成人快手 Minute: On Israel's Jewish nation state bill
Israel鈥檚 Knesset parliament has voted to pass the controversial so-called Jewish nation state bill 鈥 which defines the country as an exclusively Jewish state. It downgrades Arabic from official language status, and claims the 鈥渨hole and united鈥 city of Jerusalem as Israel鈥檚 capital.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the passage of the bill as a 鈥渄efining moment鈥, but Arab members of the Knesset ripped up copies of it in protest after the vote 鈥 with one calling the legislation 鈥渁 law of Jewish supremacy鈥.
