"...Israel is planning to deport thousands of African migrants as xenophobic anger grips the country.

According to a report in the national Haaretz newspaper, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday ordered his government to speed up plans to deport 25,000 illegal immigrants from Ethiopia, Ghana, Ivory Coast and South Sudan and to build a holding facility in the desert for asylum seekers from Eritrea, Somalia and Sudan.

...Israel is home to around 60,000 Africans, a mixture of economic migrants from poor nations and refugees from repressive countries.

In this BBC report, an elderly Israeli man advocates the shooting dead of illegal migrants while a young woman accused African migrants of sexual harrassment, criminal behaviour and, of course, of taking all the jobs and houses. A ruling party politician described migrants from Africa as "a cancer" while others regularly describe them as "infiltrators"...

Well, taking jobs and housing is definitely, "of course," a legitimate and real concern despite what the article says.

Still, one wonders why if all sorts of diversity is so good for America, why isn't it good for Israel? :confused:
