Israel names first Arab minister

Mr Majadele said his nomination was "great news for the Arab public"
Israel's Labour party leader has appointed Raleb Majadele as science and technology minister - making him the first Arab Muslim in Israel's cabinet.
Amir Peretz said the "historic" appointment would improve relationships among different groups in Israel.

Mr Majadele replaces Ophir Pines-Paz who quit last October in protest at the addition of ultra-nationalist party Yisrael Beitenu to the coalition.

However, Mr Majadele's appointment has drawn angry criticism.

Esterina Tartman, chairman of Yisrael Beitenu, said Mr Majadele's appointment was a "lethal blow to Zionism", the Haaretz news website reported.

They are talking about the interpretation of Zionism that relates to the old blood nationalism ideologies that emerged in Germany and Russia in the earlier part of the last century. It was not Zionism of Judah Magnes or Martin Buber. In the end, their Zionism will have to emerge when it was long rejected by the powers that be but was embarassed by many Israelis.

What was that thing about five Jewish bankers, TWG? Is that some joke or are you trying to refer to the fact that a Jew helped set up the U.S. Federal Reserve system? All these conspiracy theorie out there, eh?
