Some thing Never Change - Different Players But Bigotry Still Stays the Same
Upscale Israeli Country Club Changes Rules to Prevent Arabs From Joining
"'If anyone wants to swim with Arabs, let him take them home. Here there's no place for it,' says resident of Kochav Yair-Tzur Yigal, echoing local sentiment"
“We don’t want the Arabs to swim with us,” says a Kochav Yair resident. “When they were here, it wasn’t pleasant.”
She finds nothing wrong with banning from the club anyone who doesn’t live in the local council. “It’s no big deal if that’s the price our Jewish brothers [outside the local council] have to pay.”
The residents of Tzur Yitzhak and Tzofim agree with her, perhaps because they have other ways of enjoying themselves in the summer. The idea that Jews and Arabs can share the same pool appears to many of them unacceptable"
