Hanin Zoabi

Hanin Zoabi.

I am not even sure what to say.

Is she a manifestation of a tremendously vibrant and broad democracy or is she a manifestation of us being so open-minded our brains have fallen out?

Some have called Zoabi a traitor. She might not be worthy of sitting in the Knesset... she might be guilty of incitement.. maybe there are some other things wrong with her and what she said... but I am not sure the word traitor applies. Traitor is more like - did she sell State secrets or not.. I am not sure that making a comment about the frustration of the Palestinians and not being terrorists qualifies for status of treason and traitorhood...

(by the way, I heard her on the radio today - they asked her if she is related to the young Mohammed Zoabi who's life has been threatened. She said she does not know, she comes form a very large family and does not know them all - in case you were curious..)
