Selon ce billet d’« opinion » du JPost, une récente loi israélienne ne devrait pas être considérée comme « ségrégationniste » ou « raciste », à moins de considérer qu’Israël même est fondé sur des principes ségrégationnistes et racistes. Hum... cruel dilemme.
Terra Incognita : The acceptance committee conundrum
►http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=242759
The hypocrisy that exists in certain sectors of Israeli society raises a fake outrage about a “segregation” law, a law that merely enshrines what has always existed. The notion of the acceptance committee and all its pseudosociological findings of “social unsuitability” smacks of elitism and in many cases may hide racism behind “cultural” excuses. But this is not the main problem.
The central issue is that when the Supreme Court considers this law it should consider whether the committees currently used by 1,000 communities in Israel are also valid. It should not be legal for kibbutzim founded many years ago to be allowed to uphold an institution that is considered illegal in other communities that were founded more recently. Either all be allowed to have acceptance committees or none should. It shouldn’t be considered “racist” for some and not for others.
