to live a secular life have no choice but to leave. And this is their way of "conquering" their environment. It's a shame that God has no leisure to pay attention to the behavior of his followers, whose decision does not exalt his name.

  32. I agree with every word the attorney wrote and the phenomenon
    Unfortunately, it is expanding and those who care to keep it
    The Jewish identity will move to live where the ultra-orthodox live.
    As Benny Gantz said (Between Hadera and Gedera).
    I have a lot of respect for Arabs and Christians, but everyone
    in its place. Not one inside the other

    • very true
      each in his place. Many more tears will turn into a stream because they preferred the Arabs. Then late idiots how because of brotherly hatred where have you degraded. Look at the bloody government where they have brought us. With a moron!??

  33. I also want to live in Shafram! In your opinion, how many minutes until they slaughter me? Try to imagine who would even sell to me and let's say that the one who would sell to me is actually leaving for the USA and not endangering himself! A country that has no right to exist but still sends its sons to unnecessary death!

  34. The problem with the Arabs is the different mentality and the hatred towards us.
    There are many Jewish families who are forced to sell their apartments because of the hostile attitude from the new neighbors.
    Most of them think that the Jews stole, deported, mistreated during the founding of the state and now is the time to pay us back.
