lets flip one word.

replace Israel with USA.

Some people of Arab Origin killed others in the USA. Does that mean no Arabs can buy property in the US ?

That IMHO, is what democracy is all about.

cheers, kumar

They don't want to sell homes to people who want to kill them.

As far as I know, the Arab citizens of Israel have been pretty quiet. It is laws like this that would push them to the other side.

LB,

When at least three billion dollars of foreign aid is given to Israel, unconditionally every year, at the expense of American taxpayer dollars, you better believe it is our right to question how wisely our tax dollars are being spent abroad. And right now, supporting a nation which imposes apartheid and subsidizes occupation isn't exactly at the top of my list when you consider the cutbacks on the many worthwhile social programs in "this" country which would benefit Americans.
